Supporting the Finnish Presidency Conference on the European SET-Plan
In the context of the Work Programme for Secure, Clean and Efficient Energy (2018-2020), the EU-funded SET-Plan Helsinki project aims to support the Finnish Presidency Conference on the European Strategic Energy Technology Plan (SET-Plan). Within this scope, the 13th SET-Plan Conference took place on 13–15 November 2019 in Helsinki. This event was organised by the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Employment of Finland (TEM), the Prime Minister’s Office of Finland (VNK), the VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland Ltd (VTT) and the European Commission. The conference provided an excellent opportunity for decision makers, researchers and stakeholders to evaluate the progress made towards achieving the SET-Plan’s goals.
