The Clean Aviation Partnership will develop disruptive new aircraft technologies to support the European Green Deal and climate neutrality by 2050. These technologies will deliver net greenhouse gas (GHG) reductions of no less than 30%, compared to the 2020 state-of-the-art.

Formalised under the structure of an institutionalised public-private partnership which ensures that research activities of the aviation industry are aligned with the European Union’s policy priorities, the Clean Aviation JU's programme focuses on three main areas:

These three main areas of research and development are further discussed in the Strategic Research and Innovation Agenda (SRIA).
The Clean Aviation JU has various operational objectives compared to 2020 state-of-the-art aircraft:

  • net CO2 reductions of up to 90%, utilising SAF and/or renewable hydrogen as energy source
  • the deployment of new aircraft with this performance no later than 2035, enabling 75% of the world’s civil aviation fleet to be replaced by 2050

Clean Aviation Joint Undertaking builds on its predecessor, the Clean Sky 2 JU programme. As an institutionalised partnership, the Clean Aviation JU does not publish the call for proposals in the regular Horizon Europe work programmes. Rather, Clean Aviation publishes their own work programmes.

What are partnerships?

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.

How to use partnerships?

  • orientation
    Partnerships publish strategic documents, e.g. outlining the main research and innovation challenges or key focus points.
  • networking
    Partnerships often organise events, such as info days, brokerage events, etc. Meet potential partners and learn about the nuances that are not visible in the official documents.
  • ecosystem analysis
    Partnerships typically have an advisory board, and publish impact studies of previous actions. These are good sources of information to uncover the main R&D&I players in the domain.
  • steering the agenda
    Partnerships collaborate with the EC on outlining the strategy and the future funding opportunities in their domain, based on input from industry, academia, and other stakeholders.

Theresa PCP: ZAS participates in research developing an on-site system to decontaminate hospital wastewater

Funded under Horizon Europe (HORIZON-HLTH-2024-CARE-14-01), running from 2025 to 2029, the THERESA PCP aims to launch a pre-commercial procurement process (PCP) based on the development of an environmentally sustainable on-site system to decontaminate hospital wastewater. Ziekenhuis aan de Stroom (ZAS) plays an important role in the project by contributing real-world insights from a large and diverse hospital network. Read more about the project in this testimonial.
