ERDF – Electric vehicle charging infrastructure powered by solar production (Réunion)
The regional action sheet covers electric vehicle charging infrastructure combined with a stand-alone solar installation. The catalogue mentions companies, associations, public bodies and local authorities, with priority announced for projects by micro-businesses and SMEs. The rate, cap, any technical requirements and opening conditions must be checked in the current regional action sheet.
Installing charging points can support the electrification of transport, but grid connection and electricity supply are major issues on an island. The ERDF scheme listed in Réunion targets electric vehicle charging infrastructure powered by stand-alone solar production. The project must demonstrate consistency between energy production, charging equipment and planned uses.
