In addition to the focused PERTE actions, a more general action is proposed for aerospace technologies that are oriented to the green transition, reinforce Spanish capacities and generate a drag effect on the entire value chain.
This investment aims to act on Spanish technological and innovative capacities related to the aerospace field, due to its impact on the economy as a whole and because of its capacity to generate knowledge and innovations that can be applied in numerous fields. This aid aims to increase investments in R&D&I and the industrial scaling of the results, update productive capacities, including investments, in order to respond to the sector’s needs to digitalize and modernize facilities’ technology, as well as to develop and implement green technologies that contribute to the sector's sustainability.
This aid is offered as loans with a non-refundable part. There are three distinct lines:
- Aerospace R&D: Individual R&D projects linked to the Addendum and the PERTE Aerospace.
- Aerospace Innovation Direct Line: Technological innovation projects related to PERTE Aerospace. Aimed at supporting companies in improving their competitiveness through the incorporation of emerging technologies.
- Aerospace Expansion Direct Line: Technological innovation projects related to PERTE Aerospace. This type of aid aims to promote innovation in some of Spain’s more disadvantaged regions.
