On 05 July 2016, the European Commission launched three Horizon Prizes to encourage innovation and find solutions to challenges in the area of energy.

Horizon Prizes are challenge prizes (also known as 'inducement' prizes) which offer a cash reward to whoever can most effectively meet a defined challenge. They act as an incentive for innovation by prescribing the goal, but not how the goal should be achieved.

• CO₂ reuse prize – Development of innovative products which reuse CO₂ in order to significantly improve net CO₂ emissions, Prize: 1.5 Mio. EUR, Deadline: 03 April 2019

• Low carbon hospital – Development of an innovative renewable energy solution integrating several technologies into one energy system in a hospital,
  Prize: 1 Mio. EUR, Deadline: 03 April 2019

• Photovoltaics meets history – Integration of photovoltaic energy sources in buildings of a European protected historic urban district, Prize: 750,000 EUR, Deadline: 26 September 2018
