Open for submission

Improved system design for innovative PV applications (EUPI-PV Partnership)

In short

This is an Innovation Action under Horizon Europe. The budget is €30 million for about 4 grants of €7.5 million each. It is paid as a lump sum, so you report results instead of costs. Deadline: 1 December 2026.

What the call wants to achieve

  • Harvesting of crops and photovoltaic electricity, providing sustainable solutions for energy production/use/efficiency, soil and biodiversity protection and water conservation.
  • Reinforce the European PV value chain, introduce new business models and open new markets for novel, bankable agri or offshore/nearshore PV systems.
  • Minimise the impact of PV on landscape/sea and environment exploiting its modularity and synergies of use. Promote offshore wind and PV co-location and system integration.
  • Significant improvement of designs that reduce both CAPEX and OPEX, maximize energy output and thus reduce LCoE.
