The European Commission has adopted a proposal for a European Strategic Energy Technology Plan [1]. Energy technology will be a key element of Europe's plans to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions and move towards a low-carbon future. But there are structural weaknesses in the current energy research system [2]. The Strategic Energy Technology Plan [3] should help the European Union position itself to develop the technologies it needs to meet its political objectives and at the same time ensure its companies can benefit from the opportunities of a new approach to energy.
