[ ERA-NET Bioenergy | 14th Joint Call for proposals ]
In this joint call, ERA-NET Bioenergy aims to fund innovative, transnational research, development and innovation (R&D&I) projects in the field of bioenergy. The topic of the 14th Joint Call for Research and Development Proposals is “Development and improvement of biomass conversion technologies for the provisioning of heat for industrial processes”
Funding will be offered to excellent proposals that provide clear added value through cooperation of partners in at least two (preferably more) participating countries. Novelty beyond the state of the art in the bioenergy value chain addressed must be significant, and evidence of exploitation potential must be provided (e.g. by way of tangible industry commitment).
Public funding is available for this joint call from funding bodies in Austria, Germany, Poland and Switzerland (via the Swiss Federal Office of Energy – SFOE).
