30 Sustainable Development, Global Change and Ecosystem Sustainable Energy Systems Invitation to submit Expressions of Interest

31 Sustainable Development, Global Change and Ecosystem Invitation to submit Expressions of Interest (EoI) 2003  Only applicable to : FP6 Thematic Priority 6.1.ii - Sustainable Energy Systems, research activities having an impact in the medium and longer term (i.e. that part of the WP managed by DG RTD)  Open : 26 November 2003  Close : 19 March 2004 at 17.00 (Brussels time)  All details and forms : on CORDIS web-site at http://www.cordis.lu/eoi/sustdev-energy/

32 Sustainable Development, Global Change and Ecosystem Key features  Fixed format for all EoIs (on-line submission only) Internet form with drop-down boxes and fixed-length free text boxes (no EoI can exceed the given length)  Modifications possible Ability to make changes to an EoI right up to the closing date (instructions will be sent by e-mail after the initial EoI submission)  Simplified procedure Less onerous for EoI submitters than the 2001 EoI exercise  Wider scope EoI for IPs and NoEs are particularly welcome, as well as for STREPs and CAs  Feedback Publication of EC analysis and searchable EoI database in May 2004 (same website address). No individual feedback to submitters.

33 Sustainable Development, Global Change and Ecosystem EoI preparation  Guide for Submitters – contains scope, instructions, guidance and Help Desk details – PLEASE READ IT !  Management-level information required on: Potential impact and relevance (max 2000 characters) Scientific and technological objectives (max 2000 characters) Outline implementation plan (max 3000 characters) Envisaged consortium (max 2000 characters)  EoI is not a first stage proposal – much less information is needed; e.g. full details of the envisaged consortium are not required in an EoI  EoI submission is not obligatory, but is strongly encouraged – advantageous for both EoI submitters and the Commission

34 Sustainable Development, Global Change and Ecosystem Why submit an EoI ?  Visibility – a real opportunity to help identify priorities for the mid-term revision of the Work Programme and to influence the content of future calls for proposals.  Bottom-up exercise – all ideas welcome (if within the scope of the Specific Programme). All EoIs will be analysed by the Commission, assisted by independent experts.  Consortium building – all EoIs will be published in a searchable database (if the submitter agrees). Opens up possibilities for networking and will help to attract new partners.  Important note: submission of an EoI gives no preference to any proposer in subsequent calls. EoI can influence the content of the call, but not the outcome.
