EMIRI Tech Talk on Batteries for Energy Storage - Overview of e-mobility in Europe

1. European Green Vehicles Initiative
Contractual PPP
Oscar Miguel Crespo,
EMIRI Tech Talk on Batteries for Energy Storage
February 23rd 2017 - Brussels

2. The EGVI PPP in Horizon 2020
December 2013: launch of the European Green Vehicles Initiative PPP
in Horizon 2020 involving the automotive, smart systems and smart
grids industries
Implemented by three ETPs (ERTRAC, EPoSS, SmartGrids) in order to:
► Deliver green vehicles and mobility system solutions matching major societal,
environmental and economic challenges ahead
► Impact on the innovative strength and global competitiveness of the European economy
Based on successful experience of the Green Cars Initiative:
► 3 pillars: Electrification, Long Distance transport, Logistics & Co-modality
► EU contribution to the initiative reached € 418 million – and a total budget of € 662
million
► 4 calls have been launched out of which 113 projects have been funded – gathering 1379
consortium partners (10,8% being SMEs)
► 2/3 of the budget has been dedicated to electrification

3. Help to reach the ambitious targets set by the EU transport, energy and climate
protection policies:
► the 20/20/20 targets on renewable energy use,
► the CO2 emissions regulation,
► the Euro emissions standards, contributing to air quality improvement
Support the policy goals of the EU Transport White Paper thanks to accelerated
research, development and demonstration of technologies.
Match the Grand Societal Challenges (e.g. decarbonisation, safety …) and the
transport needs.
Research, development and demonstration of technologies to enable more energy
efficient vehicles, strengthening the future competitiveness of the automotive
industry, following the CARS 2020 Strategy and contributing to the discussions of the
new GEAR 2030.
Align our objectives with the ones of the Energy Union Strategy and contribute to
diversify and strengthen energy options for sustainable transport (SET-Plan Action 7)
