The Basque Government has approved a list of 64 clean technologies eligible for tax deductions amounting to 30% of the investment. The goal is to make production processes more efficient by using equipment with a high environmental performance and so accelerate the climate and circular transition of SMEs in the Basque Country.
The 2025 Basque Circular Summit will be the largest event on the circular economy in southern Europe this year. It will analyse the challenges and opportunities posed by the circular economy for companies, society and the economy in the Basque Country and show what has already been achieved.
This publication contains the results of over 74 projects completed as part of the Circular Ecoinnovation Programme between 2017 and 2023. The programme, managed by Ihobe, the environmental management agency of the Basque Government’s Ministry for Economic Development, Sustainability and the Environment, drives ecodesign, circular economy demonstration and strategic ecoinnovation in Basque companies.
The market, commercial, economic, technical or environmental feasibility of each project has been graphically included in each datasheet.

CircularPSP (Public Service Platforms for Circular, Innovative and Resilient Municipalities through pre-commercial procurement) is organising a Follower event in cooperation with ACR+.
ACR+ will present their work on aiding cities to go circular and CircularPSP will present the state of play, including an update from the three suppliers selected for Phase II.
The InvestCEC project is pioneering a replicable model driving the implementation of circular economy projects across European cities and regions.
Entrepreneurs and SMEs from across Europe are now invited to submit proposals for business cases that promote circular economy solutions, either in the city of Klagenfurt or in other European cities.
This webinar will delve into recommendations for unlocking funding for circular economy projects. It will analyse the regulatory, market, social and technological barriers hindering the scaling and replication of circular economy models, and discuss strategies to overcome these challenges. By sharing lessons learned from successful EU initiatives, participants will gain insight that will enable them to replicate these initiatives in their own regions and cities.
Two projects in one event: come and find out more about circular procurement!
This event will launch the C-PRONE project and introduce the Circular Minds project, both of which have a focus on advancing circular procurement. Circular procurement may be a great idea but it's no easier to implement than any other form of procurement - see how these projects aim to help!
Are you working on a topic related to the circular economy? Are you new to the circular economy but want to find out more? Then don't miss Circular Wallonia's Quinzaine de l’économie circulaire 2024 (Circular Economy Fortnight 2024)!
Are you involved in public procurement of innovative goods and services? This webinar will set out the findings of two projects (BRINC and P5Innobroker) focusing on this area.
You will hear feedback from the two projects and learn about an open access toolkit.
On 17 July 2024, the Catalan government launched the Roadmap for the Circular Economy in Catalonia (Full de Ruta de l’Economia Circular a Catalunya, FRECC), highlighting its push for sustainable development and accelerating the transition to a more circular and equitable economy that maximizes the value of resources by 2030.
The plan, developed by the Catalan government (Generalitat de Catalunya), experts and citizens, aims to decouple economic growth from resource consumption and greenhouse gas emissions.
The roadmap will be implemented by means of two action plans: one for 2024-2026 and another for 2027-2029.
