HYDROPOWER EUROPE’S 2nd Stakeholder Online Consultation is Now Open
HYDROPOWER EUROPE, a multipartner initiative supported by the European Union’s Horizon 2020 Programme, launched on 28 July 2020 its second online consultation. The consultation aims to establish priorities for the proposed research and innovation actions listed within two strategic documents: the Research & Innovation Agenda and the Strategic Industry Roadmap.
The HYDROPOWER EUROPE (HPE) forum, in which EASE is involved as leader of the consultation process, aims to gather all relevant stakeholders of the hydropower sector to achieve a Research & Innovation Agenda (RIA) and Strategic Industry Roadmap (SIR), based on the synthesis of technical fora and transparent public debates.
The main focus in this second consultation round is to gather the feedback from a wide range of hydropower stakeholders on the proposed research and innovation actions (R&I) listed within the two main HPE documents.
This consultation is one of the last opportunities for stakeholders to provide feedback and recommendations about the main R&I priorities for the future of hydropower in Europe and how hydropower can contribute to a successful clean energy transition.
Completing the survey will take circa 15 minutes and comprises a review and prioritisation of actions proposed under the RIA and SIR respectively. In this occasion you will also be able to share your opinion on the future of the HYDROPOWER EUROPE Forum!
The consultation process closes at the end of October 2020.
EASE and LCP-Delta are pleased to announce the publication of the eighth edition of the European Market Monitor on Energy Storage (EMMES). The Market Monitor is an interactive database that tracks over 3,000 energy storage projects. With information on assets in over 29 countries, it is the largest and most detailed archive of European storage. The database is accompanied by a report which outlines key EU legislation, drivers and barriers for 14 core countries, future projects and forecasts to 2030.
EASE has compiled analyses of measures for energy storage in the draft updated NECPs to point out their strengths and weaknesses, based upon the Commission’s Recommendations for Energy Storage.
In light of interconnected challenges, such as energy security, economic growth, consumer protection, and climate change, energy storage emerges as a crucial tool to address these issues. EASE 2024 manifesto outlines four key goals and corresponding actions that prioritise energy storage, positioning it at the forefront of Europe’s energy system.
EASE has published its 2023 Activity Report. In 2023, EASE embraced several opportunities, and sustained its position as the main European advocate for energy storage in the continent’s energy landscape.
