Accelerating Climate Efforts and Investments (ACE) project supports the objectives of the LIFE program by strengthening capacities, encouraging investments, developing, demonstrating, and promoting innovative climate change mitigation solutions, participating in the creation of a knowledge base, and disseminating and applying best practices. The project’s most significant positive environmental impacts result from the ACE LIFE consortium’s low-carbon investments, which target low-emission logistics and machinery, electrification of industrial processes, and the development of plant-based protein and peat production value chains.
The tender processes carried out within the ACE LIFE project adhere to the principles of fairness, transparency, and equality. Thanks to a non-discriminatory approach, bids are evaluated based on their merits and their alignment with the stated requirements.
This page will announce the project’s upcoming, ongoing, and past procurements.
