Κωδικός Προγράμματος: 1957

Πρόγραμμα Πλαίσιο: CIP

 

Through the Eco-innovation funding scheme, the EU wants to support innovative products, services and technologies that can make a better use of our natural resources and reduce Europe’s ecological footprint. With its objective to bridge the gap between research and the market, CIP Eco-innovation contributes to the implementation of the Environmental Technologies Action Plan. Clusters of applicants and projects which demonstrate a European added value and have a high potential for market replication are strongly encouraged. The projects have to:

 

1. Have an innovative character and substantial positive impacts on the environment

2. Provide significant replication, wider application and broader marketability

3. Be relevant for and show clear substantial benefits in support of Europe’s environmental policy objectives

4. Demonstrate a European added value and an international project dimension

5. Be well thought-through from a technical and project management perspective

6. Be cost-effective delivering higher quality through appropriate effort levels. CIP Eco-Innovation will support projects: Concerned with the first application or market replication of eco-innovative techniques, products, process or practices, which have already been technically demonstrated, but due to remaining risks need incentives to penetrate significantly the market.

 

CIP Eco-Innovation will also support market oriented activities related to the uptake of environmental technologies and eco-innovative activities by enterprises and the implementation of new or integrated approaches to Eco-Innvoation. The maximum duration of an action is 36 months.
