New Clean Energy Transition Partnetship Joint Call 2023
The Clean Energy Transition Partnership (CETPartnership) is a multilateral and strategic partnership of national and regional research, development and innovation (RDI) programmes in EU/EEA Member States and non-EU/EEA Partner Countries with the aim to substantially support the implementation of the European Strategic Energy Technology Plan (SET Plan).
The CETPartnership Joint Call 2023 is the second annual co-funded call under the CETPartnership. To cover different topics and RDI types, the Call is structured into 12 Call Modules, aimed at different energy technologies and/or systems as well as both research and innovation oriented approaches on different Technology Readiness Levels (TRLs), complementing and completing each other.
Geological Survey Ireland will fund irish based partners in CETPartnership consortia in Transition Initiative 4: Heating & Cooling - CM2023-07: Geothermal Energy Technologies. The Call Module adresses all geothermal energy-related innovations for heating and cooling, power generation, underground thermal energy storage (UTES), and the co-production of geothermal minerals.
Please make sure you careful read all documentation available through the CETP network – projects must adhere to both CETP and GSI/EPA rules and eligibility criteria.
Maximum budget: €200,000
Maximum duration:  Up to 36 months

Clean Energy Transition Partnership Joint Call 2022
The Clean Energy Transition Partnership (CETPartnership) is a multilateral and strategic partnership of national and regional research, development and innovation (RDI) programmes in EU/EEA Member States and non-EU/EEA Partner Countries with the aim to substantially support the implementation of the European Strategic Energy Technology Plan (SET Plan).
CETPartnership builds on existing SET Plan initiatives (ERA-Nets, IWGs, ETIPs, etc.), and aims to create synergies with the National Energy and Climate Plans and with the Recovery and Resilience Facility (RRF). Moreover, the CETPartnership will contribute to reaching the objectives of saving energy, producing clean energy, diversifying Europe's energy supplies, strengthening Europe's clean energy value chains and making them more sustainable, as outlined in the recently launched REPowerEU Plan. 
Geological Survey Ireland will fund Irish based partners in CETPartnership consortia in Call module 4: Heating & Cooling (TRI4: Efficient zero emission Heating and Cooling Solutions). Please make sure you careful read all documentation available through the CETP network – projects must adhere to both CETP and GSI/EPA rules and eligibility criteria.

GEOTHERMICA & SES Joint Call, 2021
The Geothermica and JPP Smart Energy Systems ERA Nets 2021  have
 launched a joint call to foster the integration of existing technology 
as well as technology development for clean energy. Projects should 
develop innovative solutions or new concepts for one or more of the 
following challenges:
Climate-neutral resources for heating and cooling,
 including subsurface (shallow and deep geothermal, solar thermal, and 
other sources of renewable heating and cooling) and utilisation of local
 and regional excess resources.
A resource-efficient and sustainable distribution, storage and utilisation of heating and cooling.
 This includes short time and seasonal thermal storage options and 
innovations for heating and cooling networks, and conversion 
technologies such as heat pumps to distribute the heating and cooling 
and adjust the temperature level where needed.
Integration of heating and cooling in the local and regional energy systems,
 including aspects of sector coupling, smart integration and control 
tools which shall leverage synergies and utilise flexibilities in 
locally and regionally available energy sources, the local and regional 
infrastructures, as well as the user and consumer structures from 
different sectors (including, e. g. communities, industrial facilities, 
or the transportation system) and related consumption patterns.
SEAI will support all topics within the call, GSI will
 support geothermal energy related projects. Please carefully read all 
related documents and terms and conditions - in particular national 
rules for Ireland. 
All applicants must contact NCP in advance of submitting the application to ensure eligibility.
For full information please see the Geothermica website
SEAI
 and GSI are participating as national funders in this joint 2021 call. 
Proposals can include requests for funding from SEAI and/or GSI, however
 individual organisations can only request funding from one or other 
national funder, as relevant. Please review the guidance within Annex 1 
of the Call Test. For any queries please contact the relevant NCP.
