The renewal of transport fleets has been shown as one of the most efficient measures for reducing energy consumption, with additional positive environmental and road safety effects. In this sense, the experiences of the Efficient Vehicle Incentives Program, in its three calls (PIVE, PIVE-2 and PIVE-3 Plans), established by the Resolutions of 28 September 2012 and 31 January 2013, of the Secretariat of State of Energy, for which it was published on 24 September 2012 and 30 January 2013, from the Board of Directors of the Energy Diversification and Savings Institute, as well as Royal Decree 575/2013 of 26 July 2013 with the the objective of replacing a total of approximately 295,000 old vehicles with the same new vehicle units, and whose funds have been depleted in a very short period of time than initially foreseen in both calls, indicates the excellent reception that this Programme has provided.
