The European Commission argues that the deployment and promotion of renewable energy technologies is sufficiently catered for in the IEE programme (see section 2.4.2). However Eco-innovation and IEE finance different kinds of activity. Only the Eco-innovation scheme can fund the first application or market replication of eco-innovative techniques, products or practices that have been successfully demonstrated, but due to remaining risks need further incentives before they can significantly penetrate the market. As a consequence, innovative SMEs concerned with the commercialisation of renewable energy solutions do not have access to this funding scheme. The European Commission provides support for innovation professionals through the Eco- innovation Platform (also known as Eco-IP), but access to Eco-IP is de facto restricted to SMEs active in the sectors of Bio-Based Products, water and wastewater, and recycling. Opening up the Eco-innovation budget line and the Eco-IP to renewable energy SMEs would be a logical step towards comprehensively supporting these companies. 2.4.2. Intelligent Energy Europe (IEE) The 2007-2013 Intelligent Energy Europe (IEE) programme forms part of the CIP. Its total budget of €730 million is used to support European projects funded with annual calls for proposals. It has proved successful at developing business models for energy efficiency and the rational use of energy, promoting new and renewable energy technologies and energy diversification, and reducing energy consumption in transport, thereby making Europe more “energy intelligent”. Although IEE is mainly an instrument for tackling non-technological barriers, synergies shall be sought with the energy-related European Technology Platforms and in particular with reference to the Strategic Research Agendas and Deployment Roadmaps (and in future EII Implementation Plans). In operational terms, the traditional structure of the IEE programme which is based on three main funding areas – SAVE, ALTENER and STEER - is progressively moving towards a 4-pillar model. More budget is being allocated to other projects called Integrated Initiatives66, which include, for example, capacity building in local authorities . In pursuing this approach, care must be taken not to divert the programme from its core purpose of promoting and fostering renewable energy sources and energy efficiency.. Although open to both public and private organisations, the beneficiaries of IEE funds are usually public bodies and associations. Under the current regime, renewable energy SMEs are therefore unlikely to see their projects supported by either IEE or the Eco-innovation scheme. In the past years over a dozen IEE-funded projects promoted energy efficiency and renewable energy among primary and secondary school students and teachers, however we are not aware of any projects aiming at the tertiary education sector. The renewable energy industry is expanding rapidly, putting the sector under pressure to find new skilled workers. As highlighted also in a recent European Parliament report67, Member States must adapt their training and education systems to ensure that the workforce is equipped with the skills for a sustainable economy. By encouraging the exchange of experience and know- how between universities, research centres and industry from the renewable energy sector, 66 The budget allocated to these initiatives rose from 21,9 MEUR in 2008 to 29,4 in 2010 (calculation based on data of the official Work Programmes 2008 and 2010 of the IEE programme) 67 Draft report on “Job potential in the new sustainable economy”, European Parliament’s Committee on Employment and Social Affairs, Rapporteur: Elisabeth Schroedter (15.04.2010) IP/A/ITRE/ST/2009-11 & 12 142 PE 440.278PDF Image | Policy Department Renewable Technologies
