Scope. Projects are expected to align with the EUROGIA2030 programme's objective of developing and commercialising low-carbon technologies through international R&D cooperation. Proposals should address significant technological challenges related to clean energy supply, decarbonisation, smart energy systems, sustainable buildings, green mobility or environmental technologies. Projects should demonstrate a credible route from research and development to commercial application.
Sectors. Renewable energy technologies and integrated energy systems. Hydrogen economy, electrolysers, fuel cells and hydrogen infrastructure. Carbon capture, storage, utilisation and carbon management. Energy storage, smart grids and decentralised energy systems. Electric mobility, green transport and smart-city technologies. Sustainable buildings, heating, cooling and low-carbon construction. Bio-based resources, recycling and environmental monitoring. AI, IoT, advanced sensors, digitalisation and automation for energy efficiency.
Eligible applicants. International consortia comprising at least two independent legal entities from at least two Eureka member countries are generally required. Companies, SMEs, large enterprises, research and technology organisations, and universities may participate, subject to the relevant national funding rules. Projects must have a civilian purpose and target an innovative product, process or service with commercialisation potential. Turkish municipalities may potentially participate in EUROGIA2030 projects as associated partners or pilot-site providers, subject to approval by the EUROGIA Secretariat.
Key requirements. Proposals are generally expected to: develop an innovative product, process or service with commercialisation potential; demonstrate technical excellence and progress beyond existing solutions; establish a balanced international consortium with clear roles for each partner; present a sound work plan, budget, milestones and risk-management strategy; demonstrate economic benefits and potential market impact in participating countries; explain the expected contribution to decarbonisation and environmental sustainability; comply with national funding conditions, including any separate national application requirements.
Funding & duration. EUROGIA2030 does not provide a single universal funding rate or central grant amount for all participants. Funding is provided through national funding bodies, with rates and eligible costs depending on the country, organisation type and R&D activities. The exact budget, funding conditions and project duration for Call 33 must be confirmed in the official call documentation.
