Climate Tech grants in Germany

Closed

Funds two €5M research consortia building tools that map ecosystem responses to climate and policy pressures, verified in real biogeographic case studies.

Closed

Funds two €6.5M research projects building the tools to predict biodiversity loss and keep protected areas working as pressures intensify.

Closed

Funds two €6M projects that show how farmers can earn from carbon and biodiversity credits without shrinking Europe's food supply.

Closed

Funds two €4M projects for European consortia building bio-based products and studying whether people will actually adopt them.

Closed

Funds research consortia developing the pre-normative science behind future standards for bio-based chemicals, polymers and other bio-based products.

Closed

Funds two €7M projects that make bio-based packaging films and coatings perform better, work in factories and support circular end-of-life routes.

Closed

Funds three €4M lump-sum grants for industrial and environmental biotech — synthetic biology, gene editing, biofoundries — not health biotech or biofuels.

Closed

Funds two €3M projects that build the monitoring tools and EU-wide data to map how much biomass Europe supplies and needs, tested in at least 10 countries.

Closed

Funds two €3.25M projects that turn sustainable biomass or bio-based textile waste into high-performing, circular fibres.

Closed

Funds two €5M consortia building city and regional systems that collect, sort and repair textiles instead of sending them to landfill.

Closed

Funds five €9.5M projects that pair construction innovators with city partners to build and demonstrate circular-economy tools and business models.

Closed

Funds eight €15–25M lump-sum projects that turn carbon capture, clean energy and circular production ideas into market-ready industrial demonstrations.

Closed

Funds €15–25M lump-sum projects led by industry to mature energy, power, storage, fuels or CCU solutions from TRL 6 to market-ready deployment.

Closed

Funds two €5M projects building the tech and the market to make recycled electronics a real source of critical raw materials for Europe.

Closed

Funds two €9M projects that capture a factory's own waste heat and put it back into the process, proven at a live plant and built for EU-wide reuse.

Closed

Funds consortia developing biotech and nature-based decontamination methods for war-damaged land, water and air, proven on real sites in Ukraine.

Closed

Funds one €10M project to build the scientific methods and indicators that track how noise from human activity disrupts marine ecosystems across EU seas.

Closed

Funds two €6M projects piloting road-safety fixes and a climate-risk mapping tool for rural roads, to help regional authorities cut crash deaths.

Closed

Funds two €10M projects that test and scale soil-resilience solutions across at least three EU regions, run jointly by the Soil and Climate Adaptation Missions.

Closed

Funds demonstrations that separate poly-blend garments and home fabrics so European recyclers can turn them into new fibre, up to €6M per project.

Closed

Funds two €6M projects that store wet-season water underground so farms can draw on it when drought hits.

Closed

Funds one €93M wind-energy project — split across breakthrough R&D, technology validation, and at least three real-world demonstrations.

Closed

Funds one coordination project that builds a joint EU-African Union roadmap and funding plan for climate research cooperation.

Closed

Funds research that models how soil properties and land suitability shape biomass production and soil health across European farmland, forests and peatlands.
