The European Union Emissions Trading Scheme (EU ETS), the world’s largest carbon pricing system, will provide revenue to the IF program by auctioning €450 million from emission allowances from 2020 to 2030, as well as any unused funds from the NER300 program. For the 2020-2030 period, funding may amount to around €40 billion, depending on the price of carbon credits issued.
Innovation Fund aims to contribute to the EU’s economic recovery in an environmentally sustainable way, helping companies to invest in clean energy and industries and boost their economic growth, create new local jobs and generate a competitive advantage for the EU’s industrial sector.
The Innovation Fund (IF) program is one of the world’s leading funding initiatives for the development of innovative low-carbon technologies. IF focuses on truly innovative technologies and large flagship projects with European added value that can deliver significant CO2 emission reductions. It involves sharing the risk with project promoters to assist them in the demonstration phase of first-of-a-kind highly innovative projects.
The Innovation Fund focuses on the following initiatives and project types:
Successor to the NER 300 program (2012-2014) funded by the EU Emissions Trading System includes the following improvements:

Do you know that the European Commission considers us as experts in attracting innovation funds through the Innovation Funds call? We are coordinators of the REALIZE project, thanks to which we will provide advice for 2 years for the presentation of the IF 2025/2026 programme.
Our team provides a very personalised service according to the type of technology, analysing the emission reduction potential and other evaluable parameters of the IF programme to ensure competitive projects with a high subsidy margin.
