As anticipated in previous MNM pieces (February 2018, October 2017, August 2017), the 15^th May saw a number of energy ‘calls’ relevant to IFRF members under the European Commission (EC) Horizon 2020 Research & Innovation (R&I) Programme (H2020) go ‘live’.

The ‘Enabling near-zero CO₂ emissions from fossil fuel power plants and carbon intensive industries’ (NZE) Calls on  ‘Advanced CO₂ capture technologies’,  ‘Conversion of captured CO₂’, and  ‘Strategic planning for carbon capture, utilisation and storage (CCUS) development’ are all now open.  For more information on these Calls (and others anticipated to go live in 2019 and 2020)

Particular information on these three Calls can be found at:

• Conversion of captured CO₂ (CE-SC3-NZE-1-2018)
• Strategic planning for carbon capture, utilisation and storage (CCUS) development (LC-SC3-NZE-3-2018)

MNM readers should note that the deadline for submission of proposals is 6^th September.

If IFRF members wish to liaise with IFRF on establishing proposals, or wish to use IFRF to broker any partnerships, please contact Philip Sharman (philip.sharman@ifrf.net).
