The best funding landscape – and the strictest rules

Energy and environmental technology is on almost every funding agenda: national, regional and at EU level. The amounts are correspondingly large and the conditions correspondingly strict. Almost all programmes require the application before the project starts, many require a research partner, and with several programmes running side by side, cumulation becomes a topic of its own.

What gets clarified first

1

Is the research share documented?

It decides the largest programmes. Without documentation you are left with efficiency and advisory funding – the difference is considerable.

It decides the largest programmes.

2

Is there a research partner?

Many programmes require a university or an institute. If the partner is missing, that appears in the report as a gap with a time requirement, not as an exclusion.

3

How many programmes are running side by side?

Several grants for the same project are delicate. If the source says two programmes rule each other out, the report says which comes first.

FAQ

Frequent questions from the industry

Often yes, but not for the same costs and not without limit. If the source says two programmes rule each other out, the report says which comes first.

On the contrary. There are dedicated programmes for research and prototypes, and an early application protects your entitlement. It only gets too late with the first order or purchase.
