Summary:

Communication adopted by the European Commission on 19 October 2022, setting out a revised framework on State aid rules for research, development and innovation (2022 RDI Framework).

Further information:

The RDI Framework sets out the rules under which Member States of the European Union (EU) can grant State aid to companies for RDI activities, while ensuring a level playing field. The 2022 RDI Framework aims to contribute to the EU's strategic objectives relating to the green and digital transitions.

The 2022 RDI Framework entered into force on 19 October 2022. It followed an evaluation of the rules as part of the State aid Fitness Check, and a consultation of interested parties on the proposed revised text of the Communication. This included contributions from Member States, business and research associations, interest groups and companies, NGOs, and citizens. The revised RDI Framework includes a number of targeted adjustments, to simplify and reflect the experience gained from the previous RDI Framework, to reflect regulatory, economic and technological developments, and to align the relevant rules to evolving EU policy priorities.

This guidance was published by the European Commission on 19 October 2022 and published in the Official Journal on 28 October 2022.
