Article 1 – paragraph 1 – point 1
The Research Programme shall provide support, including to small and medium- sized enterprises, for collaborative research in the coal and steel sectors with particular emphasis on coking coal, which as one of the critical raw materials for the Union has great potential for development of highly advanced products in strategic value chains (e.g. battery anodes, carbon fibres) and chemistry. The Research Programme shall also provide support for clean steel breakthrough technologies leading to near zero-carbon steel making projects and research projects for managing the just transition of formerly operating coal mines or coal mines in the process of closure and related infrastructure in line with the Just Transition Mechanism and in compliance with Article 4(2) of Council Decision 2003/76/EC1a. The Research Programme shall provide support as well for larger industrial research projects, linked in the case of coal to the Just Transition Mechanism.
