Themes
The SDE++ program has several themes, including:
- Renewable electricity
- Renewable heat
- Renewable gas
- Low-CO2 heat
- Low-CO2 production.
It is available to businesses and non-profit organisations operating in industries such as mobility, agriculture, electricity, and construction.
Objectives
The goal of SDE++ (in Dutch: Stimulatie Duurzame Energieproductie en Klimaattransitie) is to encourage the production of sustainable energy and reduce CO2 emissions, thereby ensuring the feasibility and affordability of the energy transition in the Netherlands.
Details
- The SDE++ grant is designed for companies and non-profit organisations operating in various sectors, including the chemical sector.
- It serves to offset the “unprofitable top” of the investment and covers the cost difference between traditional/polluting technology and newer, more eco-friendly technology.
- Applications for SDE++ grants are only accepted during official application rounds, which occur once per year.
- Grant applicants should strategically time their applications to avoid budget exhaustion, as projects requiring significant funding are reviewed later.
- Applying earlier can be a strategic advantage, despite the possibility of obtaining a lower grant amount, as it increases the chances of success.
