What is the S3PEnergy about?

The main objectives of the S3PEnergy are:

  1. to support the implementation of the smart specialisation strategies of those regions/countries that have chosen energy-related priorities in their S3 (under Thematic Objective 1), in particular as regards energy innovation activities at (sub)national, regional and local levels.

  2. to assist countries in the uptake of the Cohesion Policy funding opportunities for energy (under TO 4 and 7e);

The S3PEnergy will contribute the EU energy policy priorities by facilitating partnerships between EU regions that have identified renewable energy technologies and innovative energy solutions as their smart specialisation priorities and by promoting alignment between local, regional, national and European activities on energy sustainability, competitiveness and security of supply.
