Clean Aviation to launch its third Call for Proposals in February 2025

Clean Aviation is pleased to announce its third Call for Proposals expected in February 2005, totalling up to €380(1) million in EU funding to support disruptive projects aimed at decarbonising aviation.

 

The third Call for Proposals is centred around the following areas :

  • Aircraft Concept Integration & Impact Assessment (ACI&I): €15 million
  • Ultra-efficient Short-Medium Range (SMR) aircraft architectures: €205 million
  • Ultra-efficient Regional (REG) aircraft architectures: €145 million

New Initiative

Clean Aviation is also introducing a new initiative to play a crucial role in advancing disruptive technologies: the Fast Track Areas (FTAs) for a total funding volume of €15 million. These are designed to de-risk alternative or complementary technical solutions, enabling a faster implementation process and enlarging the breadth of competencies. Priority will be given to projects that can rapidly advance impactful technologies to the development phase and are closely connected to the SMR and REG projects, encouraging the participation of universities, research centres, and SMEs. The focus will be on solutions that address the most pressing challenges in decarbonising the aviation sector.
