Convocatoria ANDALUCÍA: Ayudas a la inversión en instalaciones de generación de energía eléctrica y térmica con fuentes de energía renovable (IDAE)
Instituto para la Diversificación y Ahorro de la Energía – IDAE
At IMPULSO, we are pleased to inform you that the Ministry for the Ecological Transition and the Demographic Challenge, through the Institute for Energy Diversification and Saving (IDAE), will allocate €316 million to promote renewable installations for energy production, both thermal and electrical, throughout the national territory.
This aid programme is implemented through calls issued by IDAE in each autonomous community. It is already open in ANDALUSIA, and its purpose is to award, under a competitive tendering procedure, grants for investment projects in electricity generation installations using renewable energy sources (ELECTRICITY) or thermal energy production installations using renewable energy sources, including their management improvement and production optimisation equipment (THERMAL ENERGY).
Below is a summary of the main features of these grants:
BENEFICIARIES
Natural or legal persons, public or private (including energy service companies in the case of THERMAL ENERGY).
