The whole spectrum from fundamental research to applied research and demonstration activities is covered.

A special focus is on international cooperation where, for the first time, Marie-Curie-type researchers exchange actions with the US and Japan are supported.

The great majority of the FP7 Energy topics are in line with the Implementation Plans of the Industrial Initiatives of the SET-Plan.

Energy research is also supported in other FP7 Themes and Programmes. For an indicative overview of all potential energy-relevant topics please click here ( 91 KB) .
