The smart tool for EU proposal drafters and grant writers CallforEurope is a consultancy that provides for professional information and assistance on European Policies, Programmes and Public Calls. Our mission is to support transparent knowledge and easy access to all of the opportunities offered by EU Programmes. We think that giving fresh information on such themes is a valid lever for boosting European Union integration.

Our support is intended to: • offer technical information on how to access to and manage EU grants and projects; • make people find new transnational partnerships throughout Europe; • stimulate public debate on how to access to EU funds. Our ambition is to serve as a technical resource center. We want to serve primarily those that usually work on writing applications and

managing projects through European funding. Call them “Euro-drafters” or “Euro-experts”: in any case, their activity demands high specialization and a constant updating on European policies, programs and public calls. Our service is intended for them but also for any private, public and not-for-profit organization interested to European programmes and funds.

If you want more information on our services, please drop a line at call4europe@gmail.com visit us at https://call-for-europe.org subscribe to our newsletter at https://www.call-for-europe.org/newsletter

Development and validation of pressurised high temperature steam electrolysis stacks (Solid Oxide Electrolysis)

call synopsis Programme

Horizon Europe

Administration

European Commission

Objective

Hydrogen is stored, transported or used pressurised with variable pressures depending on user cases (e.g. between 7 and 70 bar for various industrial applications and grid injection, up to 200 bar for filling gas cylinders, as well as up to 350 and 700 bar in refuelling stations). Hydrogen compression requires energy, which negatively affects overall process efficiency and hydrogen molecule final cost. Pressurised electrolysis therefore has the potential to provide an efficient solution for delivery of pressurised hydrogen at reduced cost. It also enables a low emissions form of hydrogen production, including down to zero emissions if powered solely by renewables. It is expected that this topic will provide breakthrough and game changing technologies for energy efficient pressurised hydrogen production using solid oxide electrolysers (SOEL) and contributing to the overall objective of the SRIA of the Clean Hydrogen JU, namely the hydrogen production cost of 3 €/kg by 2030.

Eligible Activities

Proposals for this topic should set out a credible pathway to contribute to the development and validation of pressurised SOEL with technological breakthroughs aiming at designing and operating a stack at an optimal pressure with eventual assistance of a downstream compression process to reach higher delivery pressure. Electrochemical compression in the stack can also be considered. To tackle these challenges, the proposals should focus on system and stack design, as well as fabrication, assembly and testing of stack in the conditions suitable for the relevant business cases.

Eligible Applicants

Any legal entity, regardless of its place of establishment, including legal entities from nonassociated third countries or international organisations

Scaling-up technologies for SOEL

call synopsis Horizon Europe

Administration

European Commission

Objective

High Temperature Steam Electrolysis (HTSE) technology using Solid Oxide Electrolysis Cells (SOEL), thanks to its high efficiency, has the potential to become a game changer technology for the massive production of hydrogen at low cost. However, its maturity remains one step behind alkaline and Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) water electrolysis. Currently, the largest demonstration unit installed has a power of 720 kW (GrinHy 2.0 project), while there is a plan to install and operate in the frame of MULTIPLHY[1] project a unit of 2.4 MW by the end of 2022. In contrast, units of MWs or tens of MW are already installed or planned to operate shortly for the two other electrolysis technologies. In addition, the unit size of SOEL cells, stacks, and modules remains small, as compared to other electrolysis technologies, which might not be optimal from both a technical and economical point of view in order to address a massive hydrogen production market with multi-MW units.

Eligible Activities

The proposal should focus on the scalability of cells, stacks and modules, namely in terms of design, cells and stack manufacture and their assembly into modules as well as on operation in environment suitable for the selected applications and business cases as follows: Identify the optimal sizes for larger cells and stacks from both techno-economical and practical point of view. Pinpoint any technical limits that may restrict the achievable size and the extent of cost reductions when innovating larger cells and stacks; Identify the optimal stack assembly layout into modules of > 250 kW capacity, as well as the assembly of such modules into multi-MW units; Based on this work, perform a thorough techno-economic analysis considering economies of scale and scalability of manufacturing processes to show that project developments allow reaching the CAPEX and OPEX KPI targets included above in order to pave the way to reach a Levelised Cost of Hydrogen (LCOH) of 3 €/kg, or under, by 2030;

Objective

Proposal results are expected to contribute to at least one of the following expected outcomes: Truly mixed human-AI initiatives for human empowerment Trustworthy hybrid decision-support systems

Eligible Activities

Build the next level of perception, visualisation, interaction and collaboration between humans and AI systems working together as partners to achieve common goals, sharing mutual understanding and learning of each other’s abilities and respective roles. Innovative and promising approaches are encouraged, including human-in the loop approaches for truly mixed human-AI initiatives combining the best of human and machine knowledge and capabilities, tacit knowledge extraction (to design the next generation AI-driven co-creation and collaboration tools embodied e.g. in industrial/ working spaces environments). Each proposal will focus on one of the two following research objectives, and clearly identify it: Reach truly mixed human-AI initiatives for human empowerment. The approaches should combine the best of human and machine knowledge and capabilities including shared and sliding autonomy in interaction, addressing reactivity, and fluidity of interaction and making systems transparent, fair and intuitive to use, which will play a key role in acceptance. The systems should adapt to the user rather than the opposite, based on analysis, understanding and anticipation about human behaviour and expectations. Trustworthy hybrid decision-support, including approaches for mixed and sliding decisionmaking, for context interpretation, for dealing with uncertainty, transparent anticipation, reliability, human-centric planning and decision-making, interdependencies, and augmented decision-making. Transparency, fairness, technical accuracy and robustness will be the key, together with validation strategies assessing also the quality of the decision of the AI supported socio-technical system.

European Network of AI Excellence Centres: Expanding the European AI lighthouse (RIA)

call synopsis Horizon Europe

Administration

European Commission

Objective

Proposals results are expected to contribute to all the following expected outcomes: Scientific progress in AI, addressing major challenges hampering its deployment. Establishing a new pillars of the European AI lighthouse Reinforcing the leading unified European AI community

Eligible Activities

Europe has to scale up existing research capacities and reach a critical mass through tighter networks of European AI excellence centres. The proposals should develop mechanisms to reinforce and network excellence centres in AI, bringing the best scientists from academia and industry to join forces in addressing the major AI challenges hampering its deployment, and to reinforce excellence in AI throughout Europe via a tight network of collaboration. Such networks are expected to mobilise researchers to collaborate on key AI topics and to increase the impact of the funding in progressing faster in joined efforts rather than working in isolation, with fragmented and duplicated efforts. Such networks, together with other mechanisms, will play an important role in reaching critical mass and in overcoming the present fragmentation of AI research in Europe. Proposals will mobilise the best European teams in AI community to join forces to address major technical as well as sector- or societal-driven challenges: strengthening excellence, networking, multidisciplinarity, academia-industry synergies. Activities of the Networks: In order to structure the activities, the proposals will focus on important scientific or technological challenges with industrial and societal relevance where Europe will make a difference, by building on strengths, or strengthening knowledge to fill gaps critical for Europe. Based on the identified challenges, the proposals will develop and implement common research agendas. The main vision and roadmap with targets within the projects, as well as methodology to implement and monitor progress will have to be specified in the proposal and can be further developed during the project. Scientific progress will have to be demonstrated through testing on application specific datasets or use-cases. By extending the benchmarking of foundational research to application specific areas, the research community will simultaneously address advancements in AI and grand societal and technological challenges. The proposals should define mechanisms to foster excellence throughout Europe, to increase efficiency of collaboration, including through networking and exchange programmes, and to develop a vibrant AI network in Europe. Each network will disseminate the latest and most advanced knowledge to all the academic and industrial AI laboratories in Europe and involving them in collaborative projects/exchange programmes. (This could involve projects defined initially or via financial support to third parties, for maximum 20% of the requested EU contribution, with a maximum of 60k€ per third party[2]). Each network will develop, where relevant, interactions with the industry, in view of triggering new scientific questions and fostering take-up of scientific advances Each network will develop collaboration with the relevant Digital innovation Hubs and AI start-up initiatives, to disseminate knowledge and tools, and understand their needs. These networks should also foster innovation and include mechanisms to exploit new ideas coming out of the network’s work (for instance via incubators). Overall, each proposal will define mechanisms to become a virtual centre of excellence, offering access to knowledge and serve as a reference in their chosen specific field, including activities to ensure visibility.
