Belgium has been giving expense/money related advantages to the individuals who bike to work, as opposed to drive, for a long while now — with the program obviously notwithstanding paying out around €93 million in 2015 (to around 400,000 program members).
Already, this program had been accessible to all clients of pedal-controlled bikes and to clients of electric bikes that are speed-constrained to under 25 kilometers 60 minutes. Presently, another law makes the program open to all clients of electric bikes that go at up to 45 kilometers 60 minutes (~28 miles every hour). Anything quicker still isn't qualified.
The Finance Minister of Belgium, Johan Van Overtveldt, was cited as saying: "We need to energize cycling for drives for clear reasons, despite the kind of bike utilized."
Belgium Extends Tax Benefits To More Electric Bicycle Users
A sensible thing — however, it's intriguing that electric bikes that can travel speedier than 45 kilometers a hour are obviously still not qualified for program support. I figure experts would prefer not to energize the utilization of electric bikes that travel so quick that they make different bicyclists awkward? Are any of the Belgians perusing this ready to give any knowledge on the matter?
Reuters gives more foundation on the news and the program: "Businesses in Belgium can right now compensate staff in the event that they come to take a shot at a bike, paying them for each kilometer they cycle, with an end goal to advance environmentalism and a more beneficial way of life. Suburbanites can get €0.23 ($0.26) per km cycled between their home and their work environment."
