In 2022, the Research Fund for Coal and Steel (RFCS) – whose origins in the European Coal and Steel Community are at the roots of modern European unity – will celebrate its 20th anniversary and enter a new era under its revised legal basis, with an increased budget for research activities.
To mark the occasion, the European Commission’s Directorate-General for Research and Innovation (DG R&I) and the European Research Executive Agency (REA) co-hosted, together with the coal and steel communities, a high-level two-day event in Brussels on 21 and 22 March 2022, with the first day dedicated to steel and the second to coal.
RECOVERY Project was presented there, within the session RFCS coal projects that have supported and promoted the European Green Deal, to highlight RFCS success stories and to take stock of the key technological breakthroughs likely to generate long-term impacts.
