Funding Area: Water Management Projects

The funding area for water management projects of the state of Baden-Württemberg offers public institutions financial grants for a diverse range of water management initiatives. The focus is on measures for waterbody development and ecology, the expansion of small hydropower plants, as well as ensuring a reliable public water supply. Sustainable infrastructure projects for municipal wastewater disposal, particularly in rural areas, complete the funding portfolio. For all measures, the principle applies to preserve environmental and nature conservation aspects while simultaneously enhancing energy efficiency and climate protection. The ongoing funding opportunity ensures flexible application submission through the responsible Department 53.2 at the Regional Council.

Municipalities and other public bodies with headquarters or activities in Baden-Württemberg can benefit from this support. The goal is to increase the performance of regional water networks, restore the ecological connectivity of waterbodies, and utilize climate-friendly local energy sources. The grants help make investments in modern technology and ecological construction methods economically feasible. Through targeted funding, long-term stable supply structures and environmentally sound disposal systems are established. Thus, the program makes an important contribution to resource conservation, strengthening rural areas, and achieving climate policy objectives at the state level.
