Grants on Green Deal Innovations for Economic Recovery
Deadline: 6-Oct-21
The European Commission (EC) is offering grants on Green Deal Innovations for Economic Recovery.
This call will complement and be coordinated with activities supported by other relevant pan-European public-private and public-public partnerships for circular bio-based solutions, green hydrogen, batteries or low-carbon industries. In particular it will focus on disruptive and breakthrough innovations by SMEs (including midcaps) and start-ups. This will also contribute to the implementation of various EU-wide initiatives, including the New Industrial Strategy for Europe regarding the decarbonisation and modernisation of energy intensive industries, the Renovation Wave for more energy efficient buildings, the Biodiversity Strategy, the Farm to Fork Strategy or the new Circular Economy Action Plan.
