ERDF – Tangible investment in the circular economy in Réunion
The regional action sheet targets tangible investment in reuse, recovery and recycling activities, notably reuse centres (recycleries, ressourceries) and repair workshops. According to the catalogue, the amount depends on the project; the rate, caps, categories of beneficiaries and application date must be read in the current version of the regional document.
Reusing objects, repairing rather than throwing away, or recycling materials often requires suitable equipment and premises. In Réunion, an ERDF action sheet dedicated to tangible investment in the circular economy targets economic projects that reduce waste and extend product life. For a project owner, each investment must be linked to a concrete reuse, repair or recycling result.
