* Budget figures are rounded to hundred thousands. The table shows the cost of the measures without VAT. For most measures this equals the cost included in the recovery and resilience plan. However, for measures marked with an asterisk (*), Germany indicated when submitting the recovery and resilience plan in April 2021 that their cost may include VAT, and in this table the cost is shown while taking away the full amount of potential VAT for these measures (assuming that the maximum VAT rate of 19% fully applies).

** The ‘Methodology for climate tracking’ annexed to the Recovery and Resilience Facility Regulation does not set out intervention fields that would allow for climate or environmental tracking of electric vehicles or plug-in hybrid vehicles, except for vehicles for urban transport falling under intervention field 074. According to Article 18(4)(e) of the Regulation, the methodology should however ‘be used accordingly for measures that cannot be directly assigned to an intervention field listed in Annex VI’. In this context, the Commission has applied a 100% climate contribution coefficient for zero-emission vehicles of all categories (this includes battery electric and fuel cell/hydrogen-powered vehicles); a 40% climate contribution coefficient for plug-in hybrid light-duty vehicles; and, in line with the criteria under the Taxonomy Regulation, a 100% climate coefficient for low-emission heavy-duty vehicles.

*** While the estimated cost of Germany’s recovery and resilience plan exceeds the total allocation of non-repayable financial support to Germany, Germany will ensure that all spending related to the measures mentioned in this table as contributing to climate objectives are fully financed by the funds from the Recovery and Resilience Facility.

**** Reforms and investments in the REPowerEU chapter are not taken into account when calculating the plan’s contribution to the digital target requirement set by Regulation (EU) 2021/241.
