About this opportunity

The programme supports investments in energy efficiency, resource efficiency and renewable energy. Examples published by EBRD include CNC machines, laser cutting machines, saws, injection-moulding equipment, loaders, backhoe loaders, excavators, telehandlers and solar systems for own consumption. This makes it particularly relevant to manufacturing, concrete and construction-material producers, stone-processing businesses, construction contractors and installation companies seeking cleaner and more efficient equipment. Financing is a bank loan combined with an EU investment grant after verification; it is not a stand-alone cash grant.

Objectives

Reduce energy and resource use, lower emissions and operating costs, increase renewable-energy use, modernise SME equipment, improve competitiveness and support compliance with recognised green standards.
