The TEN-TaNS project has made a searchable database of the results of the 2104 CEF Annual and Multi-annual calls for the North Sea Region. The dataset is as published by INEA and covers the 280 TEN-T project applications to the CEF which have included a partner from one or more of Denmark, Sweden, Germany, Belgium, The Netherlands, and The United Kingdom (Norway was not involved in any application).
Although the project operation was supposed to close in June 2015 the TEN-TaNS team have decided to keep the project live at their own expense - with the amount of positive feedback we have had this website is clearly an in-demand resource so we will actively maintain it for the rest of 2015 at least...... more exciting resouces will be loaded soon so check back on the "news" page
