vesieristystarpeet

Vesieristystarpeet, also known as "vesieristys" or "vesieristyspalkki," refers to a financial incentive or subsidy provided by the Finnish government to encourage the use of electric vehicles (EVs) and other low-emission vehicles. The program aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and promote sustainable transportation.

The vesieristystarpeet system operates through a combination of purchase subsidies and registration bonuses. When a new electric vehicle is purchased, the buyer can apply for a purchase subsidy, which is a one-time payment made by the government to the vehicle manufacturer. The amount of the subsidy varies depending on the type of vehicle and its emissions level.

In addition to purchase subsidies, the Finnish government offers registration bonuses for low-emission vehicles. These bonuses are paid to the vehicle owner when the vehicle is first registered. The amount of the bonus depends on the vehicle's emissions level and other factors.

The vesieristystarpeet program is designed to make electric vehicles more affordable and accessible to consumers, thereby encouraging their adoption and reducing the overall carbon footprint of the Finnish transportation sector. The program has been successful in increasing the number of electric vehicles on Finnish roads and contributing to the country's climate goals.
