Guidance on How to Use the ManagEnergy Partner Search Service

This site contains contact details and descriptions of many European organisations, including Energy Agencies, able to offer advice and participate in joint ventures on RUE and RES.

The Partner Search facility enables you to search Partner Search Reports in order to find Partners for your Intelligent Energy Europe and Sixth Framework Programme (FP6) project proposals and other activities. You can also search All Organisations on this website to identify contacts that match your search criteria.

You will also find Partner Search Reports listed in the Reports section of Country, Organisation and Keyword pages. You can access these by:

• Subject using the Keyword Index or Keyword Menus
• Country
• Embedded Word Search using the search box (above left) from any page of this website

Please be aware that not all countries listed in this partner search are eligible for grants for EU-funded programmes such as Intelligent Energy - Europe and the Seventh Framework Programme (FP7).

You can also search the listed on this website to identify potential partners matching your search criteria.

• Add details of your Partner Search requirements
• Add details of your organisation to this website

ManagEnergy maintains this partner search service to assist organisations who are looking for partners for project proposals for EC programmes as well as other related activities in Europe within the themes covered by ManagEnergy.

Although all information is added in good faith, neither the ManagEnergy team nor the European Commission accept responsibility or liability whatsoever with regard to the material on this site. See the disclaimer for further information.

When entering into a partnership with an organisation listed on this site we recommend that you check the credentials and suitability of that organisation for your proposed project early on in your discussions. For example, you should:

• obtain copies of business accounts, CVs, company literature and other documentation required for submitting a proposal to EC programmes or forming a partnership
• discuss in detail the contribution to be made by any potential project partner
• request details of other projects they have been involved in
• request references and follow these up

How to use the Partner Search facility:

You can use the Partner Search facility to search:

• Partner Search Reports forms completed by ManagEnergy registrants, or
• All Organisations on this website

Use the radio buttons at the top of the page to switch between the two options

Select multiple options in the menu boxes using the SHIFT and CTRL keys, for example:

to select a range of items in a menu:

• click on the first option (it will be highlighted)
• scroll to the bottom of the list
• hold down the SHIFT key and then click on the last item in the list (all selected items will be highlighted)

to select or deselect individual items:

• click on a option in the list (it will be highlighted)
• hold down the CTRL key and then click on another item in the list (all selected items will be highlighted)
• hold down the CTRL key and then click on another item in the list (all selected items will be highlighted)
• hold down the CTRL key and then click on a highlighted item in the list (it will no longer be highlighted)

Item One Item Two Item Three

If multiple options are selected then the system searches by default using a Boolean AND operation. This means that it will only display Reports | Organisations that match ALL the search criteria.

  AND - match ALL search criteria    OR - match ANY search criteria 

You can change the selection using the radio buttons immediately above the search button. Running the search using a Boolean OR operation will display Reports | Organisations that match ANY of the search criteria. This will usually give you more results than the Boolean AND search.

  AND - match ALL search criteria    OR - match ANY search criteria 

Note: It is not possible to search for Partner Search reports or Organisations from more than one country at a time. This is because very few Partner search reports and no Organisations relate to more than one country at a time. Boolean AND searches for multiple countries are therefore unlikely to give any results.
