Call for proposals 2025 - Big Tickets for Steel (RFCS-2025-CSP)
Open Call
Objectives
The Big Tickets calls are dedicated calls for proposals under the RFCS programme. Specifically, they implement part of the Research Programme, namely research on innovative technologies for the reduction of CO2 emissions in the steel industrial sector.
The RFCS programme is framed around the European Commission’s policy objectives, with the European Green Deal (EGD) as the cornerstone. The Commission’s EGD Communication is a growth strategy that aims to transform the EU into an equal-opportunity and prosperous society, with a modern, resource-efficient and competitive economy where there are no net emissions of greenhouse gases in 2050 and in which economic growth is decoupled from resource use. The climate neutrality objective is at the heart of the EGD and is a legally binding objective set out in the European Climate Law. The EGD Communication also states that all EU actions and policies should work towards the goal of enabling the EU to achieve a successful and just transition towards a sustainable future.
The RFCS legislation is in line with the EGD’s objectives; it enables the Fund to tackle the sectors’ climate and environmental challenges and to assist the steel industry in reducing emissions.
