Energy Framework Programmes

On 6 April 2005, the Commission adopted a proposal for the continuation of the Intelligent Energy - Europe programme during the period 2007-2013, as part of the Competitiveness and Innovation framework Programme (CIP). CIP provides a response to the call of the renewed Lisbon strategy for bigger, simpler and more visible and targeted Community tools. CIP brings together several existing EU activities with proven and successful track record that support competitiveness and innovation, notably eco-innovation and the sustainable use of resources. CIP has three main pillars: the Entrepreneurship and Innovation programme, the ICT Policy Support programme and the Intelligent Energy - Europe programme.

Further information on CIP and its specific programmes can be obtained via the following link.
