France climate grants
22 open listings, soonest deadline first.
French climate funding runs mainly through two agencies and a public bank. ADEME handles ecological-transition grants across energy, waste and industry; Bpifrance covers innovation and scale-up finance; ANR funds the research end; and Aides-Territoires aggregates the regional and local schemes that never appear on a national portal. Listed below are the open climate grants in France that landscape produces, taken from each publisher's own notice and re-checked on every refresh.
Grant funding across western Europe layers national programmes on top of EU instruments, and the two run on different clocks: EU calls (Horizon Europe, LIFE, the Innovation Fund) publish work programmes a year or more ahead, while national schemes open and close on domestic budget cycles. Consortium requirements are common on the European side and rare on the national one, so the same project often needs two quite different applications.
This page lists 22 open climate grants covering France, soonest deadline first. Every listing has been classified against the sustainability taxonomy rather than matched on keywords, and geographic coverage is read from the notice itself, so a programme open to France through a wider European or global scheme appears here too.
4 distinct funders publish the calls on this page. Who is behind a call matters as much as what it funds: eligibility, reporting burden and the realistic timeline to a decision vary far more between funders than between individual calls, so it is worth opening a listing before judging the programme.
The work on this page spans Energy Efficiency, Heating and Cooling, Methane and Super Pollutants, Circular Economy, Renewable Energy. Narrowing to one of those is usually a better use of time than reading the whole list, because eligibility tends to follow the sector far more closely than it follows the country.
1 of these close within the next 30 days. Deadlines are taken from the source listing and re-checked on every refresh, but the publishing body remains the authority, so confirm against the official notice before you submit.
