Hansa Energy Corridor (HEC)
European Energy Region of Excellence
• Advanced cross-border cluster collaboration in the field of energy
• Growth of innovation-related activities
• Higher competitiveness of cross-border energy sector with specific
emphasis on SMEs
BUT!
• Lack of critical mass
• Binding sustainable structure for cross-
border cluster collaboration
• Building on synergies and opportunities for
mutual learning
• Integrated research agendas
BUT!
• It’s not an end in itself, it is an intermediary
step towards European Region of Excellence
• World-class energy hot spot
• Synergy with EU energy policy,
EU regional policy and EU
research agenda
• Concrete solutions for the
development of cross-border
energy systems

organisations
Key theme: Trans-national cooperation of regional
research-intensive clusters
Duration: up to 36 months
Budget: ( ca 3 M EUR)
Financing rate: up to 100 % of eligible costs
Participants: Research driven clusters from Norway,
Scotland, Germany and the Netherlands and China as a
