Carbon Market Watch input to public consultation on Horizon Europe

Carbon Market Watch argues that Horizon Europe, with its 100 billion euro budget, should prioritize the decarbonization of the economy and exclude all fossil fuel-based research and innovation to support a transition to net-zero emissions by 2040.

• Carbon Market Watch recommends that at least 50% of the Horizon Europe budget be dedicated to climate action to facilitate the scaling of innovative technologies and economy-wide decarbonization.
• The organization advocates for a total ban on funding for research and innovation projects based on fossil fuels, including natural gas, to avoid perpetuating carbon-intensive infrastructure.
• Horizon Europe is viewed as a critical tool for achieving the EU's long-term climate strategy and reaching net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2040 at the latest.
