Texto original del donante (inglés)
Expected Outcome:
Project results are expected to contribute to the improved circularity of end-of-first-life representative EV components (e.g. power electronic converters, rotors, stators of electric motors, thermal management of battery system), and, if relevant EVCI, through accurate and standardised assessment of product data, better design strategies and potential business models.
Further to this, each area has specific expected outcomes as described below.
Expected outcomes area A) Circular economy for Electric Vehicle (EV) powertrains and infrastructure:
Project results are expected to contribute to all the following outcomes:
Minimized cradle to grave/cradle environmental impact of EV drivetrains (excluding batteries at cell level) and Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure (EVCI), especially electro-mechanical components and power-electronics, via design strategies for extended lifetime and reduced usage of CRM, and other materials, particularly those that may hamper high quality recycling (e.g. harmful substances), while ensuring high performance and market acceptability.
Improved repair, recovery, refurbish and re-use of end-of-first-life drivetrain components and…

General conditions
1. Admissibility Conditions: Proposal page limit and layout
described in Annex A and Annex E of the Horizon Europe Work Programme General Annexes.
Proposal page limits and layout: described in Part B of the Application Form available in the Submission System.
2. Eligible Countries
described in Annex B of the Work Programme General Annexes.
A number of non-EU/non-Associated Countries that are not automatically eligible for funding have made specific provisions for making funding available for their participants in Horizon Europe projects. See the information in the Horizon Europe Programme Guide.
3. Other Eligible Conditions
If projects use satellite-based earth observation, positioning, navigation and/or related timing data and services, beneficiaries must make use of Copernicus and/or Galileo/EGNOS (other data and services may additionally be used).
In line with the “restriction on control in innovation actions in critical technology areas” delineated in General Annex B of the General Annexes, entities established in an eligible country but which are directly or indirectly controlled by China or by a legal entity established in China are not eligible to participate in the action.
described in Annex B of the Work Programme General Annexes.
4. Financial and operational capacity and exclusion
described in Annex C of the Work Programme General Annexes.
5a. Evaluation and award: Award criteria, scoring and thresholds
To ensure a balanced portfolio covering different sectors, grants will be awarded to proposals not only in order of ranking but at least also to the two highest-ranked proposal for each area A) Circular economy for Electric Vehicle (EV) powertrains and infrastructure; and B) Data-driven life-cycle management of Electric Vehicle (EV), provided that the proposals attain all thresholds.
are described in Annex D of the Work Programme General Annexes.
5b. Evaluation and award: Submission and evaluation processes
are described in Annex F of the Work Programme General Annexes and the Online Manual.
5c. Evaluation and award: Indicative timeline for evaluation and grant agreement
described in Annex F of the Work Programme General Annexes.
6. Legal and financial set-up of the grants
The granting authority may, up to 4 years after the end of the action, object to a transfer of ownership or to the exclusive licensing of results, as set out in the specific provision of Annex 5.
Eligible costs will take the form of a lump sum as defined in the Decision of 7 July 2021 authorising the use of lump sum contributions under the Horizon Europe Programme – the Framework Programme for Research and Innovation (2021-2027) – and in actions under the Research and Training Programme of the European Atomic Energy Community (2021-2025) [[This decision is available on the Funding and Tenders Portal, in the reference documents section for Horizon Europe, under ‘Simplified costs decisions’ or through this link: https://ec.europa.eu/info/funding-tenders/opportunities/docs/2021-2027/horizon/guidance/ls-decision_he_en.pdf]].
described in Annex G of the Work Programme General Annexes.
