Decommissioning of charging sites
The Group has land permits in Germany and in the Netherlands. For some land permits, the Group is required to decommission charging equipment upon termination of the concession. In Germany, in most instances the charging equipment will become the property of the municipality and therefore there are no dismantling costs for the Group. In the Netherlands, in most instances the requester for termination will be required to pay for the dismantling costs which is not expected to be the Group. In other instances, it is expected that the sites will be continued at the end of the concession period. Therefore, any dismantling costs to be capitalized as part of right-of-use assets are considered to be immaterial as this only constitutes expenses to be incurred for recovering the charging equipment.
