SOLAT ERANET. Introduction.• It is a FP7 project. • It is a network of national and regional funding
organisations. • It focuses on the field of solar electricity generation,
ie:• Photovoltaics (PV) • Concentrating Solar Power (CSP) /
Solar Thermal Electricity STE.
• Start November 2012• Duration 4 years (2016)
8
AimsThe European Industrial Initiative on solar energy focuses on photovoltaics (PV) and concentrating solar power (CSP) technologies.
The objective is to make these technolo-gies more competitive and to facilitate their large-scale penetration in urban areas and green-field locations as well as their integration into the electricity grid.
Activities A R&D programme focused on
enhancing the performance and lifetime of PV systems and com-ponents, and on developing key technologies for the interface with the power grid.
PV pilot production plants for innovative and cost-effective ma nu-fac turing processes, suitable for mass production.
A R&D and demonstration pro-gramme for CSP technologies focused on reducing generation, operation and maintenance costs, improving operational flexibility and energy dispatchability, and minimising the!environmental and water-use footprint.
A portfolio of demonstration projects of power production in decentralised applications and in urban communi-ties such as building integrated concepts and innovative, centralised power plants at an industrial scale of high-MW range.
InvestmentTaking the aforementioned R&D pro-grammes into account the investment cost of the solar initiative is estimated at "16 billion over ten years.

Solar ERANET. Objectives and Goals.
• Overarching objective ... is to effectively implement the Solar European Industry Initiative (on the transnational level).
The goal of SOLAR-ERA.NET is to undertake joint strategic planning, programming and activities for RTD and innovation in the area of solar electricity generation. Joint activities, namely joint calls, are defined for key topics and priorities in accordance with the Solar Europe Industry Initiative (SEII). These transnational calls are part of these activities.
4 joint calls:
• To support innovative, industry-led projects.• To improve cooperation between RDI
programmes.
• To strengthen Europe‘s position in the solar sector.
It is expected to mobilise:
• 50 MEUR funding from national and regional programmes.
• 125 MEUR total funding.
