Investment premium
An new investment support programme was introduced in 2020 to stimulate companies’ investements in greening, digitalisation and healthcare. For such investments companies could submit applications (until Februar 2021) for a grant covering 14 per cent of investment costs. This will make climate-friendly investments such as renewable energy, energy efficiency, and investments in reducing air pollutants and other forms of pollution particularly attractive for companies. Environmentally harmful investments were explicitly excluded. From a total of € 3 bn. of grants € 750 mio. € are used specifically for green investments.
