Una Europa is teaming up with Unite! – the University Network for Innovation, Technology and Engineering – to connect researchers with common interests together to facilitate collaboration on sustainable energy-related Horizon Europe topics.

Join us for an online pre-matchmaking session on 19 January 2023, followed by an in-person meeting in Brussels on 30 and 31 January 2023 at the Helsinki EU Office.

About the event:

Researchers with an interest in the following Horizon Europe topics from Work Programme Climate, Energy and Mobility are invited to participate:

• Advanced sustainable and safe pre-processing technologies for End-of-Life (EoL) battery recycling;
• Development of technical and business solutions to optimise the circularity, resilience, and sustainability of the European battery value chain;
• Emerging energy technologies for a climate-neutral Europe;
• Post-Li-ion technologies and relevant manufacturing techniques for mobility applications;
• Development of near-zero-emission biomass heat and/or CHP including carbon capture;
• Innovative components and configurations for heat pumps;
• Development of next-generation advanced biofuel technologies;
• Improvement of light harvesting and carbon fixation with synthetic biology and/or bio-inspired//biomimetic pathways for renewable direct solar fuels production;
• Innovative applications/integration of geothermal heating and cooling in industry;
• Development of smart concepts of integrated energy-driven bio-refineries for co-production of advanced biofuels, bio-chemicals and biomaterials;
• Design for adaptability, re-use and deconstruction of buildings, in line with the principles of circular economy.

Virtual meeting, 19 January (10:00 - 12.30 CET): This meeting will give you an overview of the topic you will be working on and an opportunity to engage with other participants with similar research interests to you.

In-person workshop, 30 & 31 January 2023 (midday to midday CET): This workshop will provide you with tips and tricks on how to tackle a Horizon Europe project proposal and an opportunity for a first get-together with your potential project partner.

Unfortunately, we cannot offer financial support to attend the workshop in Brussels.

Registration deadline: 18 December 2022
