The ERANET Accelerating CCUS Technologies (ERANET ACT) has opened the doors to funding again: pre-proposals are due by 10 November 2020 and, if invited to proceed, full proposals by 15 March 2021.

The ERANET Accelerating CCUS Technologies (ACT) is an initiative to facilitate the emergence of CO2 Capture, Utilization and Storage (CCUS) via transnational funding of projects. Successful projects need to accelerate and mature CCUS technology through targeted innovation and research activities.
