Scope
Expected Outcome: In 2015, the launch of the Energy Union saw the SET Plan (Strategic Energy Technology Plan) incorporated as the Energy Union’s fifth pillar on ‘Research, Innovation and Competitiveness’. With the 2023 Communication on the revision of the SET Plan, its strategic objectives were harmonised with the European Green Deal, REPowerEU and the Green Deal Industrial Plan. Moreover, the SET Plan became a structural policy under the European Research Area. In 2024, the SET Plan was enshrined in the Net Zero Industry Act and the SET Plan Steering Group was established as a high-level expert group. In the geothermal sector, European Technology and Innovation Platform (ETIP), and SET Plan Implementation Working Group (IWG) fora support the development and implementation of the SET Plan priorities by bringing together relevant stakeholders in geothermal energy key areas from industry, research organisations and, where applicable, SET Plan countries’ government representatives. It is crucial for the clean energy transition that the SET Plan stakeholder fora align and coordinate their activities. Project results are expected to contribute to all of the following outcomes: European climate and energy policies are supported by science-based evidence. The implementation of the SET Plan and its contribution to the Green Deal Industrial Plan, the Net Zero Industry Act and the European Research Area are facilitated. The SET Plan stakeholder fora are recognised as key players in the clean energy transition. The societal and economic effects of the clean energy transition are addressed through the consideration of interests, needs and concerns of end users and actors across the value chain of the respective technology sectors. Scope: The project is expected to support the ETIP and IWG in the sector of geothermal energy, taking into consideration the specific needs of the sector, the emerging European policy priorities, and the coordination with other initiatives (to avoid overlaps). In line with the Recovery Plan for Europe and the latest EU climate and energy related policies (notably the National Energy and Climate Plans), geothermal stakeholder fora are expected to develop research and innovation roadmaps and/or analyses (e.g., strategic research and innovation agendas, strategic reports, industrial strategies, analyses of market opportunities and funding needs, studies on innovation barriers, assessments of their sectors’ contribution to the European competitiveness and strategic autonomy). Special attention should be given, as appropriate, to the key challe…
Get told when something changes
Most institutions find out about a call with three weeks left. We write when something opens, moves or closes that fits what you work on, with the deadline, the fit and the funder's own exclusion clauses quoted. Nothing in a quiet week. Free, and one click to leave.
Starting from the programme you are reading: Horizon Europe (HORIZON) — change it below if you like.
Leave the second box empty and you get whatever opened or changed recently, closing soonest. Fill it in and it ranks against your words instead: that is the difference between a list and a shortlist.
Scientific Network Management will send you the current list for these terms, and after that only what changes: a call that opens, a deadline that shifts, a clause that rules you out. Nothing is sent when nothing has moved. One click to stop, in every message.
One confirmation email and nothing else until you click it. No tracking pixels, no sharing, one click to unsubscribe.
Of every 100 Horizon Europe proposals
A funding strategy reads your institution's own published record against the calls that are open, and says in writing which are worth the year and which to decline, with the reason for each.
