Application process open for ERDF Funding Guideline Energy and Climate
It is now possible to submit applications for the ERDF Funding Guideline Energy and Climate - FRL EuK/2023, which was published on 4th of July 2023. A total of EUR 242.8 million in funding can be used up to the end of 2028 to address the energy transition issues, climate protection and climate adaptation in the Free State of Saxony.
Four modules are currently being funded as part of the guideline:
- Application-oriented energy and climate research
- Energy efficiency and reduction of greenhouse gas emissions
- Enhancing efforts to adapt to the consequences of climate change
- Sustainable energy supply
Universities as well as extramural non-profit research institutions in the Free State of Saxony and the Berufsakademie Sachsen (Saxony University of Cooperative Education) are eligible to apply for funding in the module Application-oriented Energy and Climate Research. Funding is provided for application-oriented and preferably application-related, pre-competitive research projects with a thematic focus in particular on energy efficiency technologies as well as renewable energy technologies, climate adaptation and circular economy.
Funding for institutions of higher education, extramural non-profit research institutions in the Free State of Saxony, and the Berufsakademie Sachen amounts to 100 percent of the eligible costs/expenses.
There is a two-stage digital application process. As stipulated in the Notice from the Vice-Rector Research 2/2023, the EPC (Unit 5.2) accompanies the projects of TU Dresden and must be involved in the application process. The EPC advises on the application process, has power of attorney for legally binding signatures with regard to the SAB and has central access to the SAB's funding portal for submitting project proposals.
