Electric cars, free parking in Holland


The electric cars in Amsterdam will not pay the parking . They established local institutions to promote the use din this type of vehicle. Purchase a one has the right to a free on-street parking near their homes, built with an attached pedestal charge against the municipality. Not only that, it provides free electricity produced from renewable sources. A proposal very attractive, which in the Dutch city will be appreciated even more because of the parking problem that is very scarce and expensive.


That thought dalla'mministrazione is probably the most convincing possible. The project started in 2009 with an investment of 200 places to run out in 2012. The goal has been reached in advance, however, so the plan was revived on the other 1000-equipped car. The City of Amsterdam wants to get to have a fleet with at least 5% of the cars to electric propulsion , which means at least 10,000 cars. Amsterdam has spent € 5 million for these lots have been allocated and another 3 million to encourage local companies to use electric cars for their fleet management.

This situation is very favorable for the automakers, like Nissan who chose the capital of the Netherlands for the European launch of the Leaf , which goes on sale on the Dutch market since March. Although Mitsubishi and Peugeot have started to sell electric cars beginning of the year . The intention is also to involve in the hybrid cars , but they must first achieve a range of 60 km with electric propulsion .
