Starting from September 17th, 2024, interested parties can apply to the Horizon Europe call for developing system to exploit captured CO2 in fuel. The call will grant a 7 million euro budget to 2 project, for a total of 15 million euros.
What do the proposals have to address?
The proposals will target the advancement of energy-efficient and economically viable CO2 conversion technologies, encompassing energy storage and/or the displacement of fossil fuels. Each application must outline ambitious yet attainable targets for the conversion process's energy requirements, production costs, and product yields. These defined targets will serve as benchmarks for monitoring project implementation.
Additionally, proposals must assess the potential of the proposed Carbon Capture and Utilization (CCU) solution(s) as CO2 mitigation options through a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA). This assessment should align with Commission guidelines, including the Innovation Fund GHG methodology, relevant ISO sta
