European Industrial Initiatives

European Industrial Initiatives:

European Wind Initiative

Solar Europe Initiative

Bio-energy Europe Initiative

European Electricity Grid Initiative

European CO2 capture, transport and storage initiative

Sustainable fission initiative (Gen IV)

Smart Cities (new)

On-going initiatives:

Fuel cells and hydrogen (JTI)

Fusion (ITER)

Launched the first four EIIs (3 June 2010)

Wind, Solar, CCS and Electricity Grids EIIs

Joint Statement supported by the public (EC, MS) and private

side (relevant industry)

All parties committed to support:

- Technology Roadmaps 2010-2020

- Implementation Plans 2010-2012

- Light and non-bureaucratic governance structure

European Industrial Initiatives

Sustainable Nuclear and Bioenergy EIIs

Launch foreseen at the SET Plan Conference in Brussels, 15-

16 November 2010, under the Belgian Presidency

Smart Cities EII in the phase of developing the concept

Taking stock during the SET Plan Conference in Brussels, 15-

16 November 2010, under the Belgian Presidency

Launch foreseen in 2011

European Industrial Initiatives

Technology Roadmaps (1)

Technological objectives Concrete action plans Estimated

investments needed for the period 2010-2020 to achieve:

Up to 20% of the EU electricity produced by wind energy

Up to 15% of the EU electricity produced by solar energy

50% of networks operate along “smart principle” effectively matching supply

and demand

At least 14% of the EU energy mix from cost-competitive, sustainable bio-

energy

CCS technologies become cost-competitive within a carbon-pricing environment

by 2020-2025

First Generation-IV nuclear reactor prototypes in operation by 2020, allowing

commercial deployment by 2040

25 to 30 European cities will be at the forefront of the transition to a low carbon

economy

Implementation Plans 2010 – 2012 of the Electricity Grids, Solar, Wind and CCS available

Coordination between the Electricity Grids Initiative other EIIs

to ensure:

1. All necessary new requirements concerning grid integration of low-

carbon energy sources are addressed

2. RD&D activity overlaps between the initiatives are minimized

Coordination with Solar and Wind Initiatives

Cooperation launched with other initiatives (Storage,

Electric Car, Smart Buildings)

Implementation Plans 2010 - 2012

Light and non-bureaucratic governance

EII governance: three levels of intervention:

Orientation level - SET-Plan Steering Group

Planning and programming level - EII Team

Implementation and operational level – in which activities

and projects are carried out

Initiative by a number of leading research institutes (October

2008):

Total annual turnover approx 1,300 M€

Over 10,000 scientists

Aim: accelerate development of new energy technologies through

Joint Programmes (JPs):

Strengthen, expand and optimise research capabilities

Harmonisation of national and EC programme

Decrease fragmentation

Launch of the first 4 JPs in June 2010 on PV, Smart Grids, CCS and

geothermal

European Energy Research Alliance

Strong EU institutional support : Adoption of two documents related to the Communication “Investing in the development of low carbon technologies (SET-Plan)“ - COM(2009)519:

1. European Parliament Resolution - 11 March 2010

2. Energy Council Conclusions - 12 March 2010

support the implementation of the SET Plan

support the TRs 2010-2020 as the basis to move forward

collectively

underline the growing importance of international cooperation

But we need a shared effort from EU, MSs, Industry and financial community to successfully implement them

Conclusion

Thank you for your attention

ETS NER 300 (2)

NER300 Cost financing

NER 300 can finance up to 50% of relevant costs

= extra investment costs + extra operating costs – extra operating benefits

Remaining 50 % financed by promoter, MS concerned (incl. use of SF) or both

NER300 can be combined with SF, EEPR and RSFF.

MS

Evaluates eligibility criteria

& decides on possible co-

financing
