Summary
This topic refers to works projects contributing to the implementation of a CB RES project. Works in the meaning of CEF Energy include the purchase, supply and deployment of components, systems and services including software, the development, construction and installation activities relating to a CB RES project, the acceptance of installations and the launching of a CB RES project.
Detailed Call Description
Applications related to construction works must comply with the specific conditions laid down in the CEF regulation for this project category. In particular, specific conditions relate to, inter alia, the existence of significant cost savings and/or benefits in terms of system integration, environmental sustainability, security of supply and innovation, as well as the commercial non-viability of the envisaged investments without CEF support.
Works proposals related to project components that are covered by Article 3 of the delegated regulation are eligible.
For each of the CB RES projects, the list of components that are included in the CB RES status can be found in the above-mentioned technical documentation supporting the Delegated Regulation that establishes the CB RES list. Proposals for works can cover any of the elements of the CB RES status project contained in the technical documentation unless otherwise provided.
All other things being equal, proposals for works which relate to renewables generation components will be given priority over proposals which relate to non-RES components through the award criterion ‘Priority and urgency’.
If a proposal for works contains a non-RES component, then it has to justify the necessity of this component to the overall CB RES project implementation and prove that the component is essential for the renewable energy generation.
