Euractiv | Dekarbo brief: three lessons from Friday's blackout
The European Union has introduced a new state aid framework called the Clean Industry State Aid Framework (CISAF), aimed at boosting investment in clean technologies and accelerating the decarbonisation of European industry. Filip Křenek, an analyst at the EUROPEUM Institute, outlined the details of the new CISAF framework for the Euractiv portal.

So far, CISAF has received little attention in the Czech Republic. It replaces the existing crisis state aid framework and will remain in effect until the end of 2030. The new framework allows member states to finance a wide range of industrial projects with public funds — often to a much greater extent than before. For example, investments in hydrogen can be covered up to 60% of costs, while renewable energy sources, battery storage, and carbon capture systems (CCS) can receive up to 45%. Support for low-carbon fuels ranges from 20 to 35%, and other decarbonisation projects can receive up to 30%. Small and medium-sized enterprises are eligible for an additional bonus of 10 to 20%.
