It supports creating and better dispersing of excellent knowledge and technologies.It creates jobs, fully engages the EU’s talent pool, boosts economic growth, promotes industrial competitiveness and optimises investment impact within a strengthened European Research Area.Legal entities from the EU and associated countries can participate.Key details about Horizon Europe:Nature of Horizon Europe:It is a 7-year research and innovation program (2021-2027).It has a total budget of €95.5 billion.It focuses on addressing global challenges, such as climate change, health, digital technologies, and more.Role:It serves as a funding framework for researchers, universities, industries, SMEs, and organizations within the EU and associated countries.It does not distribute funds directly but is managed by the European Commission and its agencies, such as the European Research Executive Agency (REA).Related Funding Agencies: Horizon Europe collaborates with funding agencies or entities responsible for allocating funds for specific projects, including:European Research Council (ERC): Supports frontier research.Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA): Focuses on researcher development and international collaboration.Innovation Fund: Provides funding for innovative projects.Conclusion:Horizon Europe is not a funding agency but a funding framework managed by the European Commission to promote research and innovation in Europe and internationally.Countries in ASEAN can apply for funding from Horizon Europe in certain cases, depending on the type of project and the country’s status within the Horizon Europe framework. Here’s a detailed explanation:1. ASEAN Countries and EligibilityASEAN countries are not EU Member States or Associated Countries:Countries in ASEAN such as Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, and Vietnam are categorized as Third Countries (non-EU and non-Associated Countries).Third Countries Status:Researchers or organizations from these countries can still participate as partners with teams from EU Member States or Associated Countries.2. Conditions for Third CountriesMost ASEAN countries are not eligible for direct funding from Horizon Europe (non-eligible for funding). However, they can collaborate with European teams in specific projects.Example:A research team in Thailand can join as a partner in a project with a European team.Collaborations are typically focused on global challenges, such as climate change, biodiversity, or health.Some ASEAN countries may be supported in certain cases, such as Low- and Middle-Income Countries, as defined by Horizon Europe.3. Examples of ASEAN ParticipationVietnam: Often supported under topics related to sustainable development.Singapore: Can participate as a Third Country, though not eligible for direct funding, it can still contribute as a partner in significant research projects.Thailand: Research teams from Thailand often join through International Cooperation in areas related to regional issues, such as renewable energy or environmental conservation. 4. Recommendations for ASEAN Countries Applying for Horizon Europe FundingBuild collaborations with teams from EU or Associated Countries:This increases the chances of participation and funding opportunities.Focus on projects addressing global challenges:For example, climate change, health innovation, or food security.Review specific project requirements:Some projects may allow ASEAN countries to participate and receive funding.

Call for PapersVenue: SingaporeImportant DatesSubmission Deadline: January 20, 2025Notification Deadline: February 10, 2025Registration Deadline: February 20, 2025Link: https://www.icgea.org/index.htmlSubmitted papers will be reviewed by Technical Program Committee and sub-reviewers. All accepted (Registered & Presented) papers of ICGEA 2025 will be submitted for inclusion into IEEE Xplore, indexed by EI Compendex & Scopus, etc. Energy is inarguably one of the most pressing global issues faced by humanity in this century, and a reliable and sustainable energy system is crucial to achieve a more sustainable future. The world's energy consumption is expected to nearly double by 2050, with most of the growth happened in countries outside of the OECD. Sustainable development requires consistent access to clean, affordable energy to support economic activity, improve national development, and improve human wellbeing. In addition, there is a strong link between the energy sector and global climate change due to the impact of CO2 arising from burning the fossil fuels. Study shows that carbon emissions hit the peak in 2018, mainly from the carbon-rich fossil fuels that generated nearly 85% of the world’s energy. Taking the above-mentioned as a backdrop, energy is certainly a complex technology involving multidisciplinary research, development, demonstration and deployment in energy systems, grid systems and applications, especially in the energy transition era.In anticipation, the combination of rising populations and living standards of human society in the next 50 years will demand for the development of massively scaled sustainable energy and low-carbon electricity generation solutions with an objective of battling the climate change. These challenges, albeit an unparalleled threat to the business-as-usual, also represent a remarkable opportunity for research, innovation, and green growth.With the success of the previous 8 year, ICGEA came to its 9th edition in 2025. It is proud to announce that 2025 The 9th International Conference on Green Energy and Applications will be held during March 7-9, 2025 in Singapore, which is sponsored by Singapore Institute of Electronics. The theme of ICGEA 2025 is to bridge and connect presenters and audience with different disciplines and background as well as from different geographical locations.
