Policy Department A: Economic and Scientific Policy ____________________________________________________________________________________________ 3.Looking ahead to FP8 : further options for EU R&D&I policies in this field KEY FINDINGS • Technologies for heating and cooling from renewable energy are of strategic importance to Europe • Use of explicit Technology Readiness Indicators by the Commission will enable observers to keep track of how it is targeting its resources at different parts of the innovation pipeline • Support schemes must be appropriately fashioned for the technical risk of the project they are targeting. Mistakes were made with NER300. • Support technologies over the “Valley of Death” with European-level funding if there is a clear European added-value in doing so. Europe’s main strength is in facilitating transnational collaborative R&D. • Restrict industry’s influence on the programming of research in medium and high- risk projects, and give the research community views priority here • Technology transfer: further measures should be implemented at EU level to support Europe’s renewable energy research centres and technology developers effectively exploiting the research results. 3.1. More renewable energy technologies should be included in the SET Plan The SET Plan Communication from the Commission of November 2007 identified 6 areas as being ripe for European Industrial Initiatives (wind, solar, bioenergy, smart grids, nuclear and CCS) and the Council, in its Conclusions, urged the Commission to consider 3 more (marine, energy efficiency, energy storage). The Commission’s rationale for choosing the technologies that it did were that they faced “barriers”, “scales of investment” and carried “risk” that can “be better tackled [jointly by the Community, Member States and industry]”. By those criteria, key technologies have been marginalised, specifically those for heating and cooling with renewable energy, where the Commission only could confirm in its “Investing in the Development of Low Carbon Technologies” Communication (October 2009) that it is “examining” the inclusion of such technologies. The case for including them is solid, and they could be promoted at short order by explicitly making them part of the Smart Cities Initiative, which aims to introduce energy efficiency concepts (at component- level and urban-planning level) into the fabric of our cities. Uncommitted money from the European Energy Programme for Recovery could be redirected towards the Initiative, requiring the appropriate legislation to be adopted before the end of 2010. 3.2. Make greater use of “TRL” indicators “TRL” stands for Technology Readiness Level, and is a means to categorise how far from commercial deployment a particular family of technologies is, or indeed a member within that family. It is expressed as a quantity between 1 and 9. Gradations of TRL are grouped below. Only at TRL 8 and 9 can a technology be described as bankable: IP/A/ITRE/ST/2009-11 & 12 144 PE 440.278
