The “Greentech and Circular Economy Innovation” aims to select start-ups and SMEs that are already developing innovative solutions for improving refinery waste management, remediating soil and water contamination and improving energy system efficiency in highly complex industrial settings.
This call, as part of the Federated Innovation @MIND initiative—promoted by Eni and MAIRE, in collaboration with A2A Life Company and supported by the Circular Economy Lab, an initiative by Cariplo Factory and Intesa Sanpaolo Innovation Center — aims to develop a Proof of Concept (POC) at the MIND-Milano Innovation District or at the industrial sites of the participating companies.
Up to 10 start-ups will be selected and invited to a Selection Day to pitch their ideas to the competition’s organizers. Up to 3 ready-to-implement solutions will be chosen for joint projects with A2A Life Company, Eni and MAIRE.
The areas of interest where innovative solutions are sought:
- Energy Supply and Demand Management: IT and digital solutions for effective energy demand management in complex systems.
- Data Center Heat Load: cross-infrastructure IT solutions for managing heat loads in data centers.
- Recovery and Remediation of Contaminated Soil: innovative solutions for recovering and remediating soil, water, and sludge.
- Refinery Waste Recovery: technologies that recover and reuse of refinery waste, including oily sludge, inert materials, and spent catalysts.
This call is open to Italian and international innovative start-ups and SMEs in the greentech sector. The deadline to apply is 15 November 2024.
