What this call funds
This call funds research and demonstration projects that study and reduce the environmental impact of ships and boats switching to low carbon and zero carbon fuels. It covers understanding pollution risks from these new fuels, including accidental spills, and developing and demonstrating technologies to prevent, reduce or clean up this pollution in seas, rivers and ports. Two projects are expected to be funded with a combined budget of 14 million euros, and results must be demonstrated at TRL 5 by project end.
