The Government trusts that the window for the presentation of projects to Part II of the Electric and Connected Vehicle (Perte VEC) will open in the first half of July. This was announced this Tuesday by the Minister of Industry, Commerce and Tourism, Héctor Gómez, at the press conference after the meeting of the Council of Ministers, where he indicated that the Executive will launch the two lines of which the program will be composed . These are one for batteries and another for projects related to the electric car value chain.
The first one will have 550 million in grants and 287 million in soft loans, making a total of 837 million euros for the automotive industry. Of the second line, the minister did not specify how many funds he will have, although in a meeting held in June between Industry and the sector it was explained that he will make some 559.6 million available to the engine. This line has been unlocked thanks to the fact that the European Commission published the exception regulation by category in recent days.
In this way, the Executive finally launches one of its star Perte (it was the first to launch, although the one with the most funds is the so-called Perte Chip), which left 75% of the funds unallocated last year . Back then, 2.182 million euros remained uncovered, which were expected to be used in the Perte VEC II. Finally, this second call will have about 772 million less (in total, it would be about 1,409.6 million), pending confirmation of the line of projects in the electric vehicle value chain.
To compensate, Gómez recalled that the Executive has already announced a Perte VEC III, which will have 1,200 million in loans and some 250 million in grants, charged to the addendum to European funds. This represents a substantial change compared to the first two calls, since most of the funds will be loans. “We are talking about a call between the VEC II and III for more than 3,000 million euros”, highlighted Gómez.
In addition, the minister has highlighted other measures of the Executive to promote the electrification of the Spanish car park, such as the deduction of 15% in personal income tax on a maximum of 20,000 euros for buyers of electrified cars. Added to the Moves III Plan to help purchase electric vehicles and install charging points, an individual can access aid of up to 10,000 euros to purchase an electric car of up to 54,450 euros.
