The "Clean Energy Transition Co-Funded Partnership" aims to continue supporting the European Clean Energy Transition Partnership (CET Partnership) identified in the Horizon Europe Strategic Plan 2021-2024. This initiative seeks to boost and accelerate the energy transition by pooling national and regional R&I funding programs. Building upon previous successes, the partnership intends to empower the energy transition and contribute to the EU goal of becoming the first climate-neutral continent by 2050.
The partnership will fund additional activities and potentially include new partners to reinforce its ambition, considering the revised Strategic Energy Technology (SET) Plan. It will explore pathways and develop new actions to reinforce R&I investments that accelerate the clean energy transition, supporting the objectives of REPowerEU. The CET Partnership enables national and regional R&I program owners and managers from Member States and Associated Countries to align their priorities and implement annual joint calls from 2025 to 2027.
This call invites proposals to continue the envisioned partnership, ensuring a seamless continuation of its strategy, objectives, and actions. Applicants should describe plans to set up joint calls, explore synergies with other European partnerships, and include additional activities that justify their added value compared to ongoing actions.
Opening Date: 06 May 2025
Deadline: 16 September 2025
