This Call falls under Innovation’s Targeted Projects Programme. This Programme has recently been initiated to address a) gaps in our innovation portfolio with regards to the business plan, strategic agenda, and b) external changes and influences such as technological developments, policies/regulations, and (urgent) events. This Call involves four separate topics. Each of them will be a standalone project and as such each topic should be applied to separately. Topic 1- The uptake of hydrogen refuelling stations for sustainable urban transport: This topic covers easy-to-deploy and/or hydrogen refuelling solutions that comply with a majority of EU countries’ safety regulation requirements and go beyond the current status of art for such stations. Topic 2 – Mitigating non-exhaust pollution stemming from urban transport: This topic covers solutions for the reduction of non-exhaust emissions (NEE) at source, NEE filtration near the source, NEE removal from the environment, and advanced non-exhaust particulate matter (PM) emissions monitoring. Topic 3 - Achieving Vision Zero and safety for vulnerable urban road user: This topic covers Intelligent transport systems solutions that reduce the number of fatalities and severe injuries on urban roads by preventing collisions, with a primary focus on vulnerable road users. Topic 4- Promoting a competitive and sustainable European cycling industry: This topic covers solutions related to e-bike compliance with the new EU battery regulations, new business models and services for the cycling industry, and (e-)bike manufacturing innovations that promote onshoring and sustainable manufacturing.
