The NOx Fund has updated its guidelines for projects that achieve emission reductions after 1 January 2027.

The NOx Fund has made adjustments to the support conditions for projects that achieve NOx-reducing effects from 2027 onwards.

For decisions on support for new applications, the ordinary maximum calculated support amount will be reduced by 50% for projects where the NOx-reducing effect occurs in the period 1 January 2027–31 December 2027. Ordinary support will not be granted for measures that have an NOx-reducing impact after 31 December 2027.

For amendments to previously granted support decisions due to delayed implementation, the ordinary maximum calculated support amount will be reduced by 50% for projects where the NOx-reducing effect occurs in the period 1 January 2027–30 September 2028. Ordinary support will not be granted for delayed measures that result in NOx-reducing effects after 30 September 2028.

The final period for verification of all measures and subsequent payment of ordinary support is 1 October 2028–31 December 2028.

Assuming that the NOx Agreement is extended, the NOx Fund may grant support under ordinary support conditions (without reduction).

• The effect of the measure must occur no later than 31 December 2028.

• Conditional support will not be granted for measures where the NOx-reducing effect occurs after 31 December 2028.

New extended deadlines and support conditions will be considered if a renewed NOx Agreement has been concluded.
