In future, the federal government should become sustainable in terms of procurement

Among other things, the food in public institutions should become more biological and regional. The fleet will be converted to zero emissions by 2027. Public clients will be obliged to use 100 percent certified green electricity by 2030.

Economics Minister Margarete Schramböck demonstrated with a figure that there is great potential in public procurement: the state purchases around 46 billion euros per year. The head of department is concerned that in the future micro, small and medium-sized enterprises will have a better chance of getting a chance here. A corresponding “call” for health and care solutions will take place here soon.

As far as the vehicles are concerned, the newly purchased vehicles will in principle be emission-free as early as 2022. There are still exceptions, but they should also be phased out by 2027. Environment Minister Leonore Gewessler said that the exemption would only apply where there was no other way – for example in the case of emergency vehicles from the police and fire brigade.
