Swiss Energy research for the Energy Transition Funding Programme (SWEET)
The Swiss Energy research for the Energy Transition (SWEET) is a funding programme of the Swiss Federal Office of Energy (SFOE) meant to accelerate domestic decarbonisation and related innovations.
The programme was launched in early 2021. The funding programme initially ran until 2032, and has been extended to 2036. In each call, research proposals can be submitted on pre-defined research challenges. Consortia from different universities, other higher education institutions and public or private-sector partners may apply.
SWEET focuses on solution-oriented research in relevant topic areas and on the practical application of research findings. Funding is available to inter- and transdisciplinary research and innovation projects, known as consortium projects. Pilot and demonstration projects involve stakeholders from outside the research community as well.
