Abstract: Industry contributed for about 20% of the greenhouse gas emissions in 2019 in the EU. Cement, chemicals and steel industries are among the most energy-intensive industries. Around €26,522 Million of the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) was used to support projects related to low-carbon industrial technologies (15% of the total ERDF in the period 2014-2020). 16% of the ERDF low-carbon project is associated with Research & Innovation (R&I) funding (€4,255 Million). 13% of R&D project in low-carbon are transnational and interregional cooperation projects (€549 Million) under the Interreg programme. Higher share of low-carbon projects over total ERDF is observed in central and eastern Europe. ERDF projects in the chemicals industry (€407 Million) registered a substantially higher amount than those in cement (€101 Million) or steel (€89 Million) industries.
