Fostering the Development of Low-Carbon Industrial Zones (ZIBaC) — Phase 2: Support
The ZIBaC phase 2 call for projects supports industrial areas in structuring and rolling out collective low-carbon pathways; the ADEME page indicates it is open until 10 June 2028, in all regions.
ZIBaC supports industrial areas that want to organise a collective decarbonisation pathway: energy infrastructure, pooling of resources, low-carbon industrial projects and cooperation between companies. Phase 2 covers support for this territorial transformation, not a generic grant for any industrial investment.
