New funding of Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) Projects Awaited for 3 April 2013 (European Commission)

The European Commission services, DG Climate Action, announced on 4 March 2013 that it will launch a second call for proposals under the so-called NER300 programme on 3 April 2013, with a deadline for application on 3 July (approximately).

NER300 aims to provide financial support to commercial demonstration CCS projects as well as demonstration projects of innovative renewable technologies.

Under the first bidding round, no successful offer had been selected by lack of compliance with the selection criteria.

This news will be updated shortly.
