The new investment programme by the Czech Ministry of Industry and Trade aims to attract investments in electromobility, decarbonisation, and renewable technologies, particularly in production areas such as batteries, solar panels, wind turbines, heat pumps, and electrolysers. The programme aligns with the growing need to prepare the Czech economy for the challenges posed by global climate transformation.
The programme is expected to support investments totaling at least CZK 100 billion during the period from 2025 to 2033. Approximately CZK 24 billion of this amount will be financed through public funds, with the remainder covered by private investors. The financing system is designed to respond flexibly to new opportunities, as it is not solely dependent on the development level of specific regions. While large investments will be supported, individual approval by the European Commission will not be required, as the programme is intended to be notified as a whole. Applications are expected to open in early 2025 and remain available until September 2025. The minimum investment per project is CZK 2.8 billion, equivalent to EUR 110 million, a threshold that triggers the requirement for individual notification for investment incentives.
