Safely integrating disruptive technologies in the public sector
From robots to chatbots, emerging technology can make public administrations more efficient and responsive. It is critical, however, that these innovations are adopted in ethical and trustworthy ways. To address this, the EU-funded ETAPAS project developed a framework to help the public sector handle the ethical, social and legal challenges of emerging technologies.

Making AI accessible for life science research
Analysing biological imagery such as microscope slides can be labour-intensive, especially as not all researchers know how best to automate this with AI. The EU-funded AI4LIFE project provides access to AI technologies, making models and AI-ready data sets open and accessible to everyone. This means researchers can spend more time interpreting data, accelerating scientific discovery.

The world’s first methanol-powered tugboat highlights a greener future for shipping
The shipping industry produces more than 1 billion tonnes of carbon dioxide each year, accounting for nearly 3 % of human-caused global emissions. By converting ships to run on renewable liquid fuels, the EU-funded FASTWATER project is showing how transport emissions can be cut, offering significant progress towards the EU’s climate goals.

Water infrastructure tools help Europe’s cities go with the flow
Half of the world’s population lives in cities, and this figure is growing. Delivering water and sewage services in urban areas continues to be a significant challenge, especially in the face of climate change. Digital tools developed by the EU-funded DWC project are already being used to maintain Europe’s commitment to high-quality water infrastructure.

Sustainable ICT solutions for our connected world
The continuous rise of mobile communications has transformed how we work, live and play. But the power needed to deliver this growing data infrastructure has an equally large carbon footprint. Through 15 fellowships, the EU-funded GREENEDGE project aims to design energy-efficient technologies and combine them with the efficient management of ambient energy sources to reduce the impact of data services.

A groundbreaking approach offers clean hydrogen using synthetic biology
Hydrogen produced with electricity is one of the most promising approaches for reducing carbon emissions, yet large-scale production has proven difficult. One problem lies in the need for rare metals to act as catalysts. The EU-funded CaBiS project has been exploring the possibility of adapting natural processes, with synthetic enzymes.

Turning global carbon emissions into healthy soil
Agriculture accounts for 25 % of the world’s total carbon emissions. To help the sector reduce its carbon footprint, the EU-funded AgriCapture project is turning to a process that removes carbon from the atmosphere and stores it in soil. Not only can this reduce net greenhouse gas emissions, it also improves soil quality.
