German rescue and economic stimulus package
Source: German Ministry of Finance
1) Including spending for the public health system, digitisation, 5G, Quantum Technologies and Artificial Intelligence. 2) Including: innovation and facilitation for EVs and charging infrastructure,
innovations for busses and trucks, ships, aircrafts. Aid for trains, and public transport, 3) RES buildout is part of the recovery package, but not quantified therein. We estimate CAPEX costs of
the stated measures at 29 bn Euro. Alternatively, feed-in-tariffs would amount to 15 bn Euro approximately.

• Take distributional effects into account.
• Use income in a targeted and transparent manner.
• Communicate reforms convincingly.
• Secure and tighten CO2
price path.
• Elimination of levies on
electricity and partially
compensation via
revenues from CO2
pricing
• Reduce electricity tax
to the minimum rate of
the EU energy tax
directive.
• Energy tax directive
• European emissions
