Péter Szijjártó, Hungary’s Minister of Foreign Affairs and Trade, announced at the conference of the Hungarian Automotive Component Manufacturers Association (MAJOSZ) in Zalaegerszeg that the government will launch a new, targeted investment incentive scheme to support projects aimed at manufacturing zero-emission technologies. The objective of the scheme is to encourage investments in Hungary that contribute—through the products they manufacture—to the transition toward a climate-neutral economy. What is CISAF? – The framework behind the program The new programme is based on the Clean Industrial State Aid Framework (CISAF) adopted by the European Commission, which entered into force on 25 June 2025. It replaced the Temporary Crisis and Transition Framework (TCTF) and aims to support industrial decarbonisation. What types of investments are supported? The programme supports the development and manufacturing of green technologies that reduce industrial emissions and promote climate neutrality. Eligible technologies include: Aid intensity and conditions by region While the detailed rules of the scheme are still to be published, CISAF defines the following framework conditions: ...
On June 25, 2025, the European Commission adopted the Clean Industrial State Aid Framework (Clean Industrial State Aid Framework, „CISAF”), which allows Member States to accelerate the green transition of the manufacturing industry, the spread of clean energy and technology, and the decarbonization of the sector through targeted state aid. How long can Member States continue to introduce state aid to support the green transition? CISAF will apply until the end of 2030, replacing the temporary crisis and transition framework (TCTF) currently in force, and will provide long-term predictability for businesses and investors. The entry into force of CISAF does not mean that these funds will automatically be available to businesses, as it is now up to Member States to launch their own state aid programs that fit within the framework. What are your main focus areas and what level of grant can be requested? Within the framework of CISAF, the European Commission has defined the conditions for state aid and the level of grant that can be provided in several priority areas, such as the promotion of renewable energy, the introduction of low-carbon fuels, the transition to non-fossil fuels, industrial decarbonization, and investment funding for clean manufacturing technologies. ...
