The LIFE Call for Proposals 2022 is inviting stakeholders actively working on accelerating the clean energy transition and decarbonising Europe to submit their project ideas.
The LIFE Clean Energy Transition Call 2022 has 18 funding topics covering important aspects of driving forward the clean energy transition in Europe in all areas of life such as
- boosting energy communities and the engagement of citizens in the transition;
- creating a better finance framework for sustainable energy;
- eradicating energy poverty;
- getting sustainable energy investment projects off the ground;
- building up and training the national work forces to deliver a decarbonised building stock;
- supporting local and regional public authorities in planning carbon neutrality;
- setting up one-stop-shops for home renovation or public buildings renovations;
- accelerating the deployment of heat pumps in line with RePowerEU;
- supporting the clean energy transition of the business sector;
