ESTEP's Strategic Research Agenda
A vision for the future of the steel sector
The Strategic Research Agenda (the SRA) of the European Steel Technology Platform (Vision 2030) is the outcome of a consensus among all stakeholders and expresses the ambition and the long-term vision of the whole steel sector. The SRA addresses the main RTD themes and research areas of the sector for the short-, mid- and long-term and presents a time frame for the whole sector. It includes a deployment strategy, mechanisms to mobilise private and public funding as well as a communication strategy.
The original SRA was prepared by the Support Group following and was officially endorsed by the ESTEP Steering Committee in December 2004. The SRA was updated in 2012.
