Download the ReportThe world has entered a new energy era, where energy technology has a vital role to play. T@W: Sustainable Energy Technology at Work (a project supported by the European Commission’s Sixth Framework Programme (FP6) from April 2006 to March 2008) aimed to address the EU interests in the carbon markets by connecting EU policy goals on sustainable development to business opportunities within the carbon and climate markets. This would be achieved by facilitating the entry of European know-how on Sustainable Energy Technologies (SET) into the emerging climate markets created by the European Union Emission Trading Scheme (EU ETS) and the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) in Asia.
This publication Sustainable Energy Technologies / RTD practice at the ETS and CDM markets evaluates and reviews the results of the T@W activity in order to extract lessons and compare observations in the targeted regions within Europe and Asia with a view to identifying the best ways to promote SET with an EU perspective. It aims to be an inspiration for EU ETS companies around Europe.
In addition, this publication introduces the SETatWork: Sustainable Energy Technology at Work project, which continues these activities with support from the European Commission’s Seventh Framework Programme (FP7), with an extended focus on energy efficiency in industry and the use of polygeneration in Europe, Asia and Latin America.
