Aid for businesses buying bike fleets
Aid for businesses buying bike fleets. Improve air quality in the agglomeration, promote the decarbonisation of company fleets and support businesses’ CSR policies. Expenditure or operations listed: cost of buying the bikes, excluding leasing; used bikes are eligible if sold by a professional supplier. The bikes may be pedal or electrically assisted. Practical step: before applying for the aid, draw up a list of the bikes and an overall quote, check the location of the registered office and the primary use in the agglomeration, then ask the funder whether funding and arrangements are still open. The catalogue rate is up to 30%; the exact calculation and application channel should be confirmed.
For a business or association in the Saintes agglomeration planning to equip several employees, the deciding factor is the volume of purchase: the catalogue requires at least three bikes and expenditure of between €1,500 and €20,000. Used bikes are only mentioned as eligible if sold by a professional. The amount, combination rules and current opening should be confirmed with the funder before committing.
