Be a part of the R&D and innovation ecosystem, shape future technologies, and seize collaboration opportunities through all the advantages and opportunities provided by GIS!

As part of the World Bank-supported Turkey Green Industry Project, coordinated by the Ministry of Industry and Technology, TÜBİTAK-TEYDEB supports private sector product or process development activities for green transformation. The 2026 first call for the 1832-coded Green Transformation in Industry Program, part of the 1801-coded Reimbursable and Grant Support Program for Industrial R&D Projects, has been launched.

This call will support R&D activities in the TRL 3-9 range for companies' green transformation efforts. Projects are expected to primarily focus on technology validation studies aimed at commercialization, such as developing a new prototype for technologies that have progressed beyond the conceptual stage, further development or improvement work on an existing R&D prototype, or testing to validate or approve the prototype. Scaling up the developed technology or prototype is mandatory. Studies initiated before TRL 3 are considered basic research, while studies initiated at TRL 8, where a significant portion of the R&D process has already been completed, are excluded from this call.

Applications are open to both SMEs and large-scale organizations, and joint applications are also possible. Capital companies will receive interest-free repayable support, with a maximum repayment rate of 50%. The support rate is 70% for large-scale companies, 80% for SMEs, and 90% for SMEs in earthquake zones. Repayment of the support will begin one year after the project ends. For the full amount (100%) of the repayable support requested from TÜBİTAK, a Bank Reference Letter must be submitted during the application phase and a Guarantee Letter during the contract phase.

This call includes several significant changes that differentiate it from previous calls:

* The limitation of a maximum of 2 World Bank-supported projects per organization has been removed, and an organization-based budget tracking system has been implemented. Organizations can receive support for more than 2 projects, provided they do not exceed the program-specific upper limits determined according to their scale. Organizations that have previously received support under the program will be able to see their remaining limits under the 1832 program during the new project application process via PRODİS.

* The Green Transformation R&D and Innovation topics defining the scope of the call have been expanded. Submitted projects are expected to fall under one of the following topics:

o Climate Change, Environment and Biodiversity

o Clean and Circular Economy

o Clean, Accessible and Secure Energy Supply

o Green and Sustainable Agriculture

o Sustainable Smart Transportation

* The requirement that submitted projects must be a continuation of a previous R&D study has been removed. Organizations can submit a new project application without associating it with any previous project.

* The scope of R&D studies, previously THS 5-9, has been expanded to THS 3-9. With this, the THS completion level is expected to be at least THS 7. Scaling up is mandatory.

* The additional 20% grant support given to successfully completed projects has been abolished.

We would like to remind applicant organizations that they must have at least one staff member with a bachelor's degree in a field related to the project topic in order to apply to this call.
