Amendment 205 #

Recital 7
(7) Where relevant, partnerships should consider Technical Screening Criteria as of Art. 3 and the “Do No Significant Harm” principle as of Art. 17 of the Regulation (EU) 2020/852 as an instrument to improve their projects readiness and access to green financing that will be crucial for market uptake and wider deployment of the innovative technologies and solutions they will deliver. Scientific evidence is at the core of the Technical Screening Criteria. Research and innovation, pursued by Partnerships, should play an important role to help economic operators reach or go beyond the standards and thresholds set up in the Regulation and to keep the Technical Screening Criteria up-to-date and consistent with the European Green Deal objectives.deleted

Recital 14
(14) Horizon Europe introduces a more strategic, coherent and impact-driven approach to European partnerships, building on the lessons learned from the Horizon 2020 interim evaluation. In line with the new ambition, this Regulation aims at a more effective use of institutionalised European partnerships notably by focusing on clear objectives, outcomes and impact that can be achieved by 2030, and by ensuring a clear contribution to the related Union policy priorities and policies. Close collaboration and synergies with other relevant initiatives at Union, national and regional level, in particular with other European partnerships, are key in achieving greater impact and ensuring take up of results. To this end, the Commission should develop clear, simple and concrete guidelines to enact the different types of synergies (i.e. transfer of resources, alternative funding, cumulative funding and integrated funding). Synergies and complementarities with the European financial institutions, such as European Bank for Reconstruction and Development and the European Investment Bank, as well as with relevant industrial alliances and with charitable foundations and trusts, should also be explored. In assessing the overall impact, broader investments beyond the contributions from partners and triggered by the joint undertakings that contribute to achieving their objectives should be taken into account. This Regulation should facilitate the acceleration of market uptake of innovative solutions, preferably in Europe, by industry and SMEs of all joint undertakings, thereby improving the socio-economic impact of their activities.

Recital 29
(29) The joint undertakings should operate in an open and transparent way, providing all relevant information in a timely manner to their appropriate bodies as well as promoting their activities, including information and dissemination activities, to the wider public, engaging in awareness raising campaigns, promoting educational and dissemination activities, with the involvement of academic, scientific and knowledge networks, social and economic partners, industry and SMEs associations and media. All joint undertakings should make dedicated efforts to ensure that the public is sufficiently and timely informed of the joint undertakings’ activities and should provide appropriate information on their respective websites, including the publication of relevant documentation. They should enhance the dialogue with society, increase awareness on innovative technologies and developments, favor active participation in all stages of scientific inquiry, thus enabling citizens toco-design solutions, contribute to ideas and create constructive attitudes about the activities and the results of the joint undertakings, thereby increasing trust in technological solutions to current and future challenges.

Recital 39
(39) In the context of the European Commission’s priority of “A European Green Deal”13 supported by the revised Union Bioeconomy Strategy14 , the EU Biodiversity Strategy15 , the Clean Planet for All Communication16 , the Circular Economy Action Plan17 and the new Farm to Fork communication18 , and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, the European bio-based sector, including SMEs and start-ups, regions and primary producers should become climate neutral, more circular and more sustainable while remaining competitive on the global scale. A strong, resource efficient and competitive bio-based innovation ecosystem can decrease dependency on and accelerate the substitution of non- renewable fossil raw materials and mineral resources. It can develop renewable bio- based products, materials, processes and nutrients from waste and biomass through sustainability and circularity-driven innovation. Such ecosystem can also create value from local feedstock – including waste, residues and side-streams – to deliver jobs, economic growth and development throughout the Union not only in urban areas but also in rural and coastal territories where biomass is produced and that are often peripheral regions that rarely benefit from industrial development. It can also contribute to the identification of solutions using negative emissions technologies, such as carbon capture storage and utilisation technologies. _________________ 13 https://ec.europa.eu/info/strategy/priorities- 2019-2024/european-green-deal_en 14 COM(2018)673 final 15 COM/2020/380 final 16https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal- content/EN/TXT/PDF/?uri=CELEX:52018 DC0773&from=EN 17 COM(2020)98 final 18 COM(2020)381 final

Amendment 276 #

Recital 44 a (new)
(44 a) Clean and sustainable aviation, which is facing significant challenges due to the COVID-19 pandemic, has been recognised as avital element for Union’s success in a highly competitive world. A share of the 5.4 billion Euros that were allocated, under the inter-institutional agreement on the MFF, to Horizon Europe from Next Generation EU, should be allocated to the Clean Aviation Joint Undertaking. The Clean Aviation Joint Undertaking could expand the aeronautics research support base in different ways. It could help import new knowledge, solutions and innovation potential by finding ideas in other sciences and sectors. It could also enable students to contribute in an industrial environment, particularly in SMEs. Successful collaboration between joint undertakings and academic institutions may lead to sponsored research contracts, funded collaborations, student internship programs, shared specialized facilities, industry affiliates programs, grants, awards, prizes that energize the academic community.

Recital 46
(46) In order to maximise synergies between programmes at Union, national and regional level, the members of the States’ Representatives Group of the Clean Aviation Joint Undertaking should explore possibilities to provide financial support at national level to excellent proposals that were not selected for funding by the Clean Aviation Joint Undertaking due to oversubscription. It is of particular importance for the Member States and the regions to maximise the alignment of their smart specialisation strategies and operational programmes with Clean Aviation work programmes to enable the 5% transfer mechanism from European structural and investment funds to the Clean Aviation Joint Undertaking or other forms of implementation of the synergies such as complementary projects, cumulative funding or synergy labels. The Clean Aviation Joint Undertaking should develop synergies and additional technical activities, in particular through complementarities with the Clean Hydrogen and Circular Bio-based Europe Joint Undertakings, the European Defence Fund, Connecting Europe Facility, Digital Europe Programme and relevant industrial alliances.

Recital 62
(62) Tackling infectious diseases affecting sub-Saharan Africa with modern technology tools requires the involvement of a large set of actors and long-term commitments. The Global Health EDCTP3 Joint Undertaking should broker productive and sustainable North–South and South–South networking and cooperation, building relationships with multiple private, non-profit and public sector organisations to strengthen project and institutional collaborations. The programme should also help to establish new North–South and South-South collaborations to conduct multi-country, multi-site studies in sub-Saharan Africa. In addition, a regular international conference, the EDCTP Forum, should provide a platform for scientists and relevant networks from Europe, Africa, and elsewhere to share findings and ideas, and to establish collaborative links.
