The 2008 Call for Proposals for Energy (FP7-ENERGY-2008-TREN-1) under the Seventh Framework Programme for Research and Technological Development (FP7) was published on 29 April 2008. In order to support the preparation of proposals, the Directorate General for Energy and Transport (DG TREN) of the European Commission held an Information Day on 20 June 2008 in Brussels.
The aim of this event was to disseminate information about FP7 and the research areas open in the 2008 Call for Proposals on Energy within the Cooperation Programme, to give details about the main legal and procedural conditions, and to answer any questions.

The integrated research and deployment strategy developed by the European Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Technology Platform (HFP) provides the basis for a strategic, integrated programme for transport, stationary and portable applications, aimed at providing a strong technological foundation for building a competitive EU fuel cell and hydrogen supply and equipment industry. The programme will comprise: fundamental and applied research and technological development; demonstration projects at an appropriate scale to validate research results and provide feedback for further research; cross-cutting and socio-economic research activities including infrastructure issues to underpin sound transition strategies and provide a rational basis for policy decisions and market framework development. The industrial applied research, demonstration and cross-cutting activities of the programme could be implemented through the Joint Technology Initiative (JTI). This strategically managed, goal oriented action will be complemented and closely co-ordinated with more upstream collaborative research effort aimed at achieving breakthrough on critical materials, processes and emerging technologies.
This activity will address topics for research that will not be addressed by the JTI, taking into consideration the input received from the HFP strategic documents, in particular the Implementation Plan. It will cover basic oriented research on novel materials, process engineering, components and sub-systems, as well as cross-cutting issues, aimed at achieving significant performance and durability improvements and cost reductions in order to meet the relevant targets specified in the HFP Implementation Plan.
