Adopted the new Strategic Energy Technology (SET) Plan

Oct 05, 2015

The upgraded SET Plan is the first research and innovation deliverable on which the fifth dimension of the Energy Union will be built.

Building on an integrated approach going beyond technology silos, the upgraded SET Plan proposes ten focused research and innovation actions to accelerate the energy system's transformation and create jobs and growth, ensuring the European Union's leadership in the development and deployment of low-carbon energy technologies.

These actions will contribute to achieve the research and innovation objectives of the Energy Union to: become the global leader in renewable energy; facilitate consumer participation and accelerate the progress to a smart energy system; develop and reinforce energy efficient systems; diversify and strengthen options for sustainable transport; drive ambition in carbon capture and storage deployment; and increase safety in the use of nuclear energy.
