Knowledge Hub: a marketplace for projects and case studies

This time, we are excited to introduce a dedicated space for selected participants to showcase their case studies, projects, or other insights not only in the presentations format.

For those who prefer not to present during a panel session, this is a great opportunity to share your expertise and connect with others.

  • posters by Participants on the topic ranging from OSS, financing, promotion of renovation to retrofitting historical buildings (and poster session – Wednesday 21 May, 16.oo-17.3o)
  • projects corner – display of roll-up banners by selection of EU-funded projects
  • CINEA stand – possibility to learn more about EU funding opportunities and technical support

CINEA stand

Visit CINEA stand to discover how LIFE Clean Energy Transition funds projects driving the EU’s sustainable energy and energy efficiency objectives. Learn about LIFE funding opportunities for 2025.

The LIFE Clean Energy Transition sub-programme has a budget of nearly EUR 1 billion over the period of 2021-2027 and aims at supporting the energy transition across Europe. LIFE CET aims to address non-technological market barriers that hinder the socio-economic transition to energy efficiency and renewable energy. LIFE CET projects usually involve multiple small and medium-sized stakeholders, including local and regional public authorities and non-profit organisations.

The LIFE CET call for proposals 2025 is open until 23 September 2025. Funding is available to support projects in five areas of intervention:

  • Building a national, regional and local policy framework supporting the clean energy transition;
  • Accelerating technology roll-out, digitalisation, new services and business models and enhancement of the related professional skills on the market;
  • Attracting private finance for sustainable energy;
  • Supporting the development of local and regional investment projects;
  • Involving and empowering citizens in the clean energy transition.
