Research notes: Basis: official call programming for Sep–Dec 2026 (prot. 3765/01-09-2026, ΑΔΑ ΨΧΡΟ7Λ6-ΗΦ9) and its 1st amendment (prot. 3957/16-09-2026, ΑΔΑ 9Τ0Ρ7Λ6-ΠΣ6): action 1vi.1, beneficiaries ‘Επιχειρήσεις’, €3,000,000, start Nov 2026, end Mar 2027. No pre-publication found on dytikiellada.gr as of 17/10/2026. STEP = Strategic Technologies for Europe Platform (Reg. (EU) 2024/795). Sizes and stage unknown (STEP calls can also admit larger firms), so left null. The same programming lists a €20m call for energy communities (action 2.ii.1, ‘Καινοτόμες μορφές κατανάλωσης’, Nov 2026–Mar 2027), not recorded here because its terms are unknown and it has slipped twice.
