NZIA regulatory sandbox exchange forum support
Pays a single coordination project to help Member States compare and improve their Net-Zero Industry Act regulatory sandboxes for testing new net-zero technologies.
The comparative analysis this project delivers needs to cover five distinct angles: the regulatory barriers facing innovative net-zero technologies, how each country's sandbox scheme and application procedure actually works, what happens in concrete trials, the impacts and regulatory lessons those trials produce, and lessons learnt more broadly, plus a look at other forms of regulatory experimenta…
The call wants a coordination and support action that helps Member States' net-zero regulatory sandbox contact points and competent authorities exchange information, lessons learnt and good practice under the Net-Zero Industry Act. It covers comparative analysis of national legislative frameworks, sandbox schemes and concrete trials, and building a public repository of sandbox schemes and projects across the Union.
