Following the Council Implementing Decision (EU) 2022/2506, as of 16th December 2022, no legal commitments (including the grant agreement itself as well as subcontracts, purchase contracts, financial support to third parties etc.) can be signed with Hungarian public interest trusts established under Hungarian Act IX of 2021 or any entity they maintain.
Affected entities may continue to apply to calls for proposals. However, in case the Council measures are not lifted, such entities are not eligible to participate in any funded role (beneficiaries, affiliated entities, subcontractors, recipients of financial support to third parties).
[OPTION FOR MULTI-BENEFICIARY GRANT CALLS: In this case, co-applicants will be invited to remove or replace that entity [SUB-OPTION FOR CALLS ALLOWING ASSOCIATED PARTNERS: and/or to change its status into associated partner]. Tasks and budget may be redistributed accordingly]

Photovoltaic power generation is pivotal to a clean energy system and the achievement of the net zero-emissions target. To this end, it is important to enhance affordability, sustainability and exploit the modularity and synergies of application of PV technologies.
Consequently, project results are expected to contribute to all of the following outcomes:
Floating PV (FPV) has huge potential in uncovered waterbodies, presenting an opportunity for solar energy production in areas where difficult terrain or land constraints make ground-mounted systems impractical. However, FPV also face a plethora of challenges for various environmental conditions such as wind, wave, currents, water level variations and humid and corrosive environment that could adversely affect the electrical output and life of the plant.
Proposals are expected to:
A plan for the exploitation and dissemination of results should include a strong business case and sound exploitation strategy, as outlined in the introduction to this Destination. The exploitation plan should include preliminary plans for scalability, commercialisation, and deployment (feasibility study, business plan) indicating the possible funding sources to be potentially used (in particular the Innovation Fund).
Specific Topic Conditions:Activities are expected to achieve TRL 6-7 by the end of the project – see General Annex B.
