Preparing for large-scale CCAM demonstrations (CCAM Partnership) – Societal Readiness Pilot
Pays one coordination project up to EUR 4.5 million to plan large-scale, Europe-wide field tests of self-driving vehicles ahead of future demonstration projects.
This Coordination and Support Action is a CCAM Partnership Societal Readiness Pilot from the European Commission that pays one project up to EUR 4.5 million to plan large-scale, Europe-wide field tests of automated vehicles ahead of future demonstration projects. The winning consortium does not run the vehicle demonstrations itself: its job is to define the technical, infrastructure and regulatory…
The Commission wants a project that prepares the ground for large-scale, cross-European field tests of connected and automated vehicles — defining the technical, infrastructure and regulatory prerequisites, identifying test sites, and building a cross-sector stakeholder forum — rather than running the demonstrations itself. Proposals should build on past CCAM Partnership projects and, as a Societal Readiness pilot, bring in social-science expertise alongside the engineering.
