Energy sobriety plan: the government wants to speed up carpooling

With the new aid of 65 euros to install a programmer on the boiler, this is the other flagship measure of the “energy sobriety plan” for individuals. On January 1, 2023, the government will introduce a financial bonus to encourage the French to use carpooling more. “It’s a major challenge to limit fuel consumption. More generally, we want to speed up the field of home-work journeys: less than 1% is done by carpooling at present. It’s too little, ”says the Ministry of Transport, which is leading the file. The government wants to go from 1.1 passengers per car to 1.8 by 2030.
