On Thursday 20 January, the European Commission approved Austria’s regional aid map, valid from 1 January 2022 to 31 December 2027, under the revised Regional aid Guidelines.
The Austrian regional aid map shows which regions in Austria are eligible for regional investment aid. The map also sets out the maximum aid intensities in the eligible regions.
The aid intensity is the maximum amount of State aid that can be granted per beneficiary, expressed as a percentage of the eligible investment costs.
According to the revised guidelines, regions covering 22.42% of the population of Austria will be eligible for regional investment aid under the derogation of Article 107(3)(c) of the TFEU (so-called ‘c’ areas).
