Reshaping nutrition across Europe

GIANT LEAPES seeks to accelerate consumers' dietary shift (to turn to alternative dietary proteins from animal-based proteins). This would lead to, among others, fewer greenhouse gas emissions and less use of energy, water and land. This is in line with the farm-to-fork strategy and contributes to the EU Green Deal target that aims to improve the well-being and health of citizens, by providing strategic innovations, methodologies, and open-access datasets. More

Hydrogen Energy Applications for Valley Environments in Northern Netherlands

HEAVENN will introduce a sizeable demonstration project aimed at the development of a methodology for and design of a fully integrated and functioning ‘hydrogen valley’. By bringing together the central elements of hydrogen production, distribution, storage and local-end use, the goal is to demonstrate how this hydrogen valley could reduce carbon emissions as well as potentially benefit businesses along its value chain. More

European Open Science Cloud (EOSC)

The ambition of the European Open Science Cloud is to provide European researchers, innovators, companies and citizens with a federated and open multi-disciplinary environment where they can publish, find and reuse data, tools and services for research, innovation and educational purposes. More
