What the scheme covers
Projects on the following themes: functional economy — moving from selling a product or service to providing a solution focused on use and/or results, without transferring ownership; eco-design — building environmental criteria into the design or redesign of a product (good or service) to reduce its environmental impacts throughout its life cycle while preserving its usability and performance; sustainable purchasing — working on the business’s purchasing process by questioning its needs and building in environmental and social criteria and a life-cycle and total-cost approach.

Grant of up to: 80% of eligible costs for a study and support; 60% of eligible costs for an investment; 50% of eligible costs for a collective operation.
