20. Renewables in FP7 • Overall goals for 2010: • 12% of renewable energy sources in the energy mix • 21% of green electricity • 5.75% of alternative transport fuel • FP7 Challenges: • drive down the cost for production and storage • increase overall conversion efficiency • increase the share of carbon-neutral fuels for transport and electricity generation 1st Call Renewable electricity Generation PV; hydro-power; ocean; wind; biomass; geothermal; CSP Biomass; bio-refinery; solar radiation; demonstration for transport 1st Call Renewable fuel production 1st Call Renewables for heating and cooling Low/medium temperature solar thermal energy; geothermal energy

21. International cooperation All activities out in the Energy Theme are open to researchers and research institutions from third countries (International Cooperation Partner Countries (ICPC), see list of countries in Annex of the WP) Implementation via two mechanisms: 1. The call topics will indicate whether there is a particular relevance for the participation of ICPC. 2. A series of “Specific International Cooperation Actions” (SICA) will be available. These activities could have specific rules for participation (see the topic description in the Workprogramme). 1st Call CSP for water desalination; biofuels production in Latin America; zero emission power generation (China); energy technology transfer (emerging economies, EU neighboring and developing countries)
