Explanation:
My hunch would have been 'sinking fund' though it doesn't go with incentives.

grant


Explanation:
A grant is not required to be repaid. It's "free money" to be used for a specific purpose. Goes perfectly well in the context of incentives.
The problem with using "non-repayable" is that this implies it CANNOT be repaid. The truth is it NEED NOT be repaid. The recipient would only have to give it back if he/she did not, in the end, use it for the specified purpose.

As for non-refundable, I can't quite make that work. I did see, once in a World Bank glossary, the term "non-reimbursable" but many of those terms are specific to WB business.

non-repayable


Explanation:
OR
non-returnable


The incentives available may be repayable or non-repayable. Incentives awarded on a repayable basis can be converted into non-repayable grants by means of a completion award based on the project’s results in terms of gains in productivity and competitiveness. Incentives equivalent to a maximum of 75% of qualifying costs can be awarded to public entities and non-profit making bodies. The regulations for awarding regional aid apply to incentives awarded to profit-making bodies and cannot exceed 50% of qualifying costs. Qualifying costs are specifically defined for each application process according to the area of activity involved.
