The purpose of the Circular Economy Innovation Grant Scheme (CEIGS) is to provide support to projects which work in the Circular Economy space, with the aim of advancing the Circular Economy in Ireland and raising awareness of the need to transition to a Circular Economy The successful projects allocated funding under the 2021 funding round of the CEIGS are set out in the table below.

All funding awarded is governed by grant agreements between my Department and the relevant applicants. These grant agreements set out the deliverables for each project.

10 projects were initially selected for funding under the 2021 round, with a total funding commitment of some €490,000. Subsequently one project, ‘Reuse Revolution for 3rd Level Institutions’, was withdrawn by the applicant as the project was no longer proceeding.
