3. EU and Space 1 Dec 2009 • Treaty of Lisbon (Article 189 TFEU) gives EU shared competence in the fields of space • to promotescientific and technical progress and industrial competitiveness and the implementation of its policies • shall draw up a European space policy • by joint initiatives, support RTD, coordinate efforts in exploration and exploitation

4. The Multiannual Financial Framework 2014-2020: Commission’s proposals 29 June 2011 • 1. Smart & inclusive growth (€491bn) • 2. Sustainable growth, natural resources (€383bn) • 3. Security and citizenship (€18.5bn) • 4. Global Europe (€70bn) • 5. Administration (€62.6bn) Key challenge: stabilise the financial and economic system while taking measures to create economic opportunities Horizon 2020 Education, Youth, Sport Connecting Europe Cohesion Competitive Business SMEs Total: € 1,025bn

5. Investment in R&D is part of the solution: Growth and jobs

6. FP7 => H2020 Space funding 126M € of 330M€ 1400 Meuro SSF R&D Space in H2020 Services GMES data GMES Operational Programme GMES Infrastructure GMES = Global Monitoring for Environment and Security

7. European Commission Proposal Infrastructures 2802 M€ Space 1737 M€ ~240 M€/y

8. Outline • Context: FP7 and Horizon 2020 • Final call FP7: opportunities for planetary sciences • Next: definition of Horizon 2020

9. FP7-Space Space-based applications at the service of the European Society(principally GMES) 85% R&D strengthening Space foundations 9.2 Cross-cuttingissues

10. SSF topics - highlighhts • Continuation of space science data topic, but addition of new topic of « Earth analogue » research • Critical Technologies topic is back after being absent for 1 call, with strengthened budget of €20m • Focus on space debris issues, including support for an active debris removal demonstration project

11. Space science and exploration • Exploiting data obtained in space – with EU missions or instruments (in particular that available at ESAC) • Open to many areas (space physics, astrobiology, planetary science, astronomy, astrophysics, health, etc.) • Adding value to data by combining space mission data with non-space data • New data handling tools – e.g. visualisation • Earth analogue R&D – technology test, system approaches and strategies for search for life, human performance in space • Enhancing/broadening research partnerships 8 x 2.5M€

12. “Critical Technologies for European non-dependence ” “Non-dependence”: possibility for Europe to have free, unrestricted access to any required space technology. Joint EC-ESA-EDA task force on Critical Technologies has defined a revised list of urgent actions. Proposals should address topics from this list of 17 items. Space technologies Projects should aim to go beyond current state of art, development activities up to space qualification favoured 8 x 2.5M€

13. Reducing vulnerability of space infrastructure • Space weather threats: • accurate modeling and impact assessment on affected systems, particularly GNSS • Modelling collision interactions of micro-particles with satellites • Development of mitigation means • Debris collision threats: • Performing an in-orbit removal of debris, demonstrating concepts and technologies for active debris removal, scalable for future use 2 x 2M€ 7M€

14. FP7-Space Space-based applications at the service of the European Society(principally GMES) R&D strengthening Space foundations Cross-cutting issues 9.3

15. Cross-cutting Activities • SME specific research Allow SMEs to develop partnerships for both GMES and SSF, establishing SME role in value added chain • International Cooperation • With Ukraine GMES services for agricultural needs Super-lightweight materials and coatings Space debris removal methods/technologies • With China Validation and refinement of monitoring of air quality 5 x 2M€ 3 x 2M€

16. Call is open at the moment • ec.europa.eu/embrace-space • http://ec.europa.eu/research/participants/portal/page/home • 21 November 2012 deadline • Dec-Feb 2012/2013 evaluation by REA • Proposal negotiation in 2013

17. Outline • Context: FP7 and Horizon 2020 • Final call FP7: opportunities for planetary sciences • Next: definition of Horizon 2020

18. Industrial Leadership • Leadership in enabling and industrial technologies • ICT • NMP • Biotechnology • Access to risk finance Space programme ~240 M€/yr (similar to ESA RTD programmes, or National space RTD programmes combined) • Space • 1737 M€ KETs Innovationin SMEs NMP= Nanotechnologies, advanced materials and advanced manufacturing and processing

19. Objective for Space in Horizon 2020 Prepare for the increasing role of space in the future andreap the benefits of space now

20. Four specific objectives • Enhance competitiveness, non-dependence, and innovation of EU space sector (= industry and research community) • Enable advances in space technologies • Increase exploitation of space data • Enable participation in international space partnerships + relevant space applications under Societal Challenges • Transport, Climate, Security

21. Non-exhaustive list of potential topics In-orbit demonstration Objectives and activity topics Specific objectives Analogue terrains Competitiveness Non-dependence Innovation Space/non-space TD Space environment Technology Instruments robotics Data exploitation Planetary sciences Science with GMES data ISS experiments International partnerships Rover navigation Propulsion technologies ……………

22. Instruments Horizon 2020 has a flexible range of instruments that can be used from basic research to close to market demonstration. Basis: • Open, competitive call for all EU27 (no geo-return) • Co funding Grants: 100% Research, 70% Close-to-Market • Trans-national European (>3) consortia • Open to international participation (i.e. beyond EU) New in H2020: • prizes, loans, pre-commercial procurement

23. Horizon 2020 implementation • Part bottom-up, through annual calls in broadly defined topics • Part agenda-driven through multi-annual programmes of linked projects: Strategic Research Agenda • Widen participation from industry, SMEs, academia, technology institutes, agencies + non-ESA EU countries => CONSULTATION WORKSHOPS December 2012– February 2013

24. Conclusion • Space under Horizon 2020 will be more comprehensive than under FP7 • No longer includes GMES development • RTD and innovation (close to market activities) • Support to research and analysis of space data and (scientific) preparation for future missions • Ongoing activities • Development of Strategic Research Agenda H2020 • European Parliament and Council co-decision process • Opportunities in final call FP7
