Esbjerg will ban special treatment of electric cars and their owners

Benefits such as free charging and free parking for electric cars are getting longer and longer. In Esbjerg, it must be completely banned, the politicians believe.

Owners of electric cars have it easy. Especially in Denmark, where electricity is cheap and the registration fee for this type of car is vanishingly small.

But in Esbjerg, there must be an end to wrapping electric cars in benefits. At least when it comes to free parking.

That is what the Social Democrats in Esbjerg's city council think. This is written by Avisen Danmark .

The media writes that the party will probably put forward a proposal before the summer holidays that prohibits special treatment of electric car owners in all municipal parking lots, i.e. in Esbjerg.

Even when requirements were introduced in April to register the parking in a machine or in an app, people in electric cars got away with it. But it must be over now.

Instead, according to the party's two members of the Planning & Urban Development Committee, Hans Erik Moller and Mussa Utto, electric car owners must follow exactly the same rules as all other motorists in the city.

The two city councilors say, among other things, that the ban must be introduced because Esbjerg must be for everyone. Also in the city centre, although as a driver you may not be able to afford to spend up to half a million kroner on a new electric car.

Esbjerg is not the only city that will remove a number of artificially created advantages for people in electric cars. In fact, there are entire countries that are adopting similar austerity measures.

In Iceland, for example, a special tax was introduced at the turn of the year, which only electric car owners have to pay. And in the Canadian province of Alberta, electric car owners must now pay for the damage their cars do on the roads. Read more about it here .

A new Germansurvey also shows that free charging – in contrast to the conditions just a few years ago – hardly exists anymore. It has simply become too expensive a business for, among other things, supermarkets, which do not want to participate anymore.
