Découvrir Horizon Europe

ExpectedOutcome:
Renewable fuels of the future will be also based on algae and non-biological feedstock for sectors that depend on and operate with dense fuels. Improving these technologies will contribute to advance the European scientific basis and global technological leadership in the area of renewable fuels, increase their technology competitiveness and role in transforming the energy system on a fossil-free basis by 2050, in particular for hard to electrify sectors like aviation, while supporting the EU goals for energy independence.
Project results are expected to contribute to some of the following expected outcomes:
Scope:
Proposals will develop and improve algal and/or non-biological renewable fuel technologies (other than for hydrogen as a final product), through developing synthetic pathways including biological, biochemical, thermochemical, electrochemical processes or combinations of them. Improving the performance of the conversion process by increasing the efficiency, reducing the cost and decreasing the GHG emissions from the production should be addressed beyond the current state of the art. Implementing and improving circularity for energy and material use should be considered, also as means to enhance sustainability and economic feasibility of the proposed concepts. Proposals should also address systemic constraints and opportunities for scaling-up algal and non-biological renewable fuel technologies.
Eligible costs will take the form of a lump sum.
Specific Topic Conditions:
Activities are expected to achieve TRL 4-5 by the end of the project – see General Annex B.
