EU Green Deal Compliance: How Bike Wash Infrastructure Qualifies
How bike wash infrastructure qualifies under EU Green Deal frameworks and available funding programs.
Frequently asked questions
Which Green Deal programs fund bike wash?
Most directly: the Sustainable and Smart Mobility Strategy, the Green Infrastructure Strategy, and NextGenerationEU recovery funds for active-mobility infrastructure. Many member states also run national co-funding (Germany: Nationaler Radverkehrsplan; Netherlands: Dutch Cycling Embassy grants).
What technical criteria matter for qualification?
Energy efficiency (we rate Class A on < 120 Wh/cycle), water recycling ≥ 50% (we achieve 85%), biodegradable cleaning agents, and certified life-cycle assessment. OASIS includes all four by default; Mini and Pro can be upgraded with the water-recycling module.
Can municipalities claim co-funding?
Yes, through the Cohesion Fund and ERDF. Typical co-funding rates are 50-70% for infrastructure in less-developed regions, 30-50% elsewhere. Applications usually run via the regional managing authority — lead time 6-18 months.
Do you provide the LCA documentation?
Yes. The full ISO 14040-compliant LCA is available on request for all OASIS installations, and as a paid add-on for Pro. We cover cradle-to-grave scope including manufacturing, installation, 10-year operation, and end-of-life recycling.
