Economic
and efficient energy for a competitive Europe
Whatever the source, the more efficient production and
use of energy is essential for industry, society and the environment.

| This
key action aims to provide Europe with a reliable, clean, efficient,
safe and economic supply of energy. Technologies will be developed
to substantially reduce both the overall cost of energy and the
amount of energy needed by industry and society. Research will contribute
to improved efficiency and reduced costs throughout the energy cycle
- production, storage, distribution and final use - with the energy
requirements of the built environment, transport and industry sectors
being a particular focus. Areas targeted will therefore range from
the extraction of fossil fuels to the deployment of renewable energies,
from intelligent energy networks to the socio-economic aspects of
supply and demand. |
