Project Ariesformed between the plant vigo and villaverde (Madrid) PERTE Electric and Connected Vehicle (VEC)has been from work. Industry yesterday released the interim decision, which includes accepted and excluded initiatives. Although recommended for the project factory figurines He was able to cut it with his help. 42.4 million €of the olive plant productive the country is among three offers that will not even receive a euro. According to that Ministryreason for exclusion they don’t fit “with a minimal Perte structure”, according to the foundations already in existence at the time. severely criticized by the group.

department headed by Reyes Maroto, Temporary lists of accepted and rejected projects, what claims can be made. In the first case, 702.6 million euros were approved for ten projects. Those offered by Seat or Ford stand out (for the production of electric vehicles) and the Mercedes project for the Victoria plant is surprising., with approximately 160 million approved aid to produce a “premium” electric minivan. For the Volkswagen brand, which Delta Vigo participated in, the amount adopted is 167.3 million; At Ford, 106.3.

These three proposals are followed by the proposal of the center to revive the Nissan facilities in Barcelona (105.1 million support) or Renault (39.7 million). In the middle is the Stellantis project for Figueruelas. Thesis (as it was christened) started with a donation of 42.4 million euros, a total investment of 223 million euros to start production of two electric vehicles, the Lancia Ypsilon and the Peugeot 208.

In Galician key, for tentatively approved projects Faurecia and Sapa Group.

It covered 25 businesses, 72% of which were SMEs, and would include the implementation of a new battery workshop in Balaídos, the reuse of industrial water or the reduction of energy consumption.

The industry stated that the tractor project did not comply with the minimum structure of PERTE required in accordance with Article 8 and annex II of Decree No. ICT / 1466/2021 of 23 December, and that it “does not exceed the exclusionary criterion”. .
