Deadline: 16-Nov-22
The European Commission (EC) is calling for proposals for Supporting the clean energy transition of the business sector.
Scope
Proposals should address one of the two scopes below. The scope addressed should be clearly specified in the proposal’s introduction.
- Scope A: Foster a favourable energy audits ecosystem
- Scope B: Unlock the energy efficiency and renewable potential at value chain level
Objective
Accelerating the transition of EU companies towards a sustainable growth model is one of the ambitious objectives of the European Green Deal, as they face various barriers that deter energy efficiency measures. In 2019, the industry and services sectors made up almost 40% of the total EU-27 final energy consumption (respectively accounting for 25.6% and 13.7%). Moreover, in line with the REPowerEU plan to phase out EU dependence on fossil fuels imports, facilitating the clean energy transition of EU companies through a larger uptake of energy audits and collaborative approaches has the potential to sensibly reduce EU fuels imports.
