Clean Aviation's Call 4 for Proposals is scheduled to open on 17 February 2026, offering up to €329.5 million in EU funding, with an estimated total research effort of € 824 million, including in-kind contributions from participating entities. This major funding opportunity supports disruptive projects aimed at decarbonising aviation while fostering EU competitiveness and industrial leadership, addressing the urgent need to develop breakthrough technologies that enable climate-neutral aviation by 2050 without compromising Europe's strategic position in global aerospace markets. Clean Aviation ...

On 16 December 2025, the European Commission presented the Automotive Package to support the sector's efforts in the transition to clean mobility. This comprehensive policy framework sets ambitious yet pragmatic rules to ensure climate neutrality by 2050 and strategic independence whilst providing more flexibility to manufacturers. The package responds directly to calls from EU industry to simplify rules and reduce administrative burden, building on the Clean Industrial Deal, the Competitiveness Compass, and the Industrial Automotive Action Plan developed through an inclusive Strategic ...

The European Commission recently presented a comprehensive fact-finding study assessing the current state of the European hyperloop sector and exploring possible avenues for EU support. Hyperloop has the potential to dramatically reduce travel times across the continent, delivering ultra-high-speed, low-emission passenger and freight mobility whilst contributing to decarbonisation, digitalisation, regional cohesion, and industrial renewal, all of which make it strategically relevant for the EU's long-term transport agenda. Hyperloop technology, explicitly mentioned in the EU's Sustainable and ...

The European Commission selected 70 projects to receive over €600 million in funding from the Connecting Europe Facility to deploy alternative fuels infrastructure across Europe's trans-European transport network. This substantial investment, representing the second cut-off of the 2024-2025 Alternative Fuels Infrastructure Facility (AFIF) call, will accelerate the deployment of electric recharging stations, hydrogen refuelling stations, and maritime bunkering facilities across 24 EU Member States. The projects support the objectives of the Alternative Fuels Infrastructure Regulation, ReFuelEU ...

On 5 November 2025, the European Commission adopted the communication launching the Sustainable Transport Investment Plan (STIP), a strategic roadmap designed to accelerate the energy transition of the aviation and waterborne transport sectors. The Plan is a key pillar of the EU’s broader competitiveness and clean-industry agenda (notably the EU Competitiveness Compass and the Clean Industrial Deal) and aims to deliver a common investment framework for renewable and low-carbon fuels in the transport sector. Transport sectors such as aviation and shipping face substantial decarbonisation ...

The European Commission recently adopted its first progress report on the European Declaration on Cycling, demonstrating strong momentum across the EU to boost cycling infrastructure and policies. The report, representing the first stocktake of progress since the Declaration's adoption in 2024, confirms cycling's essential role as a clean, affordable, and health-boosting mode of transport whilst highlighting the potential of cycling to tackle transport poverty by offering low-cost mobility options accessible to all Europeans. The European Declaration on Cycling represents a landmark commitment ...

On 5 November 2025, the European Commission unveiled a comprehensive plan to accelerate the development of high-speed rail across the EU, offering passengers significantly reduced travel times whilst supporting the EU's twin goals of achieving carbon neutrality by 2050 and strengthening Europe's global competitiveness. Building on the Trans-European Transport Network (TEN-T), the plan sets the ambitious target of cutting the duration of many popular rail journeys across Europe by half compared to today, transforming high-speed rail into the backbone of sustainable, competitive, and secure ...

Europe's Rail Joint Undertaking has launched its Call for Proposals 2025-02, offering €148.2 million in EU funding for projects with a total expected value of €245 million. The call represents a major step forward in advancing rail research and innovation, supporting the implementation of the Europe's Rail Amended Work Programme 2025-2026. This significant investment aligns with the European Green Deal and the Sustainable and Smart Mobility Strategy, demonstrating the EU's continued commitment to making rail the backbone of sustainable European transport. As Europe accelerates its transition ...

The European Climate, Infrastructure and Environment Executive Agency (CINEA) has launched a major Horizon Europe call for proposals offering €188 million in EU funding for clean mobility research projects. With a submission deadline of 20 January 2026, this call represents a significant investment in advancing Europe's transport sector transformation towards climate neutrality by 2050. This funding opportunity aligns with the European Commission's strategic priorities under the European Green Deal, the Net-Zero Industry Act, and the Clean Industrial Deal. The call covers three Destinations ...

The Driving Urban Transitions (DUT) Partnership has launched its fourth call for proposals in 2025, inviting researchers, companies, urban authorities, and civil society organisations from 25 countries to collaborate on transformative research and innovation projects that accelerate urban transitions towards climate neutrality and resilience. This transnational initiative, co-funded by the European Commission under the Horizon Europe framework programme, aligns with the EU's commitment to support cities in achieving climate-neutral and smart cities by 2030 through the EU Mission on Climate ...
