1. Outlook to FP7 Call3 in Energy Siegfried Loicht Division for European and International Programmes (EIP) Austrian Research Promotion Agency (FFG)

2. FP7 Energy Information & Partnering Day 2 July 2008, Vienna - Austria 2 Outlook Energy Work Programme 2009 Status of Work-Programme: DRAFT (latest version 23/04/08) to be discussed in Programme Committee and EC Estimated publication date: Expected September 2008 Approach for 2009:  Effort in this work programme focuses on technologies identified in the SET-Plan as key challenges for the next 10 years. This means that second generation biofuels (in particular biorefineries), CO2 capture and storage, solar energy, offshore wind and smart electricity grids have an important part. Draft

3. FP7 Energy Information & Partnering Day 2 July 2008, Vienna - Austria 3 Specifics of Work Programme 2009 SME relevant research fields:  Efficiency and material issues for thin-film photovoltaics  Biowaste as feedstock for 2nd generation  Sustainable Biorefineries  High density /rapid release energy storage International cooperation in topics (e.g.):  Efficiency and material issues for thin-film photovoltaics  Biowaste as feedstock for 2nd generation  Innovative capture techniques  Safe and reliable geological storage of CO2  Towards an infrastructure for CO2 transport and storage Topics with cross thematic approaches:  Biorefineries, wind/ocean energy conversion  non-food aquatic biomass feedstock for 2nd generation biofuels Draft

8. FP7 Energy Information & Partnering Day 2 July 2008, Vienna - Austria 8 Scientific and technical quality Limited innovation Not beyond commercial practices Not entirely addressing the topic priorities Insufficient demonstration part Insufficient quality of the concept and work plan Lessons learned from Call1 Frequent weaknesses of proposals (1/3) Source: European Commission

9. FP7 Energy Information & Partnering Day 2 July 2008, Vienna - Austria 9 Lessons learned from Call1 Frequent weaknesses of proposals (2/3) Implementation Unclear complementarity of consortium partners Unclear experience of some partners Insufficiently justified presence of partners Inappropriate management structure Too large consortia (keep consortia to minimum size necessary) Inappropriate resources allocation / justification Source: European Commission

10. FP7 Energy Information & Partnering Day 2 July 2008, Vienna - Austria 10 Impact Limited monitoring and dissemination foreseen No significant impact No significant replication potential No significant European added value Lack of involvement of industrial partners General Unstructured text, difficult to read Unclear /incomplete information Lessons learned from Call1 Frequent weaknesses of proposals (3/3) Source: European Commission
