Call for proposals: Environmental monitoring of wave and tidal devices

in #eu-funding7 years ago

The development of an ocean energy industry in Europe fits into several of the EU's key priorities in terms of Energy Union and Climate, Jobs, Growth and Investment.

As a renewable energy, it should contribute to the EU's goals for greenhouse gas emission reductions and support the EU's implementation plan for the COP21 Paris agreement. It can also contribute to the Atlantic Strategy objective of reducing the Atlantic region's carbon footprint.

The Commission adopted in 2014 a Communication on Blue Energy, which recognised the immense potential of harnessing the power of our seas and oceans. Ocean energy could make a substantial contribution to providing clean, predictable, indigenous and reliable energy in the future.

The action covered by this call for proposals forms part of the European Maritime and Fisheries Fund (EMFF) Work Programme, whose implementation is delegated to Executive Agency for Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (EASME).

Dates: 16/10/2017 to 19/01/2018 at 16:00, Brussels time zone.
