The VEKI focuses on investment projects within industry that lead to substantial CO₂ reduction. These include:
- Energy efficiency: investments that significantly reduce the energy consumption of existing processes;
- Waste heat utilization: reusing heat that would otherwise be lost;
- Renewable energy: the use of sustainable energy sources within the production process;
- CO₂-reducing technologies: proven technologies that directly contribute to lower emissions.
Key conditions
- Only for industrial companies or businesses with an industrial application.
- The project must involve proven technology (no pilot or demonstration projects).
- The investment must result in significant CO₂ reduction.
- The project is not financially viable without the subsidy (unprofitable top).
- A minimum investment size and a maximum subsidy threshold per project apply.
We think along with you!
We make sure your application is strong in substance and aligns well with the requirements. We also look beyond just the VEKI: does it fit your situation, or might another scheme be more suitable?
Applying through RVO
You can apply for the VEKI through RVO. Make sure to do this on time, as the budget is limited. We monitor the process and ensure your application is complete, accurate, and submitted on time.
About this text: To make it clear and easy for you to read, we’ve rewritten the legal text of the regulation. This means we must state that no rights can be derived from this version. It’s simply the careful thing to do.
