RFCS Coal Research Projects

Funds early-stage coal-transition research — carbon capture, mine repurposing, worker reskilling — under the Research Fund for Coal & Steel.

Applicants submit the Standard Application Form (RFCS) through the EU Funding & Tenders Portal by the single-stage deadline. This topic carried an indicative EUR 7 million share of the wider RFCS-2025 call, the largest of the three coal topics, alongside matching steel topics under the same call document.
