As Belgium continues its transition to greener mobility, interest in electric vehicles continues to grow. This trend is driven by a collective desire to reduce our carbon footprint, but also by tax incentives introduced in recent years.

However, from January 1, 2025the federal tax reduction for the installation of a home charging station is no longer applicable.

However, there are still regional and professional subsidies available in 2025. Here’s the latest information from the experts at Vectura.

Things to remember

  • The federal tax reduction no longer exists as of January 2025.
  • Some regional or local assistance are still available, especially for condominiums and businesses.
  • Installing a terminal remains profitable in the long termeven without tax benefits.
  • The company cars can still be recharged at home with electricity reimbursement.

What is a tax reduction for charging stations?

The tax reduction for the installation of home charging stations was a Belgian federal measure that allowed individuals to reduce their tax bill by 15% on the purchase and installation of an intelligent charging station.
This scheme, in force until December 31, 2024was designed to encourage individuals to adopt electric mobility and invest in environmentally-friendly recharging solutions.

Since 2025, this is no longer available to individuals individuals, but certain regions still offer local local subsidies or collective programs to encourage to encourage home recharging.

And in 2025, what kind of aid is still available?

Walloon Region

There is no longer a federal tax reduction, but some communes and communes and intercommunal support electric mobility through one-off local grants.
The companies can still benefit from deductions for green investment or aid for energy transition projects.

Brussels-Capital Region

Brussels Environment supports shared charging stations as part of the Low Emission Mobility.
Individuals living in apartment blocks can obtain assistance to install a collective recharging infrastructure.

In 2025, what are the advantages of a home charging station?

Even without direct tax benefits, installing a charging station is still a smart investment:

  • Reducing your carbon footprint : recharging at home with green electricity limits your emissions.
  • Long-term savings Long-term savings: the running costs of an electric vehicle are much lower than those of a combustion-powered vehicle.
  • Comfort and flexibility Charge your vehicle overnight or during off-peak hours, at a reduced rate.
  • Property enhancement The presence of a bollard increases the perceived value of your home.

Company vehicles

For company cars, it is still possible to reimburse the electricity used at home for recharging.

The amount of the reimbursement depends on an official tariff set every three months by the CREG (a public body), and varies by region:

  • Brussels : 0.3294 per kWh
  • Wallonia : 0.3256 € per kWh

In plain English, this means that an employee can charge his or her company car at home without paying out of pocket, but only if the charging station is properly equipped to measure consumption and approved by the employer.

Case study :

Sophie, company manager in Liège

Sophie runs a small business and has installed charging stations in the parking lot for her employees.
This makes life easier for his team and shows his commitment to the environment.
Expenses related to these terminals (purchase, installation, maintenance) are considered a green investment.
As a result, it can reduce its corporate income taxas part of these costs are tax-deductible.
What’s more, it improves the company’s image, making it more modern and sustainable.

Thomas, employee with company car

Thomas has an electric company car that he charges at home.
He doesn’t pay for electricity out of his own pocket, as his employer reimburses according to a tariff set by the CREG.
This rate depends on the region (around €0.33 per kWh).
For reimbursement to be possible, the terminal must accurately measure consumption.
Result: Thomas enjoys the convenience of home recharging, at no personal cost.
