Opis

Expected Outcome:

Project results are expected to contribute to all of the following expected outcomes:

• Based on the results of the project, at least one industrial sector with a significant heating demand in the EU and Associated Countries develops pathways and business models to measurably increase the industrial excess/waste heat recovery and conversion to power, thereby reducing their energy costs.

• Measurable improvement of industrial excess/waste heat recovery and conversion to power, possibly combined with energy storage, in terms of energy efficiency, flexibility of electricity production, climate and environment protection, reliability and safety, physical and cyber security, and profitability.

Scope:

Better use of process excess/waste heat represents a significant source of energy savings for industries. The conversion of excess heat back to electricity, would improve energy efficiency, mitigate the increase of electricity consumption and cost due to industrial electrification, as well as offer flexible electricity generation to stabilise the grid, if combined with thermal and/or electrical energy storage.

Projects must address all the following items:

• Develop and validate novel excess/waste heat recovery and conversion systems.

• Demonstrate physically within one or more operational industrial site(s), the recovery of industrial excess/waste heat, possibly combined with energy storage, and its conversion to mechanical or electrical power.

• Maximise the replicability and deployment of the concept/solution in the EU and Associated Countries’ plants in the same industrial sector. Already before starting the design phase, the needs of most EU and Associated Countries’ factories in the same industrial sector(s) should be surveyed and analysed in order to design a solution that can be adapted to meet most of them.

• Identify common components, optimise and define a standardised and cost-competitive version of them.

• Develop open technical and economical guidelines and open tools for integrating such systems into SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) and EMS (Energy Management System) infrastructures of existing plants, and for developing innovative business model of heat valorisation as a flexible electricity generation offered to stabilise the power grid.

• Disseminate results notably (but not only) to the relevant communities in cluster 4 ‘Digital, Industry and Space’ private-public partnerships.

Technology Readiness Level - Technology readiness level expected from completed projects

Activities are expected to achieve TRL 7-8 by the end of the project – see General Annex B. Activities may start at any TRL.

Konsorcjum wymaganeBeneficiaries; affiliated entities do not count toward minimum
Tak

Unless the topic provides otherwise, at least three independent legal-entity beneficiaries from three different countries: one from a Member State and two others each from different Member States or Associated Countries.

Inny warunek
The Work Programme classifies this exact topic as an Innovation Action.
Inny warunek
General Annex B excludes legal entities established in China from Innovation Actions. The specific Work Programme condition additionally excludes entities established in an eligible country but directly or indirectly controlled by China or by a legal entity established in China only where that topic states the critical-technology restriction.
Inny warunek
Horizon Europe projects must focus exclusively on civil applications.
Inny warunek
If the project uses satellite-based Earth-observation, positioning, navigation and/or related timing data or services, beneficiaries must use Copernicus and/or Galileo/EGNOS; other data and services may also be used.
Inny warunek
Where a Type 2 detailed budget is required, estimates may include subcontracting, purchases, and other cost categories per beneficiary/affiliated entity and work package. Subcontracting must cover action tasks and meet the MGA eligibility and best-value/no-conflict conditions; purchases follow the beneficiary’s usual purchasing practices and best value for money or lowest price, with no conflict of interest. These are estimated-cost rules, not separate LS reimbursement promises.
Inny warunek
Expected outcomes include EU/Associated-Country industrial sectors with significant heating demand developing pathways/business models to expand industrial waste-heat recovery and power conversion and reduce energy costs; and improved recovery/conversion solutions (possibly with storage) on efficiency, flexibility, climate/environment, reliability, safety, security, and profitability.
Inny warunek
The call overview indicates around 2 project(s) expected to be funded under this topic. This is a planning estimate, not a guaranteed award count or consortium-size rule.
Inny warunek
The specific topic conditions state that eligible costs take the form of a lump sum under the Horizon Europe lump-sum decision. This is not direct reimbursement of each actual payroll or invoice.
Inny warunek
The call Work Programme specifies lump-sum funding but does not identify its subtype. For project-based Type 2 lump sums, the Commission’s guidance calls for realistic estimates by cost category, beneficiary/affiliated entity, and work package, using costs eligible under the programme’s actual-cost rules, in line with normal practices, reasonable and necessary for the activities. Confirm the subtype in the call’s submission system before treating that Type 2 estimate table as call-specific.
Inny warunek
Public universities (higher education establishments) established in China and administered by or under the supervision of China’s Ministry of Industry and Information Technology are ineligible to participate in any action under all parts of this Work Programme.
Inny warunek
The granting authority may, for up to four years after the action ends, object to a transfer of ownership or exclusive licensing of results under the specific Annex 5 provision.
Inny warunek
Maximise replicability across EU and Associated Countries plants in the same industrial sector; survey and analyse the needs of most such factories before design; identify common components and define a standardised, cost-competitive version.
Inny warunek
Develop and validate novel industrial excess/waste-heat recovery and conversion systems; physically demonstrate them at one or more operational industrial sites, with recovery potentially combined with energy storage and conversion to mechanical or electrical power.
Inny warunek
Develop open technical/economic guidelines and tools for integrating systems into plant SCADA and EMS, supporting business models for flexible electricity generation and grid stabilisation; disseminate to relevant Cluster 4 private-public partnerships.
Inny warunek
The Work Programme expects activity to reach TRL 7–8 by project end. This is an expected range, not a guarantee or a separately imposed funding entitlement.
Inny warunek
The Work Programme allows the responsible Director-General to open the call up to one month before or after its planned opening and to delay its deadline by up to two months. These are call-programme flexibilities, not a claim that a change occurred.
Inny warunek
The Work Programme schedules this call to open 2027-05-05 and sets the deadline as 2027-09-15 at 17:00 Brussels local time.
Poziom gotowości technologicznej na koniec projektu, maksimum
TRL 8

Both endpoints are an expected end-of-project target range, not separate eligibility floors or ceilings. The Work Programme says activities may start at any TRL.

Poziom gotowości technologicznej na koniec projektu, minimum
TRL 7

Both endpoints are an expected end-of-project target range, not separate eligibility floors or ceilings. The Work Programme says activities may start at any TRL.

Kwoty i koszty5
Limit kosztów kwalifikowalnychEligible direct costs in MGA categories A–D, with stated exclusions
25 percent of eligible direct costs

The HE MGA flat-rate calculation excludes volunteer costs, subcontracting, financial support to third parties, and exempted specific cost categories. For these topics the grant is a lump sum; this is an underlying estimate/eligibility rule, not a separately reimbursed 25% payment. Operating-grant restrictions may also make indirect costs ineligible under the lump-sum guide.

Intensywność wsparcia, maksimumNon-profit legal entity beneficiaries only
100 percent of eligible costs per beneficiary

General Annex G permits a rate up to 100% for non-profit Innovation Action beneficiaries. The rate is not an award guarantee and for lump sums is applied through the amount-setting methodology.

Intensywność wsparcia, maksimumBeneficiary category under this action type
70 percent of eligible costs per beneficiary

General Annex G maximum for this Horizon Europe action type; not an award guarantee. For lump-sum grants, the rate is applied through the amount-setting methodology rather than shown separately in the grant agreement.

Oczekiwany wkład na projektCommission estimated EU contribution for this topic
6 750 000 €

The overview identifies this as an amount around which outcomes could be addressed; different proposal amounts are not precluded. This is not a fixed minimum, maximum, or award guarantee.

Budżet tematuTopic-specific indicative allocation in the 2027 Work Programme call table
13 500 000 €

The Work Programme labels the amount indicative; call footnote says the budget is subject to Union budget appropriations. It is a topic allocation, not a per-beneficiary grant amount.

    Koszt personelu, który można pokryć z dofinansowania

    These are cost-category estimate inputs only if this call uses a project-based Type 2 lump-sum detailed budget. The Work Programme only identifies lump-sum funding and does not identify the lump-sum subtype. A role row does not advertise a vacancy, fix a headcount, salary, or hiring entitlement; the lump sum is paid for action implementation, not separately as actual payroll. MGA A.2/A.3 requires assignment to the action, employee-like working conditions, and (unless agreed otherwise) the result belonging to the beneficiary; the calculated rate must correspond to actual costs and not be significantly different from similar employee tasks.
