This project is part of the Industrial Leap programme, which supports the industry's transition to net zero emissions.

Sweden aims to become a fossil-free welfare nation by 2045. This call for proposals provides aid to projects which, based on sustainable biobased raw materials, have the potential to contribute to solving the energy and climate challenges that Sweden faces as part of meeting this goal. This means that the projects must be relevant to the future energy system, while at the same time contributing to solving the climate challenges.
