ETAP the actions
  • Getting from research to markets
  • ? Strengthening research on ET, supporting
    demonstration dissemination
  • ? Establishing a common vision through
    technology platforms
  • ? Improving testing, performance verification
    and standardisation of ET
  • Improving market conditions
  • Actions 6-23
  • Acting globally
  • Actions 24-25
  • Moving forward
  • Actions 26-28
  • Environmental
    Technologies

Report on ETAP (2005-2006)
  • Key priorities to take ETAP implementation
    further
  • to increase demand in environmental
    technologies by focussing on sectors with high
    environmental gains, e.g. building, food and
    drink, private transport, and recycling and waste
    water industries increase green procurement in
    particular for eco-innovative technologies,
    products and services
  • to facilitate the development and marketing of
    eco-innovation by mobilising greater financial
    investments, establishing an EU Technology
    Verification scheme to provide third-party
    reliable verification for the environmental
    performance of new technologies
  • to build on good practice of Member States
    through a structured exchange of experience and
    championing of promising practices in Member
    States furthering national ETAP roadmaps will be
    instrumental in delivering concrete progress on
    the ground
  • to ensure a strategic knowledge resource on
    eco-innovation that would bring together timely
    and strategic knowledge for European public
    organisations and financers.

ETV in FP7
  • Area 6.3.3.3 Environmental Technologies
    Verification and Testing
  • ENV.2008.3.3.3.1. Harmonised approaches towards
    the development of international technology
    verification systems
  • In 2004, the European Commission launched the
    Environmental Technology Action Plan (ETAP,
    COM(2004) 38 final). In this context, the
    establishment of a European Environmental
    Technologies Verification system is believed to
    favour and to speed-up the diffusion of
    innovative technologies into the market through a
    third-party confirmation of the performance of an
    environmental technology. Previous RTD efforts
    have been focussed on establishing European
    networks of technology performance verification
    in different sectors. The aim of this
    coordination action is to support, integrate and
    coordinate previous and on-going European RTD
    efforts with existing and fully operating
    technology verification systems outside the EU
    (e.g. the US, Canada, Japan, Korea, Singapore,
    etc.), with the ultimate goal of developing a
    framework for international cooperation and
    mutual recognition. The topic is open to all
    countries outside the EU having an established
    (or wishing to establish) an Environmental
    Technology Verification system. (Policy relevant
    topic)
  • Funding scheme coordination and support actions
    (coordinating type)
  • Expected impact Proposals should demonstrate
    that the proposed schemes and protocols for
    Environmental Technologies Verification systems
    have the potential to be recognised
    internationally

ETV Seminar Testing and verification of
environmental technologies 3 October 2006,
Dipoli, Espoo FI
  • Discussion notes on cost, time and acceptance
  • Cost and time are relevant variables although
    credibility and acceptance more relevant
  • A European system could save time as compared to
    actual situation (no need of additional/national
    testing)
  • Acceptance during the development phase
  • The system has to support market penetration of
    new technologies (procedures and testing
    protocols) LINK

As reported by the Finnish Ministry of the
Envvironment, Merja Saarnilehto, ETAP HLWG 13
