Project description
Empowering sustainable and efficient energy use in industry
The EU-funded SET-IndEU project will establish a structured Secretariat to support the activities and results of the European Strategic Energy Technology Plan (SET Plan) Implementation Working Group on 'Sustainable and Efficient Energy Use in Industry' (IWG-Ind). This endeavour will foster the engagement of the European energy-intensive industry community, developing synergies and facilitating the alignment of European and national R&I sectorial priorities. The project will focus on process industries – a critical component of many value chains in several EU countries, essential for advancing a climate-neutral energy system and supporting the circular economy. Crucially, SET-IndEU will consider the evolving needs of the process industry, align research and innovation targets, and synchronise with emerging policy priorities.
Objective
The CSA Strategic Energy Technology for Industry in Europe (SET-IndEU) is responding to the call HORIZON-CL5-2022-D4-02-06, to propose a structured Secretariat for supporting and strengthening the activities and outcomes of the IWG6 on Energy Efficiency in Industry. The consortium will support the IWG6 to advance the monitoring and revision of the Action 6 Implementation Plan (IP) with the aim of reaching technology targets collectively across SET Plan countries making EU industry less energy, resource and emissions intensive and more competitive.
For that purpose, the future needs of the process industry, the R&I targets, and the emerging policy priorities will all be taken into consideration by engaging the IWG6 stakeholders in key activities with industrial and research associations and fora, specifically strengthening the relations, dialogue and exchange with the other SET Plan IWGs and the ETIPs.
