Deadline: 27-Oct-22
The European Commission (EC) is accepting proposals for Technological Interfaces between Solar Fuel Technologies and Other Renewables.
Scope
Development of energy transmitting technological interfaces to couple solar fuel technologies to other renewables such as from e.g. biosources or directly connected renewable power generation, which allow for efficient feed in of other forms of renewable energy into solar fuel conversion technologies and allow for efficient and continuous renewable fuel production.
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).
Expected Outcomes
Project results are expected to contribute to some of the following expected outcomes:
- Advance the European scientific basis, technological leadership and global role in the area of renewable and solar fuels, while creating evidence for policy making;
- Provide breakthrough solutions towards a fossil-free economy and ecosystem by bridging solar energy and other renewables in boosting renewable fuel production and storage with the potential of strongly reducing CAPEX and OPEX/toe, high penetration in the energy system, ensuring stability and security of energy supply;
- Increase European technology competitiveness in solar and renewable fuel technologies, thus supporting the EU goals for climate protection, energy independence and economic growth.
Eligibility Criteria
To be eligible for funding, applicants must be established in one of the eligible countries, i.e.:
- the Member States of the European Union, including their outermost regions;
- the Overseas Countries and Territories (OCTs) linked to the Member States;
-
eligible non-EU countries:
- countries associated to Horizon Europe;
- low- and middle-income countries.
