German Chancellor Angela Merkel said she wants to drastically increase the number of charging stations for electric cars in Germany to give consumers more confidence to switch over to electric from internal combustion engines. Merkel said she wants Germany to have 1 million charging stations by 2030. Germany currently has about 21,000 charging stations.

AP also published a story about German government EV subsidies.

The German government is supercharging subsidies for electric cars on the day the country’s biggest automaker began production of a new all-electric vehicle. Chancellor Angela Merkel’s office said officials and industry representatives agreed late Monday to increase by half the existing government incentives for electric vehicles with a list price of 40,000 euros ($44,500). German news agency dpa reported that half of the subsidy, in future amounting to 6,000 euros, will be borne by industry. The subsidy will also be extended from the end of 2020 currently to the end of 2025.
