European Technology and Innovation Platforms (ETIP)

In order to support the implementation of the actions of the SET Plan, the EU created and funds European Technology and Innovation Platforms (ETIPs), by bringing together representatives from EU countries and industry, with the participation of researchers in key areas. They promote the market uptake of key energy technologies by pooling funding, skills, and research facilities.
