CHANCELLOR Angela Merkel's 1.2 billion euro (S$1.8 billion) electric-car push is a boon to another industry seeking to benefit from the shift beyond petrol: chipmakers such as Germany's Infineon Technologies AG.
The subsidy programme, which kicks off in May with rebates for vehicle buyers and plans for 15,000 battery-charging stations, translates into about US$300 million of chips by 2019, said Guenther Hollfelder, an analyst at Baader Bank AG.
