VEKI

If, as an entrepreneur from the industry, you have plans for a climate-friendly investment with a payback period of less than five years, there is now a subsidy that you can use to compensate for at least 30% of the (additional) costs: the Accelerated scheme. Climate investment Industry (VEKI).

How does the VEKI work?

The VEKI is a welcome grant from the government for entrepreneurs who want to invest sustainably, but who still keep the investment assignment with them. For example because of the current economically uncertain times. The VEKI can be an incentive to accelerate the investment. The grant to be applied for is considerable.

The VEKI offers subsidies for:

energy efficiency
recycling and reuse of waste
local infrastructure
other CO2-reducing measures

Energy savings are important, but resource savings also count towards the amount of the grant, what about that?

A condition is that there is an energy saving in the investment, but this saving does not have to represent the largest share in the total savings. The total of all savings, including raw materials such as paper and water, are included in the calculation of the energy saving / CO2 reduction.

As a result, the grant is more interesting for many companies than the EIA, because it may only include the portion of the energy savings. In addition to energy savings, climate investments often also involve material savings.

Minimum grant: € 125,000

The minimum grant amount to be paid out is € 125,000 (the maximum € 3 million). The grant is calculated on the additional costs of the investment compared to a less environmentally friendly alternative. In all cases, it must therefore involve substantial investments.

They have already successfully applied for VEKI for their investments:

This year, Vindsubsidies has used VEKI for several large climate investments by customers. Printing company Campo Coprint, for example, received the grant for the investment in two digital printing presses with which 'gas-free' printing can be done and large quantities of process water and paper are saved.

Another customer, Ten Cate Grass, is investing in a machine to make their extrusion process more sustainable. Also within this investment not only energy is saved, but also material.

A third example is Wihabo printing company, which is in the process of transitioning to fully digital printing. Two climate-unfriendly printing systems with inefficient technology have been replaced by 1 resource-efficient and energy-friendly printing machine. Here too, a calculation of the energy and raw material savings has led to the allocation of a considerable VEKI grant.
