Alternatives to traditional taxation in the transition to electro mobility

30 June 2025 | 15:00 - 18:00 | TUM Think Tank 

 

With the shift to electromobility, traditional tax revenues are disappearing and new fiscal strategies are needed. While this topic is already gaining relevance in countries such as Switzerland and Austria, it has barely featured in the political debate in Germany to date.

TU Munich and ETH Zurich, together with the TUM Think Tank, invite you to a high-level discussion on sustainable concepts for EV taxation.

Aim of the event

 

The aim is to bring together political decision-makers, administration, science and business from the DACH region and to develop concrete approaches for fair and effective regulation.
