Why research at European level?

• Pooling and leveraging resources

– Resources are pooled to achieve critical mass

– Leverage effect on private investments

– Interoperability and complementarity of big science

• Fostering human capacity and excellence in S&T

– Stimulate training and international mobility of researchers

– Improve S&T capabilities

– Stimulate competition in research

• Better integration of European R&D

– Create scientific base for pan-European policy challenges

– Encourage coordination of national policies

– Effective comparative research at EU-level

– Efficient dissemination of research results

Why double the FP7 budget?

• Tackle under-investment by exerting leverage on national and private investment

– Increase EU spending on R&D : 1.97% of GDP vs 2.59% (US)

– Help leverage business R&D (EU wide projects, solutions and market)

– Brings EU public R&D spending to 0.96% of GDP (close to 1% target)

– Encourage Member States

Why double the FP7budget?

• Tackle fragmentation of research effort in the EU and enhance its efficiency and effectiveness

– Achieve critical mass, share knowledge and facilities

– Better dissemination across the EU

– More excellence through EU wide competition

– Less fragmentation through stronger coordination

What’s new ?

Main new elements compared to FP6:

• Annual budget doubled (EUR 5 billion ►10 billion)

• Basic research (~ EUR 1.5 billion per year)• Simplification of procedures• Logistical and administrative tasks

transferred to external structures

Dissemination of EU R&D results

• Need to strengthenthe diffusion and use of project outputs(industry, policy makers, standardization bodies, etc.)

• At project level, funding of :– Innovation-related activities within RTD projects : knowledge

protection and management, technology transfer, take-up by SMEs, etc.

– Assistance by external experts (as necessary)

• In all thematic areas :– Funding of networking initiatives, seminars, brokerage events (most

notably FP results)– Focused on specific fields or user groups

Directorate General for Energy and Transports

15

Dissemination of EU R&D results (2)

• Complementary actions under the new CIP :– Networks providing knowledge/technology transfer services (e.g.

Innovation Relay Centres)

– Assistance service for IPR management (in particular to participants in FP projects) (IPR-Helpdesk)

– Actions to foster innovation networks and innovation clusters

– Support to projects or programmes for the dissemination and take-up of innovative technologies

• CORDIS (dissemination of results, incl. “CORDIS Marketplace”)

CIP and the renewed Lisbon

• A more attractive place to invest and work• Knowledge and innovation are the beating

heart of European growth• Allowing our businesses to create more and

better jobs

Directorate General for Energy and Transports

23

Challenges

• The EU entrepreneurial spirit remains weak

• Europe lags behind the US in 10 out of 11 innovation indicators, particularly in investing in ICT

• Europe is not fully exploiting its potential in bringing to market environmentally-friendly technologies

Directorate General for Energy and Transports

24

Why CIP?

• Bring together EU programmes relevant to productivity, innovation, competitiveness

• Better impact, visibility and effectiveness• Common instruments for better synergies &

simplification• Principle of continuity• Autonomy in subprogrammes

Directorate General for Energy and Transports

25

Consultation messages

• Innovation and synergies with 7 FP RTD• SMEs should be transversal• Genuine integration between components• Take stock of what has been done• User friendly to enhance SME participation

The Intelligent Energy programme

• “SAVE” = Energy efficiency & rational use of resources– Specific measures in industry & buildings and for energy using

products; support legislative measures

• “ALTENER” = New & renewable energy sources– Energy Diversification; integrate new and renewable energy sources;

support legislative measures

• “STEER” = Energy in transport– Energy efficiency and diversification in transport, renewable fuels;

support legislative measures

The external dimension – Coopener – will continue, but in the frame of the international cooperation instruments

29

Intelligent Energy: the challenges

• EU’s Supply Security: external dependence at 50% (70% in 2030)

• Environment: CO2 emissions in 2030 can exceed those of 1990 by 14%– Energy consumption represents 94% of greenhouse gases

emissions;– Transport alone accounts for 90% of the increases of CO2

emissions
