The Ministry for the Ecological Transition and the Demographic Challenge (MITECO), through the Biodiversity Foundation, has announced the first definitive partial resolution of the second call for grants under Line 2 of the Circular Economy PERTE — a key initiative to promote circularity in industrial and business processes.
Increased budget: more opportunities for sustainable companies
In this call, the initial budget of €27 million has been increased to €40.5 million after receiving a large number of high-quality proposals. This increase will allow more business projects to access funding and advance toward a truly competitive circular economy.
Funded projects: ecodesign, digitization, and resource efficiency
The first resolution includes the approval of 19 projects driven by 25 entities, with a total of €25.7 million in grants. These initiatives focus on:
- Ecodesign of products and industrial solutions
- Reduction in the use of virgin raw materials
- Minimization of waste in production processes
- Digital transformation of industry
In total, these projects will mobilize an investment of €62 million, with individual grants ranging from €100,000 to €5.9 million. Co-financing varies between 15% and 60%, depending on company size and project scope.
Support for SMEs and sectoral diversity
21% of the grants have been awarded to small and micro-enterprises, while medium-sized companies represent 47.36%. This call reflects institutional commitment to Spain’s most innovative and sustainable business fabric.
The sectors benefiting include:
- Waste management and recycling
- Recovery of critical raw materials
- Industrial digitization
- Circular economy applied to furniture, mattresses, and WEEE
The projects are distributed across 13 autonomous communities, ensuring national equity: Andalusia, Aragon, Asturias, Balearic Islands, Castilla-La Mancha, Castilla y León, Madrid, Catalonia, Valencian Community, Galicia, Navarre, and Murcia.
Additional announcements from MITECO are expected in the coming weeks to complete the allocation.
