All about subsidies for sustainable projects

MOOI

The MOOI (Mission-Driven Research, Development and Innovation) supports innovative collaborations that contribute to the Dutch climate goals. It focuses on projects that lead to a first implementation in practice within five years of starting—such as in the electricity, built environment, industry, or biobased/circular economy sectors.

The subsidy is intended for large-scale research and development projects. The funding amount depends on the type of participating organization and ranges from 60% to 80%. Eligible costs include:

  • In-house hours and third-party hires

  • Machinery, tools, and measuring equipment

  • Material rental, testing, and trial runs

  • Transport and knowledge development

In addition to financial support, participation also offers strategic advantages. The project serves as a strong form of positioning, contributes to future vision and innovation capacity, and can generate new collaborations and leads.

Who is the MOOI for?
The MOOI is intended for consortia: collaborations between companies, knowledge institutions, governments, or social organizations. Participating parties pool their knowledge and resources to jointly develop an innovative solution that contributes to the energy transition.

This scheme is suited for organizations that look beyond technology alone—those willing to invest in collaboration, societal impact, and a sustainable future.

  • Writing and submitting the subsidy application

  • Responding to questions from the Netherlands Enterprise Agency (RVO)
