Barriers-solutions-opportunities
Invest in demand driven research Invest in the Clean Tech companies presenting low Life
Cycle Cost Technologies Demo installations should be supported Customers demanding solutions exceeding the capacity of
the product/company System solutions-new combinations- need of regulation-
need of new business models More than well-developed technology is needed to sell
efficiently Co-operate more between companies, countries and
continents

Global demand driven research and dissemination. Financing. Early stages and first installation. More life cycle cost
driven approaches. Demonstration sites boost the interest from academia, applied
researchers, SMEs , large companies , investors and the customers. To be member of one or more network is important. Governments (legislation, labelling, BAT, standards) and political
leadership should promote the sustainable infrastructure investments in developing countries.
SMEs and large companies from different countries can better compete on the world market when they co-operate.
European countries will be more resource efficient if we co-operate in the export to the BRIC countries. (No business without finding the customer)
Establish strategic research co-operation with BRIC countries.
