Code: 16539 | Identifier Code: ERASMUS-EDU-2022-EUR-UNIV | Programme name: 2918 | Start submission calls: 30/11/2021 | End submission calls: 22/03/2022

The scope of this call for proposals is to support higher education institutions in gradually achieving their long-term ambitious vision towards becoming a fully-fledged European University.
European Universities aim to promote common European values by bringing together a new generation of Europeans who are able to cooperate and work within different European and global cultures, in different languages, and across borders, sectors and academic disciplines. Also they aim to reach a substantial leap in quality, performance, attractiveness and international competitiveness and enable deep institutional transformation of involved European higher education institutions.
This objective will be achieved through a twofold approach:

• TOPIC 1: European Universities – Intensification of prior deep institutional transnational cooperation

• TOPIC 2: European Universities – Development of new deep institutional transnational cooperation

Towards a silent and ultra-low local air pollution aircraft

Closed

Code: 16537 | Identifier Code: HORIZON-CL5-2022-D5-01-12 | Programme name: 2939 | Sub-program: Climate, Energy and Mobility (Cluster 5)(2021-2027) | Start submission calls: 02/12/2021 | End submission calls: 26/04/2022

Exploiting electrical energy storage systems and better optimising large battery electric power within fully battery electric and hybrid ships (ZEWT Partnership)

Closed

Code: 16535 | Identifier Code: HORIZON-CL5-2022-D5-01-01 | Programme name: 2939 | Sub-program: Climate, Energy and Mobility (Cluster 5)(2021-2027) | Start submission calls: 02/12/2021 | End submission calls: 26/04/2022

Electrification and electrical energy storage is one of the major drivers for climate neutrality in the waterborne sector. 100% electrical power can potentially be used on any kind of vessel, with an initial focus on ferries and short sea shipping where re-charging can be frequent, but also extending within hybrid applications to larger vessels on longer routes as well as to high power vessels and high-end complex ships with a high number and a wide variety of electrical consumers.

New generation of full electric urban and peri-urban Bus Rapid Transit systems to strengthen climate-friendly mass transport (2ZERO)

Closed

Code: 16519 | Identifier Code: HORIZON-CL5-2022-D5-01-10 | Programme name: 2939 | Sub-program: Climate, Energy and Mobility (Cluster 5)(2021-2027) | Start submission calls: 02/12/2021 | End submission calls: 26/04/2022

Τhe investment in innovations in city buses (e.g. clean propulsion) can be optimized through BRT systems. As such, revisiting the concept of BRT with new, enabling technologies and solutions offers a key opportunity to reduce the carbon footprint of the transport sector, particularly in cities.
The focus of projects is expected to be on mass transport, full electric Bus Rapid Transit (e-BRT) systems using full size buses (M3).

Electrical machines are a fundamental part of zero emission powertrains for all classes of road vehicles, but the target of this topic is the core market (with powertrains of 50-120kW continuous power).

Transformation of the existing fleet towards greener operations through retrofitting (ZEWT Partnership)

Closed

Code: 16506 | Identifier Code: HORIZON-CL5-2022-D5-01-04 | Programme name: 2939 | Sub-program: Climate, Energy and Mobility (Cluster 5)(2021-2027) | Start submission calls: 02/12/2021 | End submission calls: 26/04/2022

Progress towards climate neutrality of waterborne transport can be achieved more quickly by means of retrofit solutions that improve the performance of the existing fleet (sea-going and IWT) whilst solutions which are exclusive to new ships can only be implemented at the pace of the commercially driven fleet renewal.
With the comparatively long life cycles of waterborne assets and their high initial capital costs addressing the existing fleet is paramount in order to achieve fast and tangible results. Therefore, interventions that are easily implemented by shipyards, ship owners and operators need to be developed in the shortest possible time to reduce emissions from vessels already in service, both seagoing and those operating in inland navigation.

Exploiting renewable energy for shipping, in particular focusing on the potential of wind energy (ZEWT Partnership)

Closed

Code: 16500 | Identifier Code: HORIZON-CL5-2022-D5-01-03 | Programme name: 2939 | Sub-program: Climate, Energy and Mobility (Cluster 5)(2021-2027) | Start submission calls: 02/12/2021 | End submission calls: 26/04/2022

The use of on-board renewable energies, in particular automated wind assistance, has potential to substantially reduce the ship’s energy demands and hence reduce fuel consumption. With wind being a genuinely maritime feature shipping would also avoid costly competition with other transport sectors for sustainable fuels.

Computational tools for shipbuilding

Closed

Code: 16497 | Identifier Code: HORIZON-CL5-2022-D5-01-06 | Programme name: 2939 | Sub-program: Climate, Energy and Mobility (Cluster 5)(2021-2027) | Start submission calls: 02/12/2021 | End submission calls: 26/04/2022

Advanced computational systems are essential to Europe’s competitive advantage in the construction, maintenance, conversion and repair of the world’s most complex, high added value ships. Systems need to feed into competitive production processes as well as support potential changes to a ship design during its entire life-cycle. Νew concepts for a reliable and cost efficient roll-out of advanced platforms and tools are expected to be developed and demonstrated. Furthermore developments should benefit the wider European shipbuilding sector and address the necessary skills development to enable full exploitation of the advanced computation tools.

Modular multi-powertrain zero-emission systems for HDV (BEV and FCEV) for efficient and economic operation (2ZERO)

The call is asking for a modular and flexible powertrain approach for large heavy-duty trucks which can serve varying mission demands (range, power and re-charging/-fuelling requirements) by varying battery/tank sizes to serve different missions and driving profiles within one vehicle platform.

Prevent smog episodes in Europe: Air quality impact of engine-emitted volatile, semi volatile and secondary particles

Closed

Code: 16488 | Identifier Code: HORIZON-CL5-2022-D5-01-07 | Programme name: 2939 | Sub-program: Climate, Energy and Mobility (Cluster 5)(2021-2027) | Start submission calls: 02/12/2021 | End submission calls: 26/04/2022

The impact of transport emissions on air quality and health is relatively well known as far as direct pollutants emission are concerned. However, some of the emissions from engines and combustion processes in general are also leading to further formation of health impacting compounds due to atmospheric aerosol chemistry, and the specific impact of these compounds is less understood (except for ozone, whose chemistry has been widely studied for other reasons). Also, in fields where regulation limits particles emissions (cars, trucks, aircraft, non-road mobile machinery) current engine particles emissions count only assesses the number of solid particles, disregarding the so-called volatile and semi-volatile particles, thus underestimating the impact on air quality and health.

Innovative energy storage systems on-board vessels (ZEWT Partnership)

Closed

Code: 16484 | Identifier Code: HORIZON-CL5-2022-D5-01-02 | Programme name: 2939 | Sub-program: Climate, Energy and Mobility (Cluster 5)(2021-2027) | Start submission calls: 02/12/2021 | End submission calls: 26/04/2022

Battery based electric energy storage systems are increasingly deployed within the waterborne sector, particularly for sea short shipping, complex high-end ships and inland navigation.
Fully battery electric shipping is demanding, requiring very high energy levels to achieve a realistic operational range and the necessary speed and thrust performance, whilst hybrid applications can also be excessively large. Both hybrid and full battery operations are subject to many more charging cycles and longer lifetimes than other transport applications.
