JTF Rijnmond - kick-off meeting Plant One Botlek Rotterdam
The JTF is a new European fund and focuses specifically on the transition of CO-2 -intensive industrial regions from fossil to sustainable. This focuses on the physical transition of industry on the one hand and on the mitigation of the labour market effects involved on the other. The main objective of the JTF is to enable regions heavily dependent on income and employment from fossil fuels to embark on an energy transition in a fair equal manner. A transition that takes into account social, economic and environmental impacts.
€58.5 million for energy transition in Rijnmond region
From the fourth quarter of 2022, companies, educational institutions and social partners in the Rijnmond region can apply for funds from the Just Transition Fund (JTF) Rijnmond. A total of €58.5 million will be available for companies working or contributing to accelerating the energy transition, renewing the economy and/or making the labour market resilient. Interested parties can join an information session on 10 October. (Register meeting at Plant One Botlek Rotterdam: click here)
