ExpectedOutcome:

Efficient delivery of the quantified objectives by end of the project

Objective:

Projects under the Climate Change Mitigation Priority Area should contribute to the socially just and sustainable transition towards a climate neutral economy by 2050 and to reaching the EU emission reduction target for 2030 to at least 55% compared with 1990 levels.

Scope:

Areas of intervention:

• Recovery, recycle and reclamation of ozone-depleting substances in foams and suitability of alternatives to fluorinated greenhouse gases and their recovery, reclamation and recycling;
• Actions to support the shift to zero-emission mobility in road transport;
• Decarbonising non-road transport modes, fostering intermodality and modal shift;
• Increase the generation and use of renewable energy and improvement of energy efficiency (as far as not covered by specific calls for proposals under the Clean Energy Transition sub-programme);
• Actions which reduce energy use and greenhouse gas emissions in industrial production and waste management;
• Development and implementation of land and coastal management practices which have an impact on emissions and carbon removals, including the conservation and enhancement of natural carbon sinks in soils and forests and the storage of carbon in long-lasting products.
• Development and implementation of industrial solutions for carbon removal, carbon capture and use and/or storage.
