What is the EU Innovation Fund?

The EU Innovation Fund is one of the world's largest funding programmes for innovative low-carbon technologies. Financed by revenues from the EU Emissions Trading System, it supports the deployment of clean technologies across energy-intensive industries, renewable energy, energy storage, and carbon capture.

Projects are selected through competitive calls. Large-scale projects receive grants of over €7.5 million; small-scale projects receive up to €7.5 million. Once selected, projects progress through grant agreement preparation and then into implementation.

This directory covers 413 projects sourced directly from the European Commission's public project listing, refreshed monthly.

📋 Track EU sustainability regulation continuously

Verdandi monitors EU sustainability regulation and delivers personalised alerts anchored to verified official sources.
