Policy Department A: Economic and Scientific Policy ____________________________________________________________________________________________ The Commission has a policy of technological neutrality in the field of energy – providing the technology is “low-carbon” – which it can uphold sufficiently well at the macro-level without needing to ensure that it strictly applies at the level of every specific R&D&I instrument. With CCS and renewables both a part of the EEPR and NER300, that seems not have applied here. 3.4. Technology transfer from the lab to the market Europe produces useful, high quality results from publicly-funded research projects in renewable energy technologies. But Europe also faces difficulties in the way it transforms these results into commercial applications. The phenomenon has a name: the “European Paradox”. Research institutions should be assisted in acquiring or accessing to the technical, legal, managerial and financial expertise necessary to successfully commercialise their R&D outputs. Today the majority of European research centres have their own technology transfer office (TTO), however not all TTOs offer the same quality of support for the valorisation of research results. In order to favour knowledge and technology transfer to the regional industrial system, particularly to SMEs, it is critical to provide answers to the relatively large capital needs which too often inhibit the market uptake of innovative energy technologies. Despite the launch of new initiatives such as JEREMIE and JESSICA (co-managed by the EIB, EIF and European Commission), more work lies ahead in improving access to finance for new business ventures springing from work of European laboratories. 3.5. Balance European-level demonstration and research funding The EEPR and NER300 are both tools for large-scale demonstration, and half of the Framework Programme’s money for non-nuclear energy has to go towards projects with a “predominant demonstration component”. The purpose of EIIs, as framed in the SET Plan, also alludes to scale. It makes sense, in some cases, for decisions to fund demos to be made at European level. It was the desire to demonstrate a set of permutations of CCS capture, transport and storage technology that covered all the known and potentially commercially-viable options that lay behind the Commission’s insistence for projects to be selected as a group. For technologies with lower unit costs, European co-ordination is less important, because it can be advantageous to have the same technology demonstrated in parallel in similar circumstances in different places in order to familiarise different workforces with it in anticipation of commercial-scale deployments, and to supply the industry with more data on the technology’s performance. The danger of making demonstration too great a part of Europe’s mission in R&D&I is that industry, which undertakes demonstration work, will be given too much control over the R&D&I agenda overall, even those parts that it is not willing to co-fund to a significant degree, such as high-risk research in technologies that are non-bankable. Industry should be involved in discussions about an energy sector’s medium- and long-term strategy and about performance targets that must be reached, but research centres should have the ear of public funding agencies when it comes to deciding what to support in a particular call and how to support it. If companies are allowed into these discussions, the temptation to lobby for funding to be directed towards projects that will give them a head-start in the short term might be irresistible.
