Subsidies for increasing your energy efficiency

How to finance climate neutrality in your company by 2045

This webinar is held in German.
All companies in Germany must operate in a greenhouse gas-neutral manner by 2045. This goal can only be achieved through considerable efforts on the part of companies and massive support from the state. What exactly does the tightening of the Energy Efficiency Directive at the end of 2023 or the new Supply Chain Act of April 2024 mean for SMEs? What support measures are available? How do you apply for them? This training provides you with a comprehensive overview of legal requirements and current funding opportunities for energy efficiency measures in new builds and building refurbishments, as well as funding for energy-efficient production facilities, climate-neutral mobility and consultancy funding. Learn how to finance your company's sustainability projects with the help of subsidies and how to future-proof your company with financing examples and practical tips on the application process.
