Companies in Romania hesitate to make new investments, even if there are a multitude of co-financing programs at the national level, said Roxana Mircea, Managing Partner of REI Grup.
“We see a slight freeze in investments. It is the first time in ten years that we are in the position to beg companies to invest. People are undecided about whether to invest or wait. We recommend them not to wait because there are many opportunities”, said Mircea, during the “Sustainable Communities – Timișoara” conference, organized by Energynomics and SmartiCity.
A recent REI analysis has shown that companies have more than 2.5 billion euros available in the coming months for investments in green energy production or increasing energy efficiency, in the digitization of SME activity, recycling, production or in SME re-technology, in the most crowded period in non-reimbursable financing that our country went through, since joining the EU in 2007.
On certain measures, non-reimbursable financing can reach 100% of the value of eligible expenses.
