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.
Further information about FP7 information days can be found on the

The manufacturing industry is consuming large quantities (percentage of primary energy) of energy - electricity, heat, cold, fuels - for the production of industrial and consumer goods; any increase in energy efficiency in the manufacturing processes would deliver significant benefits on security of energy supply as well as reduction of green house gases emissions while reducing the cost of the manufactured goods. This has been highlighted in all industrial technology platforms (Steel industry, Chemical industry and Forest products industry). Activities will focus on the demonstration of innovative production processes in the manufacturing industry with significant energy savings and improved environmental performance. Emphasis will be given on innovative recovery of waste heat in industrial processes and efficient management of industrial and community waste and residues while maximising the overall energy efficiency.
