The Green Deal Call under the Horizon 2020 research and innovation program offers funding opportunities in line with the EU’s roadmap towards a climate-neutral Europe in 2050. The total budget of the call is 1 billion Euro and the deadline is 26 January 2021. Swiss legal entities like companies, universities, research organizations or NGOs are fully eligible for funding.
The broad range of topics aims for projects that respond to the climate crisis and help protect Europe’s ecosystem and biodiversity. Horizon 2020 Green Deal Call focuses on rapid scalability, dissemination and uptake to bring real benefits to Europeans in their daily life.
Topic areas include:
- secure energy
