Horizon Europe is the EU’s biggest research and innovation programme to date, with a budget of €95.5bn for 2021-2027. It will be a key funding source for ocean energy.
A €40m call for the demonstration of sustainable tidal energy farms – 2 projects of €20m each – opens on the 13th of December.
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.
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 last year has seen important progress in some of our key markets in Europe. This panel discussion brings together those who are working with governments to create national markets & funding opportunities for wave & tidal across Europe.
The UK government has announced a financial scheme that guarantees funding for successful UK applicants to the first Horizon Europe calls regardless of the outcome of the UK’s association to Horizon Europe.
The Connecting Europe Facility funds interconnectors and renewable energy projects with cross-border elements. The program can finance studies and/or works. It has an annual budget of €100m for renewable energy.
The first Interreg North-West Europe (NWE) call for projects in the 2021-2027 period is now open.
