EUROGIA2020 within EUREKA
 The EUREKA cluster dedicated to low-carbon energy
technologies
 Includes the full energy mix and value chain
 Renewables, Efficiency, Carbon Capture and Storage…
 Received a renewed mandate (2013 to 2020 – after 2008-2013) to
award the Eureka/Eurogia2020 label to RD&D low-carbon energy
technologies projects.
 EUROGIA2020 promotes and facilitates partnerships between
industrials companies and researchers across EUREKA member
and associated countries

EUROGIA2020 Technology Domains
Cost effective Energy Sources EnablingTechnologies*
• Geothermal
• Solar
• Wind Power
• Biomass
• Hydro Power
• Waves andTides
• Oil & Gas
• Clean Coal
• Energy Efficiency
• Energy Storage
• Intelligent networks and energy
management
• CO2 mitigation (CCS & valorization)

*The list is not exhaustive
 EUROGIA2020 encourages partnerships between competencies
covering a large spectrum of disciplines and the entire energy mix

6. The EUREKA Cluster for low-carbon energy technologies
A member of the EUREKA network
A process designed by industry for
industry: Light, Fast, Interactive
 Continuous submission with 4 cut-off dates/year. No need to
wait for a suitable call
 2-step process (PO and FPP) avoids unnecessary work
 A good project can be funded in 6 months
 No competition between similar projects; quality of your
own project is what counts
 Funding success about 80% for labelled projects
 Project enrichment/improvement through
extensive/continuous feedback and access to the Eurogia+
network
 But parallel applications in each country in addition to global
Eurogia2020 application; and synchronisation of funding
from each country not always achieved.
