Programmes

This online event brings together experts to discuss research and innovation challenges and future priorities in the areas of clean energy and mobility.

In the span of five years, since the adoption of the European Green Deal in late 2019, EU climate policy has undergone a major shift. The target is clear – climate neutrality by 2050. The steps needed to achieve this target are, despite their complexity, also relatively clear. However, the context in which the EU operates is rapidly changing. EU research and innovation (R&I) policy must therefore adapt, and quickly.

The reflection paper ‘Addressing European Research and Innovation Challenges for System Transitions in Energy and Mobility’ provides a vision, recommendations and actions for how EU R&I policy in the areas of clean energy and mobility should go about adapting to the challenges the EU now faces. This event will explore the paper’s suggestions and consider how to best to translate them from lofty ambitions to real actions.

Autoship - a new and durable way of freight transport

Autoship is, as the name suggests, an acronym for autonomous ship. Just like with self-driving cars, the possibilities of an unmanned boat seem endless. It can create more efficient freight transport, around the clock deliveries and these are just a few of the examples. The project has two societal challenges.

At first, De Vlaamse Waterweg was a bit hesitant as their experience with FP7 or Horizon 2020 projects was limited and they had not been very successful up until then. The fact that they were already doing basic research on the topic of autonomous boats, and the administrative help of NCP FLanders helped De Vlaamse waterweg to cross the line and get involved.
