Energy-reducing components" (EMF) support program

With intelligent trailer technologies from Kögel 

With the aim of supporting transport and logistics companies in the environmentally friendly and efficiency-enhancing modernization of their vehicle fleets, the German Federal Ministry of Transport and Digital Infrastructure has launched the National support program "Energy-reducing components" (EMK) launched.

Who in the period from 24.07.2023 to 31.03.2024 decides in favor of a trailer from Kögel with energy-efficient equipment options will receive money back from the government. As part of the "Energy-reducing components" subsidy program, the German government subsidizes trailers and components that reduce energy consumption and thus lower the carbon footprint of a transport operation.

Information on the "Energy-reducing components" (EMC) support program - because we care

The federal government subsidizes the purchase of energy-reducing components and trailers, the use of which offers considerable efficiency reserves in operation and thus reduces the energy consumption of the load train. The Kögel Euro Trailer and many equipment options from the Kögel range meet the eligibility criteria.

Among the energy-reducing trailers and components according to Positive list of the BALM include among others*:

Intelligent trailer technologies include*:

    • Aerodynamic attachments
    • Optimization of rolling resistance - tires and axles
    • Optimization of loading capacity or reduction in the number of trips
    • Lightweight construction
    • Making the trailer craneable
    • Increase (cooling) efficiency
    • Telematics
    • Others like tire pressure monitoring and LED lighting

*A selection according to the positive list of July 20, 2023. The positive list may still be subject to change. There is no entitlement to a grant. Rather, the granting authority (BALM) decides on the basis of its dutiful discretion within the framework of the available budget funds whether the measure (acquisition of the component) complies with the funding guidelines and whether the funding is granted.

"So I get a high-tech product at a low price that costs me less than a standard trailer."
