🇬🇧 English
Norway can run a public grant scheme to expand broadband infrastructure, after the EFTA Surveillance Authority decided not to object to the measure. The scheme has a budget of EUR 5 billion and can cover up to 100% of eligible costs through direct grants. The measure is aimed at telecommunications infrastructure and will run until 31 December 2030. Norwegian counties will grant the aid, so telecom operators and broadband infrastructure providers involved in rollout projects are the main businesses affected.
