EU Most Relevant Policy Initiatives
Green Paper (March 2006)
“A European Strategy for Sustainable, Competitive and Secure Energy”
Energy Package
EU targets by 2020 (20% - 20% - 20%):
SET - Plan to accelerate the development and implementation of low-carbon technologies
The Future of the Strategy with regard to the Outermost Regions - Brussels, 15 May 2008Note: document not legally binding 6
EU instruments
New instruments (SET Plan):
European Industrial Initiatives (bringing together resources and actors in a particular industrial sector)
European Energy Research Alliance (greater co-operation of research work in universities, research institutes, etc.)
Trans-European Energy Networks and Systems of the Future
European Energy Technology System
Steering Group on Strategic Energy Technologies

Proposed priority initiatives
• European Wind (on and off-shore applications)
• Solar Europe Initiative (PV and CSP)• Bio-energy Europe (next generation' biofuels
within an overall bio-energy use strategy)• European CO2 capture, transport and
storage (whole system requirements, including efficiency, safety and public acceptance)
• European electricity grid (smart electricity system, including storage)
• Sustainable nuclear fission (Generation-IV)

LEGEND:
- The size of each circle indicates the total energy potential of a given technology relatively to other technologies- The darker colour indicates the additional energy potential in comparison to the baseline
- Challenge for implementation indicates in relative terms how demanding is the deployment of a given technology with respect to other technologies within a similar time period
- The relative position of each technology on the time horizon axis indicates an approximate time period when the technology additional potential is expected to start being exploited
