Machine-classified from the call text; check eligibility at the source. 23 Oct 2026

Typed facts extracted from the source documents by Scindu's grant-data review. Each value keeps its own conditions. Unknown means unstated, not zero or unlimited.

Applicant type

Eligible applicants are research organizations, science units and innovation centers (as leader or partner in R&D projects) and micro, small and medium enterprises (as leader or partner). Each research organization/science unit/innovation center must partner with an enterprise, and each enterprise must partner with at least one research/science/innovation organization conducting research.

Application restriction

Applications may be submitted from 30 July 2026 through 30 November 2026 under competitive call FEPZ.02.11-IZ.00-001/26.

Applications closed

No

Eligible project scope

Projects must support increased renewable-energy use, including searching for new renewable-energy technologies, and be R&D or demonstration partnerships between research/science institutions or innovation centers and enterprises developing, testing or implementing technical or organizational solutions.

Employment contract type

Where project duties are assigned through employment or secondment, the employment agreement, secondment arrangement, duties statement or job description must document the project tasks and cover all project tasks assigned to the person. A sole-trader natural person who is themselves a beneficiary has a separate conditional route only when the approved application specifies that engagement form, duties and engagement cost settled on an accounting note; this is not a general contractor rule.

No call-specific contract type is prescribed for each researcher, technician or auxiliary worker. These are the supported documentation routes and conditional sole-trader beneficiary rule in the incorporated guidelines.

Other condition

The call regulations identify the applicable 2021–2027 expenditure-eligibility guidelines as the version approved 19 May 2026 and effective 25 May 2026. This addendum uses that exact version, subsection 3.8 (printed pp. 57–61), not a later unverified edition.

Other condition

In partnership projects, partners may not commission one another to perform project tasks through project personnel.

This is a partner-to-partner personnel-task prohibition; it does not establish a general ban on external procurement or other eligible service costs.

Other condition

The call sets no minimum or maximum total, eligible-expenditure or requested-funding amount per project.

Other condition

Subsection 3.8 generally does not apply to personnel costs settled through simplified methods under subsection 3.10, except its criminal-record check rule in §3.8(13). This call states direct costs are settled on actual expenditure; therefore the call-listed direct project-personnel costs are reviewed under subsection 3.8.

The call separately describes indirect management/coordination personnel costs under indirect-cost rules; this statement is limited to direct project personnel costs.

Staff monthly hours, maximum

276 hours per month per person

Aggregate professional engagement across all EU-funded projects and activities financed from other sources, including the beneficiary’s and other entities’ own funds, regardless of engagement form. Annual leave and sickness count; other absences such as unpaid, parental and maternity leave do not. Check before engagement and throughout the period for which pay is claimed. This is a workload ceiling, not a paid-hour or salary rate.

Call allocation

PLN 3,924,000

Call pool stated as PLN 3,924,000, simultaneously not more than EUR 1,000,000; PLN value may change with the exchange rate.

Eligible cost

Subsection 3.8 allows bonuses and awards only conditionally: where existing work/remuneration rules provide for them at least six months before application (unless provided by generally applicable law), potentially covering all employees under the same rules, and awarded for project tasks under an employment relationship. A remuneration supplement has analogous prior-rule/equal-treatment conditions, is eligible only during project engagement, must depend on additional duties and be stated in the approved application; if awarded for beneficiary projects it is allocated proportionally to engagement. Statutory annual additional remuneration may be eligible in the same proportion as the employee’s salary cost is charged to the project.

Conditional eligibility only; these clauses provide no guaranteed bonus, supplement, annual-pay amount or percentage for this call.

Eligible cost

For EFRR project personnel, remuneration costs may not exceed the beneficiary’s remuneration for employees in analogous positions or positions requiring analogous qualifications.

This is a beneficiary-specific comparative ceiling; the guideline publishes no numerical salary amount or general hourly/monthly rate.

Eligible cost

If an employee’s employment covers project work only in part, project tasks must be expressly identified; the task scope is the basis for determining the employee’s actual project-time proportion, and the salary cost follows that proportion unless responsibility, complexity or required competence justifies a different share.

Applies to partial project duties within an employment relationship; the exception concerns the share of expenditure relative to working time, not a numeric rate.

Eligible cost

The call expressly includes remuneration costs for project personnel—researchers, technicians and other auxiliary workers—under subsection 3.8 of the national 2021–2027 expenditure-eligibility guidelines.

Eligible cost

Subsection 3.8 allows project-personnel engagement costs when the project character makes personnel necessary. Eligible remuneration components include gross pay and employer-borne statutory costs (including social-insurance contributions, Labour Fund, FGŚP, PPK, ZFŚS or PPE costs).

These are national eligibility conditions for the call-listed researchers, technicians and auxiliary workers; they do not create a role-specific hiring requirement or rate.

Eligible cost

Personnel business-travel costs and professional-qualification development costs may be eligible only if the approved application includes them as necessary for proper project implementation.

Conditional personnel-related costs, not an allowance or salary rate. This does not convert external training or consultancy into employment costs.

Eligible cost limit

50 percent of project eligible expenditure

Implementation and investment cost category B is limited to 50% of the project’s eligible expenditure; this is a project cost-basket limit, not a personnel or individual award cap.

Eligible cost limit

20 percent of project eligible expenditure

Competency development and training cost category D is limited to 20% of project eligible expenditure.

Funding intensity, maximum

85 percent of total eligible expenditure

General maximum; public-aid scheme limits can further reduce the rate for aid-eligible costs.
