SC3 - Secure, clean and efficient energy
Phased out programme > Switch to Horizon Europe

About this programme

The Energy Challenge is designed to support the transition to a reliable, sustainable and competitive energy system.

To make the transition to a competitive energy system, we need to overcome a number of challenges, such as increasingly scarce resources, growing energy needs and climate change.

The Energy Challenge is structured around seven specific objectives and research areas:

  • Reducing energy consumption and carbon footprint
  • Low-cost, low-carbon electricity supply
  • Alternative fuels and mobile energy sources
  • A single, smart European electricity grid
  • New knowledge and technologies
  • Robust decision making and public engagement
  • Market uptake of energy and ICT innovation.

Code4Europe: Digitale Wolven participates in research focused on widening digital literacy

Digitale Wolven, a Belgian non-profit organisation, forms the national hub for Belgium and the Netherlands in the Digital Europe project Code4Europe. Code4Europe aims to form a generation that is comfortable with digital tools and confident enough to build with them by widening digital literacy, making coding accessible to people who would otherwise never try it, and encouraging young people to picture themselves working in the digital sector.
