ENTSO-E R&D Plan 2010

The launch of a public consultation on 11 January 2010 on the ENTSO-E R&D Plan was approved by the ENTSO-E General Assembly on 16 December 2009. The Consultation was closed on 22 February 2010 and this page provides you with the final results of the consultation as well as the finalized R&D plan.

The R&D plan document is one of the important deliverables of ENTSO-E. It is required by the Third Energy Package, both in Directive 72/2009 and in Regulation 714/2009, which underlines that ENTSO-E shall adopt a R&D plan as part of its Work Program 2009-2010.  Although Regulation 714/2009 Art 10 does not require ENTSO-E to conduct a formal consultation on the R&D Plan, ENTSO-E held a public consultation on the document from 11 January 2010 until 22 February 2010, with the expectation of receiving highly valuable stakeholder input to the document. The first edition of the ENTSO-E R&D Plan reflects the valuable input for the public consultation addressed by various stakeholders.

The consolidated ENTSO-E R&D Plan serves TSOs needs and contributes to the process launched by the European Commission for a Strategic Energy Technology (SET) Plan aiming at initiating a dialogue between the European TSOs, the European Regulatory Authorities, the EU Member States and the European Commission. This R&D Plan defines priority research fields as a basis for ENTSO-E's active participation, in line with the Strategic Energy Technology Plan of the European Union. It defines 14 base work streams addressing TSOs issues over the period 2010-2018.
