3. FP7 /3 EUROPEAN COMMISSION – Research DG La Energia Hoy dia La energia soporta toda actividad economica. El ciudadano Europeo ha estado acostumbrado a un suministro de energia barata, abundante y segura. En el presente, existe una preocupacion creciente por la influencia del uso de la energía en el Cambio Climático A principios del año pasado, en un escenario de gran aumento de los precios del petroleo, los incidentes sobre la interrupcion del suministro de gas a la Union Europea trajeron bruscamente a la atención de la opinion publica las debilidades del sistema de Energia de la UE, en particular la inseguridad de suministro de los productos energéticos. Consecuencia de esto, la Energia es hoy un tema de preocupación a nivel Europeo, ocupa un puesto de relevancia en la agenda política Europea y es objeto de una gran actividad a nivel político en la UE

4. FP7 /4 EUROPEAN COMMISSION – Research DG La Energía en la UE Se prevee que la demanda de energia global aumentará un 60% en los proximos 30 años La dependencia del exterior de la UE puede aumentar del 50% presente al 65% para el 2030; volatilidad de los precios del petroleo y potencial inestabilidad geo-politica de los suministradores Mas del 80% de las emisiones de CO2, causa del cambio climatico, causados por la energia; los modelos disponibles muestran que no se cumplirá con el objetivo de Kyoto ni con el de las energias renovables para el 2010 Se preveen mas de 12 trillones de inversiones en el campo de la energia a nivel global para el 2030 – enorme mercado potencial, pero la UE ante una seria competencia de los otros bloques comerciales El escenario Business as usual no es sostenible

45. FP7 /45 EUROPEAN COMMISSION – Research DG Towards a European Strategic Energy Technology Plan Structural weaknesses in the energy innovation system Long lead times Locked-in infrastructure investment Market failure (Stern Report) Dominant actors and network connection challenges Scattered and un-coordinated market incentives (e.g. innovation programmes) Reduction of Energy research funds Scattered, fragmented and sub-critical capacities Strong international competition and weak cooperation « Business as usual » is not an option, we must change the way we produce, distribute and use energy The development of technology is a key driver for putting our energy system on a sustainable path

46. FP7 /46 EUROPEAN COMMISSION – Research DG Towards a European Strategic Energy Technology Plan Annual investment by Commission of 1 billion between 2007 and 2013 in energy technology research and innovation. The EU must act jointly and urgently: Higher cooperation between Member States and with industry, TPs only a small part of the solution Find the right balance between competition and international cooperation Adapt policy instruments to technology needs: Different Horses for different courses Mobilise more resources to accelerate market deployment of the key promising technologies. The process starts now. First SET plan to be adopted by end of 2007 after open consultation

47. FP7 /47 EUROPEAN COMMISSION – Research DG The Strategic Energy Technology Plan(2) The Strategic Energy Technology Plan must embrace not only research and innovation, but also the policy framework required to encourage business to deliver the low-emission technologies of the future. In addition to confirming the diversified portfolio strategy for the short-medium term, the Plan will need to identify those 'strategic' technologies for which it is vital that Europe as a whole finds a different and better way of mobilising resources to accelerate their development and deployment – large-scale, integrated European actions. This is not a 'picking winners' approach, but a recognition that different technologies within the portfolio face different challenges and barriers and are likely to be brought to commercialisation with different time horizons. In this respect, it is crucial that we do not focus exclusively on near-to-market technologies to achieve short-term policy goals.
