Air Quality Business Fund for the Arve Valley
The catalogue describes support for businesses located within the perimeter of the Arve Valley Atmosphere Protection Plan, for actions to reduce pollutants at source or treat them. The amount depends on the project and is not reliably quantified in the data available. Identify the current local rules, the municipalities covered, the pollutants targeted and the funding conditions before estimating the aid.
Reducing an industrial site’s air emissions may require changing a process, capturing pollutants at source or installing a filtration system. The Arve Valley Fonds Air Entreprises aims precisely to speed up this kind of action, with a focus on fine particles, nitrogen oxides and volatile organic compounds. The project must link each investment to a measurable reduction in emissions.
Funded by CC Cluses Arve et Montagnes, CC de la Vallée de Chamonix Mont-Blanc, CC du Pays du Mont-Blanc, CC Faucigny-Glières, CC Le Pays Rochois, Département 74 - Haute-Savoie, Région Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes
