Innovation on floating wind energy deployment optimized for deep waters and different sea basins (Mediterranean Sea, Black Sea, Baltic Sea, North-east Atlantic Ocean)

This program supports entities engaged in advancing floating offshore wind energy across various European sea basins, aiming to foster technological leadership and contribute to climate neutrality. It seeks a multi-disciplinary and multi-stakeholder approach to ensure broad perspectives and societal impact.

This EU funding focuses on innovative projects in floating offshore wind energy, covering the development, demonstration, and market uptake of advanced technologies, with an emphasis on cost reduction and environmental sustainability.

This Horizon Europe program provides grant funding with a substantial budget allocated to drive innovation and deployment in floating wind energy technologies.

Applicants must adhere to general Horizon Europe conditions and specific requirements related to project phases, consortium structures, and environmental considerations, ensuring transparency and societal integration.

The application process involved a single-stage submission to the European Commission's Funding & Tenders Portal, followed by evaluation and notification of results.

The funding program is established and governed by comprehensive European Union regulations and work programmes under the Horizon Europe framework.
