ProEcoPolyNet (PEP-Net) Network for the
promotion of RTD results in the field of Eco-building technologies,
small Polygeneration and renewable heating and cooling technologies for
buildings
PEP-Net will give support to the bundling
and sharing of European Research know-how in three thematic interlinked
areas: eco-buildings, small polygeneration and renewable energy heating
and cooling technologies. Promotion needs information.
Information needs to be easily accessible, easily understood and easily
useable to fulfil its obligation to become wide-spread knowledge, widely
used and develop a visible impact.
Targeting researchers and technology experts, manufacturers that could
produce the new technologies, enterprises that can apply them, planners
and architects, and associations of enterprises and other relevant
actors, the proposed actions will increase the level of information and
know-how among the relevant market actors regarding new RTD results of
the three thematic areas, help spur market implementation and thus
stimulate and facilitate transfer of knowledge regarding RTD results and
applications throughout Europe. Special attention is also given to
innovative technologies that have passed the primary stage of
demonstration, that are on the edge to commercialisation with a
promising market perspective.
The
contribution of the action is thus directly guided towards the Lisbon
Strategy to make Europe the “most dynamic and competitive knowledge
economy in the world” and where it asks for reinvigorated European
research, to keep research “an engine of economic and social progress”.
The
horizontal cluster work package 1 (WP1) facilitates efficient project
management, creation and strengthening reliable partnerships of the
network team, transfer of experiences and reporting on the project
progress. The work package 2 (WP 2) provides support in the frame of
General Promotion and Dissemination on cross-thematic issues and for
promotion of the network and its offers.
The overall goal of WP 3 is to accelerate
the market introduction of results of European (and partly national)
research programmes related to eco-building technologies with a focus on
market introduction of technical solutions for highly efficient office
buildings (resp. other tertiary buildings) with a focus on decrease of
cooling loads resp. efficient cooling approaches. and market
introduction of low-energy single family houses (with a focus on
prefabricated houses)
The
overall objective of WP 4 is to facilitate market penetration of
technical applications/solutions related to “polygeneration
technologies” within the following technological focal areas of
Trigeneration and small scale applications and Micro CHP and innovative
technologies, including biomass.
WP 5 deals with
Renewable heating and cooling, innovative storage systems and heat
pumps and innovative technologies
The expected results are
-
Establishing an European network and
discussion platform on RTD results in the three thematic areas
-
Stimulation and facilitation the
transfer of knowledge
-
setting-up of widely used information
channels for communication and information exchange and
comprehensive dissemination and promotion of RTD results towards
target groups
-
efficient and innovative
building-related energy technologies are promoted and
disseminated
-
Increasing the level of information
and Know-how related the RTD results in the three thematic areas
Supporting market introduction of RTD
results as key technologies for clean energy appliances and improved
energy efficiency of buildings
