Soft Mobility Services in Companies for Réunion and Mayotte Grant

Agence de la transition écologique (ADEME)

About this grant

The ADEME's 2026 call for projects (appel à projets, AAP) "Services de mobilité douce en entreprise" for La Réunion and Mayotte aims to help employers move their staff toward soft mobility, mainly bicycles, car-sharing and other alternatives to the private car. Transport is a major source of greenhouse gas emissions on the two islands, and the call targets commuting trips from home to work, with professional trips also possible. Funded projects must provide a turnkey mobility service to employees, not an equipment purchase. ADEME prioritises electric-assist bicycle (VAE) services. Pure equipment rental is not eligible. The service must include maintenance, repair, charging where relevant, and secure parking. ADEME supports subscriptions to services operated by local providers rather than the acquisition of equipment, which is intended to address maintenance and waste concerns. Each project must include internal animation run alongside the service launch, with a named referent at the employer. Expected actions include mobility workshops, bike-return days, information meetings, repair workshops, cycling communities and challenges. Employers must also provide a road-safety training course for service users. Walking should be considered in wider mobility activities, though it is outside the call's scope. Applicants must plan monitoring and indicators at submission, and ADEME will request qualitative and quantitative evaluations after 6 months and after one year of use. The call has closed. Submissions ran from 10 March 2026 to 22 September 2026, with closing time stated as 19:00. The winners list is to be published on the page in the months after closure.

Eligibility

All companies and associations located on the island of La Réunion or Mayotte are eligible. Individuals, State departments, and local authorities (collectivités) are not eligible, and neither are winners of the previous 2023 and 2024 editions. Applicants must have a user account on the ADEME Agir platform to submit. The page lists two applicant profiles, Entreprise and Association, and requires the applicant's region (La Réunion or Mayotte) to be selected.
