BMW supports drive to double number of plug-in cars on roads
The campaign is starting in Cork City, which is promoting the use of EVs in its bid to be European Green Capital in 2017. Some of the incentives to buy EVs are free parking, free charging, free charge points and waived tolls.
The campaign is being spearheaded by Agriculture Minister Simon Coveney and a range of partners, including Energy Cork, several car manufacturers, such as BMW, and the ESB, Sustainable Energy of Ireland, and the SFI Research Centre for Marine Renewable Energy Ireland.
