The main objective of this call is to support projects that drive innovative and sustainable solar fuel technologies, aiming to accelerate the transition to more efficient energy sources and replace fossil fuel-based technologies. The goal is to reduce costs, enhance efficiency, and strengthen the European industry's leadership position in this field by addressing key challenges in the solar fuels value chain. Additionally, emphasis is placed on sustainability, international collaboration, and the improvement of energy security and reliability in Europe.

Applications must be submitted electronically via the Funding & Tenders Portal electronic
submission system (accessible via the topic page in the Search Funding & Tenders section).
Paper submissions are NOT possible.

Applications must include a plan for the exploitation and dissemination of results
including communication activities, unless provided otherwise in the specific call
conditions.

the limit for a full application is
45 pages

Unless otherwise provided for in the specific call conditions, only legal entities forming a consortium are eligible to participate in actions provided that the consortium includes, as beneficiaries, three legal entities independent from each other and each established in a different country as follows:
-at least one independent legal entity established in a Member State; and
-at least two other independent legal entities, each established in different Member
States or Associated Countries.

Project results are expected to contribute to at least 3 of the following expected outcomes:

Availability of disruptive and sustainable solar fuel technologies in order to accelerate the replacement of fossil-based energy technologies with more efficient use of primary solar energy in solar fuel production.
Reduced cost and improved efficiency of solar-based renewable fuel technologies and their value chains by addressing rate-limiting steps in the solar fuels value chain.
Increase technology leadership, competitiveness and technology export potential of European industry in possibly game-changing solar fuel and synthetic biological technologies.
Enhanced sustainability of solar fuels, taking fully into account circular economy, social, economic and environmental aspects in line with the European Green Deal priorities.
Reinforced European scientific basis and European export potential for renewable energy technologies through international collaborations (e.g., the AU-EU Climate Change and Sustainable Energy partnership, the missions and innovation communities of Mission Innovation 2.0).
Increasing the European energy security and reliability by improving the solar fuel conversion efficiency as well as maintaining and fostering the European global leadership in affordable, secure and sustainable solar fuel technologies.
