CEF

The EU would like to improve Europe’s infrastructure through CEF (Connecting Europe Facility). CEF is all about crossing boundaries with projects of European importance. Especially projects concerning:

• Making existing networks more efficient
• Tackling important problems or bottlenecks
• Implementing missing key points in infrastructure, especially where the market or government falls short

Is it likely that you can receive a CEF-subsidy?

Each organisation or company is eligible for a CEF-subsidy if the project concerns one of the following areas.

Energy

• Energy-infrastructure for alternate fuels
• Updating existing energy networks and developing new energy networks of European importance

Transportation

• Improving rail-, water-, air- and road infrastructure systems
• Improving harbour- and container transportation connections to the countryside
• Multimodal facilities, such as transportation terminals or overseas ports
• Decreasing noise disturbance caused by rail transport
• Sustainable transport, like LNG and clean ships
• Innovative transport-technologies in the area of noise reduction

Telecom

• Implementation of high-speed broadband networks and digital infrastructures
• Subjects such as BRIS, e-ID, EESSI, Cyber Security, eDelivery, eHealth, eProcurement, eInvoicing, eTranslation, Europeana and Public Open Data
