What changed
The European Commission has decided not to raise objections to Spain's aid scheme, CISAF, designed to support the manufacture of zero-emission industrial technology components within the Catalonia region. This scheme, approved on March 26, 2026, will be implemented through direct grants and is set to run until December 31, 2030, aligning with objectives of environmental protection and sectoral development.
Manufacturers in Catalonia involved in producing zero-emission industrial technology components are the primary beneficiaries.

No specific compliance deadline is mentioned beyond the scheme's duration, but entities should be aware of the direct grant mechanism for funding.
