The second Interreg North-West Europe (NWE) call for projects in the 2021-2027 period is now open until Thursday 9 February 2023.
Over the lifetime of the Programme (2021-2027), €287m will be allocated to projects. There is no ceiling for the budget that can be used for this second call.
This document lists the main calls relevant for ocean energy in the European Commission’s Horizon Europe Work Programme for 2023-2024. It dedicates €94m to ocean energy – a result of OEE’s active engagement with EU and national policymakers, as well as the strong support from OEE members who helped influence the national Horizon Europe representatives. The document also includes general calls that can be suitable for ocean energy projects.
Horizon Europe has 5 ‘missions’ that will channel funding towards specific objectives. One of the Missions, Restore our Ocean and Waters by 2030, offers opportunities for ocean energy.
The Work Programme 2023-2024 includes a call for ‘Innovative nature-inclusive concepts to reconcile offshore renewables with ocean protection’.
The Clean Energy Transition Partnership (CETP) is a new framework for ERA-NETs that allow for Member States and the European Commission to put up joint calls.
The CETP covers power production technologies, heating & cooling, storage and energy efficiency, divided into pillars, ‘Transition Initiatives’ (TRIs). Ocean energy is part of TRI2: Enhanced zero emission power technologies.
Demo projects for highly innovative technologies that can bring on significant emission reductions. Only projects with a total capital expenditure between €2.5m and €7.5m are eligible.
The €100m budget will be shared between innovative renewables, CCS, storage and heavy industries (steel, cement, chemicals, bricks…).

The Basque Energy Agency is running a competition to replace the existing turbines at the Mutriku Power Plant.
TurboWave has a budget of €3.2m and offers 100% funding for the winners of each phase – similar the EuropeWave programme.
The call supports the development and uptake of multi-use between marine renewable energies and other blue economy activities and/or with nature protection.
The EU-UK Agreement explicitly allows UK players to take part in the majority of Horizon Europe, with the same rights as EU players.
