Increasing wood processing to accelerate the transition to a climate-neutral society

The investments will contribute towards increased domestic wood processing based on an environmentally friendly production process and resource efficiency.

These investments are financing new and expended capacities for wood processing. In both cases, activities follow the principles of sustainable construction and the use of best available techniques. They are also subject to strict do no significant harm criteria, in particular on the protection of biodiversity.

The Recovery and Resilience Facility provides funding of EUR 28 million.

The public call for project proposals was published on 25 March 2022, with six rounds of awards envisaged.

Furthermore, in addition the initial EUR 28 million from the Recovery and Resilience Facility, the Slovenian government ensured additional EUR 11 million, leveraging a total of EUR 85 million of public and private investments.
