Eligible projects are thus also those that are expected to make a major contribution to solving environmental problems and cannot be assigned to any of the funding topics listed below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Funding is provided for environmental protection projects that comply with the statutes and are characterized by a high environmental impact. Ideas with a technical basis whose success in implementation does not appear to be sufficiently certain can be funded, as can projects aimed at disseminating exemplary, novel solutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Eligible applicants include, but are not limited to:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Research, development and innovation in the field of environmental and health-friendly processes and products;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>the exchange of knowledge about the environment between science, industry and other public or private bodies, as well as projects to communicate knowledge about the environment;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>the preservation and restoration of the national natural heritage.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>As a rule, the following are not eligible:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Apps and digital platforms that serve exclusively to fulfill the Supply Chain Duty of Care Act, CSR reporting,
