The primary focus is to create sustainable energy solutions in all aspects of production, through enhancing collaboration among the three pillars of the knowledge triangle and fostering innovation that can be embraced by the market.
EIT InnoEnergy concentrates on the following thematic fields:
If you are an innovator with a promising technology or service aligned with any of these eight thematic fields, you can apply to join the ecosystem. Among other benefits, joining the ecosystem allows exposure and access to a venture capital community.
EIT InnoEnergy not only provides funding possibilities, but also assists in making your product or service market-ready, transforming it into a viable business.
Additionally, EIT InnoEnergy has an education pillar focused on training workers who will operate in these innovative areas, called InnoEnergy Skills Institute.
With the e-mobility future in mind, EIT InnoEnergy partnered with European Battery Alliance to establish an upskill and reskill programme: EBA Academy.
There are regular announcements for calls for proposals for different programs (EIT, EIC, third party calls for proposals, ...). To explore the opportunities and stay updated with the latest news, please visit the innovation community's webpage.

The Stargate project obtained funding under the special Green Deal call of Horizon 2020, more in particular under the topic of “green ports and airports”. It received the maximum score of the evaluators and was selected out of more than 40 projects. Stargate’s purpose is to prove that sustainable aviation is possible and happening. It focuses on the further decarbonization of the aviation industry, the improvement of local environmental quality and the stimulation of the modal split. Together with a consortium of 21 European partners with a diverse and rich expertise (airports, community partners, knowledge institutions, consultants, local governments, …), Brussels Airports takes the lead as lighthouse airport to develop and implement innovative solutions. Results that prove successful can be deployed at the fellow airports (Toulouse, Budapest, Athens). Over the course of the coming five years, the consortium will exchange knowledge to investigate and realize more than 30 concrete projects.
