Deadline: 19-Oct-21
The European Commission (EC) is pleased to launch the Clean Energy Transition to empower the energy transition and contribute from a R&I perspective to the EU’s goal of becoming the first climate-neutral continent by 2050.
The Clean Energy Transition partnership is expected to contribute to the overarching goal of transitioning to a clean energy system by pooling national and regional resources/funding programmes thus overcoming a fragmented approach.
Areas
In its Strategic Research and Innovation Agenda, the Clean Energy Transition Partnership will address the following areas:
- Development of clean and affordable energy production and conversion technologies;
- development of a climate neutral, flexible and robust energy system; storage and its integration in the energy system;
- resource and energy efficiency and circular flows in the energy sector for an ecologically sustainable energy system;
- a just and inclusive energy transition;
- sector integration and coupling; and
- digital transformation.
Funding Information
The check will normally be done for the coordinator if the requested grant amount is equal to or greater than EUR 500 000, except for:
- public bodies (entities established as a public body under national law, including local, regional or national authorities) or international organisations; and
- cases where the individual requested grant amount is not more than EUR 60 000 (lowvalue grant).

- the Member States of the European Union, including their outermost regions;
