17. E NERGY M ATERIALS I NDUSTRIAL R ESEARCH I NITIATIVE 17 We believe that the SET Plan is an exciting concept for the following reasons: It identifies one of the essential challenges for society as well as an integrated vision for solutions It provides a fabric for European research and industry actors to work together more effectively as a coherent whole, better able to compete in a highly aggressive global environment More effective use of resources at a European scale that avoid unnecessary duplication of intellectual efforts and infrastructure will allow to go beyond critical mass to support cutting edge research and innovation programmes The SET Plan Materials road map highlights the necessity and desirability for a cross cutting enabling capability organised on a European scale for advanced energy materials applications EMIRI – Bridging the innovation gap for energy materials – Aahrus, 20 th June 2012

18. E NERGY M ATERIALS I NDUSTRIAL R ESEARCH I NITIATIVE 18 There are many synergies between applications for different materials. Organising materials research and development on a cross-cutting basis makes sense to be more effective and further enhance the level of excellence and strength of the sector.

31. E NERGY M ATERIALS I NDUSTRIAL R ESEARCH I NITIATIVE 31 1.EMIRI is an implementaion mechanism that will provide guidance, focus, direction and commitment to achieve commercially successful value addded materials programmes for energy technologies. 2.Europe has a world class materials industry able to compete on a global scene, but today materials are not sufficiently emphasised at EU level and we need to close this gap. 3.Early inclusion of industry in an R&D programme provides a better guarantee of having a final material/product fit for market and deployment. 4.EMIRI is industry driven, EU in scope and will bring economic value, scientific leadership and employment as well as particpating in resolving two of society’s key future challenges (i.e. climate change and access to sustainable affordable energy). 5.EMIRI is inclusive, i.e. EMIRI will be working with all interested parties to ensure a successful implementation of the SET plan materials road map for the success of the EU industry and EU competitiveness.
