In Burgundy-Franche-Comté, a number of retailers such as IKEA and Leroy Merlin offer free charging points for their customers, while others, such as Verdun-sur-le-Doubs, charge around €0.40/kWh. The "Territoires d'Énergie Bourgogne-Franche-Comté" network also provides charging points that can be accessed via a dedicated application. When it comes to parking, some towns offer advantages, such as Nevers, which has five free charging points. In addition, the green disc allows up to two hours' free on-street parking for electric vehicles in some towns.

To install an electric vehicle charging point in Burgundy-Franche-Comté, follow the steps below:

1. Choosing the charging point Determine which type of terminal is best suited to your vehicle and your infrastructure (domestic or professional terminal, terminal power, etc.).
   
   
2. Selecting a certified installer Installation: Call in a qualified professional to carry out the installation. Make sure the installer is IRVE (Infrastructure de Recharge de Véhicules Électriques) certified to guarantee that the installation complies with regulations.
   
   
3. Check the aid available Financial assistance: Find out about local and national financial assistance. The ADVENIR bonus and regional subsidies can reduce the cost of installation. You can also consult programmes such as "Pass Pass Électrique" in Bourgogne-Franche-Comté, which facilitate access to charging points.
   
   
4. Request the necessary authorisations Depending on the location (in a collective dwelling, for example), it may be necessary to obtain the agreement of the co-ownership or a road permit if the terminal is installed outside.
   
   
5. Installation and commissioning The installer will carry out the installation in compliance with safety standards and provide you with a certificate of compliance.
   
   

In Burgundy-Franche-Comté, it is also advisable to consult initiatives such as the "Territoires d'Énergie" network, which supports the installation of charging points in rural and peri-urban areas.

Whether at work, in public or at home, having a connected recharging point can add value. Connectivity is an increasingly important part of our daily lives. Connected charging points are relatively expensive, but can be very profitable. 

These terminals allow you to : 

• Track your electricity consumption 
• Some allow you to configure the charging point to charge only during off-peak hours
• Block foreign users from recharging (you never know) 
• Automatically manage recharge power to avoid overcharging and blowing fuses 

Load shedding regulates the power drawn by the terminal according to the power available on your network.

Among other things, it becomes necessary on certain installations where the subscribed power is insufficient to support the consumption of the terminal. We recommend that you include this option, particularly if you are a private individual. 

As with any installation of a recharging point in a company or local authority/public institution, you are entitled to assistance from ADVENIR. 

In order to benefit from the Grant ADVENIRYou'll need to take out Supervision, Subscription and Maintenance options. These options will guarantee the charging point a certain lifespan. To qualify for the ADVENIR bonus, you'll also need to choose a certified installer and hire an IRVE-qualified electrician. The administrative procedures are fairly lengthy, but don't panic! Beev will take care of it for you!

With the MaPrimeRénov' tax credit, you can get a tax rebate on the purchase of an electric charging point for expenditure incurred up to 31 December 2025. 

Unlike the CITE, the tax credit granted with MaPrimeRénov' is available for installations carried out on primary and secondary residences! 

The amount of the tax credit for the installation of an electric vehicle charging point is :

• • 500 per charging system for a connected charging point
  • 300 per charging system for a non-connected charging point, with or without load shedding

You should be aware that the authorities may take back the tax credit if, after receiving it, you are reimbursed for the installation costs within 5 years. The tax credit cannot be reclaimed following a claim. 

There is no universal criterion that will enable you to choose your service provider with certainty. However, it is important to take at least one criterion into account: certification. To qualify for ADVENIR aid, the service provider responsible for the installation will have to be IRVE certified. This certification not only gives you access to ADVENIR aid, it also guarantees quality. It's a guarantee that the work will be carried out properly.
