The Energy and Water Agency is once again running its Research and Innovation in Energy and Water Grant Scheme. This will be the third call and the aim still remains, to address National Policies and address sectoral problems. This year, the scheme will be taking projects in specific focus areas.

The call is open for applications.The scheme has undergone some structural changes. The scheme is also looking to produce more tangible results by changing the TRL level requirement by requiring any project that will benefit of the scheme to reach TRL level 7 and also produce a prototype or model in a suitable environment. This change in structure was erected as it will help demonstrate better what R&I is capable of and why R&I is a necessary tool to achieve sustainability. Another notable change is that the budget of the scheme has increased from €120,000 to €200,000.  Applicants this year must also apply as a consortium.

The call for applications is now closed.

Applications and any queries are to be sent to the email : rni-energywateragency@gov.mt.
