Guide to the application
Who can apply?
Companies, research institutions, universities and university colleges can apply to the CLIMIT programme for project support for development of CCS technology. The applications must fall under the topics listed in CLIMIT’s strategy and CLIMIT’s work programme.
What types of projects are eligible for funding?
Feasibility study:
Refers to the evaluation and analysis of the potential of a project, aimed at supporting the decision-making process by objectively and rationally identifying its strengths and weaknesses, opportunities and threats, as well as determining the resources required for its implementation and, ultimately, its prospects for success.
Demonstration:
Refers to acquiring, combining, shaping, and using existing scientific, technological, business, and other relevant knowledge and skills with the aim of developing new or improved products, processes, or services. This may also include activities aimed at the conceptual definition, planning, and documentation of new products, processes, or services. Experimental development may include prototyping, demonstration, piloting, testing, and validation of new or improved products, processes, or services in environments representative of real operating conditions, where the primary objective is to make further technical improvements to products, processes, or services that are not yet fully established. This may include the development of a commercially viable prototype or pilot that is necessarily the final commercial product, and which is too costly to produce for use solely for demonstration and validation purposes. Experimental development does not include routine or periodic modifications made to existing products, production lines, manufacturing processes, services, and other ongoing operations, even if such changes may represent improvements.
Development:
Refers to planned research or critical investigation aimed at acquiring new knowledge and skills for developing new products, processes, or services, or for achieving significant improvements in existing products, processes, or services. It includes the creation of components of complex systems and may involve the construction of prototypes in a laboratory environment or in an environment with simulated interfaces to existing systems, as well as pilot lines, where necessary for industrial research and, in particular, for the validation of generic technology.
Application deadline
CLIMIT Demo has no application deadlines, and applications are processed continuously.
Criteria for application
The assessment of applications to CLIMIT-Demo is based on the guidelines and priorities set out in the current program plan, which forms the basis for the technical evaluation of all submitted applications.
The application process
Applications to CLIMIT-Demo are assessed by subject-matter experts in the CLIMIT Secretariat. The Secretariat prepares a technical recommendation based on the programme plan, eligibility criteria, and other applicable guidelines.
Final decision-making authority for grant awards lies with the Board of Gassnova. The Board has delegated authority to the Chief Executive Officer and, further, to the Head of the CLIMIT Secretariat within defined financial limits. Applicants will receive a decision from the appropriate level of delegated authority, depending on the requested support amount.
The project execution phase
Gassnova requires on-demand access to information about the project’s progress and reserves the right to a seat in the project’s steering committee.
Project conclusion
A final project report with documentation of results and agreed publication of the project results shall be forwarded to Gassnova. Approval of the final documentation triggers balance of funding payment from Gassnova to the project.
