Topic description
ExpectedOutcome:
Efficient delivery of the quantified objectives by end of the project.
Objective:
Projects under the Climate Change Mitigation Priority Area should contribute to the socially just and sustainable transition towards a climate neutral economy by 2050 and to reaching the EU emission reduction target for 2030 to at least 55% compared with 1990 levels.
Scope:
Areas of intervention:
- Actions to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the sectors not covered by the EU Emissions Trading System, including the reduction of use of fluorinated greenhouse gases and ozone-depleting substances
- Actions which enhance the functioning of the Emissions Trading System and which have an impact on energy and greenhouse gas intensive industrial production
- Increase the generation and use of renewable energy and improvement of energy efficiency (as far as not covered by specific calls under the Clean Energy Transition sub-programme)
- The development of land and sea management practices which have an impact on emissions and removals of emissions, conservation and enhancement of natural carbon sinks
