Call summary

SAF€RA invites pre-proposals for its seventh joint call on industrial safety implications of platform work, the green deal and advanced materials for energy storage. This supports research on the management of industrial risk, avoiding major impacts on the environment or society, as well as research on products and systems required to improve safety in industrial settings. Funding is typically worth between €20,000 and €150,000 per project partner for between one and three years.

Scientific scope

Energy Storage - Batteries & Grid; Materials Sciences; Energy Conversion; Environmental Manufacturing; Industrial Safety & Human Factors

PI eligibility

Projects must involve the collaboration of at least two research teams in two eligible countries, which include all EU member states, Serbia and the UK. Researchers may either apply as a transnational consortium comprising at least two partner organisations from two eligible countries or as one or more organisations from single eligible country. In the latter case, the steering committee will suggest grouping two or more single-nation pre-proposals into a transnational consortium. Additional consortium partners not eligible for funding may participate. The aim is to fund mainly applied research and innovation projects carried out in universities and research institutes, though proposals from industry may also be eligible if they contain a significant research component.
