Summary

The European Commission has approved an aid scheme proposed by Spain for the manufacture of zero-emission industrial technology components in Catalonia. The scheme, which runs until December 31, 2030, aims to support environmental protection and sectoral development.

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. While the Commission has not raised objections, entities seeking to benefit from this scheme should ensure their activities align with the scheme's objectives and legal basis, which includes the Clean Industrial Deal and the State Aid Framework. No specific compliance deadline is mentioned beyond the scheme's duration, but entities should be aware of the direct grant mechanism for funding.

What to do next

  1. Manufacturers in Catalonia seeking to benefit from the scheme should ensure their production aligns with zero-emission industrial technology components.
  2. Entities should confirm eligibility criteria for direct grants under the CISAF scheme.
