ARC | Grant program for organic waste collection vehicles to promote efficient selective collection
The Catalonia Waste Agency (ARC) approved the regulatory framework for grants to support the purchase of vehicles for selective collection of organic municipal waste. This initiative, funded by the EU’s NextGenerationEU recovery plan, aims to promote efficient selective collection models across Catalonia by financing necessary vehicles. Eligible applicants include municipalities, local entities, or their consortia that currently manage selective collection of organic waste and have efficient collection models covering at least 50% of their population. Aid intensity can reach up to 90%, with maximum subsidies of EUR 200 000 for zero-emission certified vehicles and EUR 150 000 for other certified vehicles.
