Oslo kommune i internasjonalt samarbeid om energieffektiv veibelysning Enova har tildelt 1,5 mill. kroner i nasjonal medfinansiering til Oslo kommune Oslo kommune har i samarbeid med 15 europeiske byer organisert, iverksatt og dokumentert energibesparelser for 100 000 veilys gjennom prosjektene E-street og ESOLI. Resultater: etablering av nye internasjonale standard, introduksjon av dimmbare og behovtilpassede løsninger, mer enn 100 000 energieffektive veilys installert. Veileder for energieffektiv gatebelysning. Markedseffekt: betydelig framvekst av nye selskaper som satser i markedet for utendørs belysning http://www.esoli.org/ www.e-streetlight.com
OFFSHORE GRID (2009 2011) Regulerende rammeverk for offshorenett og kraftmarkedene i Europa: teknisk-økonomisk vurdering av ulike designalternativer Industri og eksperter foreslår offshore nettdesign for 120 GW offshore vind- + havenergi i Nord- og Østersjøen Nettdesign basert på fire scenario Kostnadsanslag for typiske generatorplasseringer, netttilknytnings behov og marked adferd. Overføre løsningene til Middelhavet Sentrale oppnåelser: Levert innspill til EUs Energy infrastructure priorities for 2020 and beyond - A Blueprint for an integrated European energy network - COM(2010) 677 final Hvordan bør offshorenett designes? www.offshoregrid.eu
GP WIND (2010 2012) Tar for seg barrierer for utvikling av on- og offshore vindkraft ved å utvikle en god praksis i å forene målene om fornybar energi med miljømål og aktiv involvering av lokalsamfunn. Bygger erfaringsbasert støtte for design, planlegging og implementering av prosjekter som er følsomme for bekymringer fra lokalsamfunn og for miljøet Øke andelen som samtykker for on- og offshore vindprosjekter og redusere behandlingstiden for søknader Sikre godkjenningen av prosjekter ved å samarbeide med myndigheter og ved forpliktelse til å vedta relevant god praksis http://www.project-gpwind.eu/

Important budget principles > IEE projects are cost-shared projects: no profit making allowed > staff costs + overhead costs are predominant cost items > staff costs based on actual, real salary + social charges > evidence required for staff costs (e.g.: copies of payslips, timesheets) > Flat Rate of 60% on staff costs to cover indirect costs ( overheads ) do not need to be justified > No basic research or hardware costs accepted > EU Funding of up to 75% of total eligible costs 23
IEE evaluation: Principles > Fair and equal treatment of all proposers Based on the criteria announced in the Call Confidential process, no conflicts of interest Independent external experts as advisers > Competitive process Indicative budget (per field) as guidance > 3 steps of the evaluation process Eligibility criteria Selection criteria Award criteria 24

Hvorfor deltar i EU prosjekter? Innføring i Europeisk energi og miljøpolitikk hva er de fremtidige kravene? Samfunnsansvar bidra til å finne felles løsninger og dele «best practice» Kompetanseoppbygging Konkurransedyktighet Omdømmebygging Finansieringsmuligheter Attraktiv arbeidsplass
"Great things are done by a series of small things brought together." Vincent Van Gogh Deltakelse i internasjonale prosjekter gir mulighet for å møte andre som arbeider med samme fagområde Møtet med andre mennesker utvider perspektivet Prosjektarbeid som ikke blir som planlagt gir god og nyttig erfaring Ny kunnskap bidrar til ny refleksjon Internasjonale aktiviteter krever langsiktig tenkning og engasjement! Involver - selv om veien ikke er helt klar Aksepter at ikke alt fungerer som vi er vant til Legg til rette for at deltakelse er mulig. Tenk utradisjonelt og ta noen sjanser!
