Smart integration of net zero technologies into Energy Intensive industries is a European Commission Innovation Action, implementing the co-programmed Processes4Planet and Made in Europe partnerships, that funds three consortia from a twenty-five million euro budget, each award worth between five and nine million euros, to pair a manufacturer of net-zero technology with an energy-intensive industr…
The call wants innovation actions that pair a manufacturer of net-zero technology with an energy-intensive industrial user (and where relevant engineering or construction firms), so the two sides jointly design and demonstrate how to fit net-zero equipment into an existing industrial plant. It targets moving from custom, project-by-project integration toward more standardised, replicable solutions.
