In the EU, polluters have to pay for their greenhouse gas emissions via the EU Emissions Trading System (ETS). The money raised via this system is reinvested into the Innovation Fund: one of the world’s largest funding programmes for innovative low-carbon technologies.
What kind of projects does the Innovation Fund support? Check out the table below to learn more.
In the Technology pathways column, you can find the different technologies projects are using to reduce greenhouses gas emissions. For projects that are already being implemented, you can find quantitative information on the dashboards.
In the Project stories column, you can find dedicated stories to illustrate how projects are supporting people and businesses across the EU. More project stories will be available soon.
