Important notice:

Please note that the submission system for RIA topics of this call (topics ending 01, 03, 04 and 05) has been modified to allow submission of a technical annex without any size limit (versus 45 pages before); this will allow applicants to topic HORIZON-CL5-2024-D2-01-05 to submit proposals with up to 60 pages as foreseen in the Work Programme for this topic. As a result there will be no warning from the submission system in case the annex is more than 45 pages (topics 01, 03 and 04) or more than 60 pages (topic 05), therefore please ensure you submit a proposal with the correct length. Excess pages will be disregarded during the evaluation of proposals.

Please note that the template annex available in the submission system has been updated, only to mention the exception of 60 pages for topic HORIZON-CL5-2024-D2-01-05 in the ‘instructions’ page.
Please also note that topic 02 (IA) is not affected by the change.

TOPIC ID: HORIZON-CL5-2024-D2-01-04

Programme: Horizon Europe Framework Programme (HORIZON)
Call: Cross-sectoral solutions for the climate transition (HORIZON-CL5-2024-D2-01)
Type of action: HORIZON-RIA HORIZON Research and Innovation Actions
Type of MGA: HORIZON Action Grant Budget-Based [HORIZON-AG]

Topic description
 
ExpectedOutcome:

Project results are expected to contribute to all of the following expected outcomes:

  1. Demonstration of knowledge and scientific proofs of the technological feasibility of concepts on high risk/high return (i.e. high technological and economic risks) technologies for transition to climate neutral economy by 2050 and beyond.
  2. Assessment of environmental, social, and economic benefits to contribute to R&I strategy, as well as the EU climate and energy targets.
  3. Contribution to establishing a solid long-term dependable innovation in Europe.
Scope:

This topic focusses on the development of novel bottom-up technological solutions with breakthrough potential across all parts of the energy sector value chain, as well as all energy-related aspects in the transport sector.

Projects supported under this topic should consider at least one of the following areas:

  • Energy distribution and transmission.
  • Long-term energy storage.
  • Novel energy generation/conversion methods.

The following areas should not be covered, as they fall within either partnerships or other calls:

  • Renewable energy technologies covered under the call D3-1-49 on ‘Next generation of renewable technologies) and renewable hydrogen production.
  • Batteries and especially long-term electricity storage technologies, covered under D3-2-17 as well as flow batteries.
  • Material research.

The proposal should: i) present a robust research methodology including ambitious yet realistic conversion efficiency targets to be validated in the lab ii) establish the technological feasibility of the proposed concept iii) include a proper assessment of environmental, social, and economic benefits and iv) consider the applicability of the proposed technology in various sectors.

Proposals are expected to fulfil the following conditions:

In developing its concept, the proposal should address the following aspects:

  • Low environmental impact (e.g. on climate change and pollution) quantified based on Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) framework.
  • Barriers to the deployment of such technologies, including issues related to social acceptability or resistance to new energy technologies, related socioeconomic and livelihood issues globally.

Prospective life cycle approach to be done with the relevant information that can be gathered at such TRL level.

Specific Topic Conditions:

 

Activities are expected to achieve TRL 4 by the end of the project – see General Annex B.
