Scaling up research, innovation and competitiveness in clean energy technologies
Published on the occasion of the 2024 Strategic Energy Technology Plan (SET Plan) conference in Budapest, Hungary, this report highlights the SET Plan’s role in coordinating EU and national research and innovation (R&I) agendas for the development and deployment of efficient and cost-competitive clean energy technologies to drive Europe’s green and digital transition. 2024 has seen a revision of the SET Plan, aligning its strategic objectives with the evolving European energy policy landscape. The SET Plan’s role has been reinforced in the frame of the Net-Zero Industry Act, and its Steering Group elevated in legal status. This new legal anchoring is expected to help the SET Plan to strengthen Europe’s industrial leadership in low-carbon technologies by increasing cooperation between policymakers, industry, academia, research institutes and public and private investors. The SET Plan’s stakeholders are at its heart. Drawing extensively on their input, this report offers an overview of their recent work, their challenges, and their opportunities for growth.
