ECMWF EMI R&D Projects applications - 30 June deadline is close!

ECMWF Special Projects have been renamed to European Meteorological Infrastructure Research and Development Projects (EMI R&D Projects).

From 2024 EMI R&D Projects, beside the HPC resources, also have the access to the operational European Weather Cloud service. 

EMI R&D Projects are defined as 'experiments or investigations of a scientific or technical nature, likely to be of interest to the general scientific community'.

Users within one of ECMWF's Member or Co-operating States may apply for resources as a  EMI R&D Project. This possibility is particularly, but not exclusively, suitable for projects which are undertaken in co-operation between several institutions, nationally or internationally.

If you are interested in this service, please indicate your resource requirements and add a section outlining your intended usage to your EMI R&D Projects request.

For further information on this opportunity and to submit the applications, see: The EMI R&D Projects application page.

If you miss the 30 June deadline, you could still submit a "late request" via the dedicated form as soon as you can, but the total amount of accessible resources might be limited in size.

If you have any questions before submitting the application, please email special_projects@ecmwf.int.
