The partnership aims to accelerate the implementation of innovative, connected, cooperative and automated mobility (CCAM) through the following three goals:
By 2030, the partnership aims to have demonstrated inclusive, user-oriented and well-integrated mobility concepts with increased safety and a reduced carbon footprint. Its goal is to make Europe a world leader in the deployment of CCAM.
The CCAM Partnership's activities are structured around 7 clusters, organising the R&I actions by aligning deployment readiness with road users and operators, policy-makers, and industry:
As a co-programmed partnership, the CCAM call topics are fully integrated in the regular Horizon Europe cluster 5 work programme. These topics contribute to achieving the objectives of this co-programmed partnership.
Partnerships group the EC and private and/or public partners, to coordinate and streamline the research & innovation initiatives and funding in some selected key domains.
The ROOT project obtained funding under Horizon 2020 topic ‘EGNSS applications fostering societal resilience and protecting the environment’. The project, which ran from November 2020 to July 2022, aimed to demonstrate the benefit of Galileo OSNMA signal to increase the robustness of critical telecom infrastructures.
The Flanders-based company Septentrio contributed substantially to completing this objective together with the other ROOT partners. The results of the project partially close a gap in the security of telecommunication networks dependent on satellite-derived time, with indirect benefits in curbing illegal attempts to disrupt network services.
