1. Energy security, solidarity and trust
2. A fully integrated internal energy market
4. Transition to a low-carbon society
5. Research, Innovation, Competiveness
3. Energy Efficiency first

Focus areas:
− Number 1 in RES
− Consumer – smart grids, smart home
appliances, smart cities
− Efficient energy systems
− More sustainable transport systems
And two additional priorities:
− A forward-looking approach to CCS and CCU
for the power and industrial sectors
− Nuclear energy – the use of the highest
standards of safety, security, waste
management and non-proliferation;
Investment in clean energy

Paris Agreement on Climate Change
EU commitments
• Effort Sharing Regulation setting the
greenhouse gas emission reduction targets for
Member States for 2030 and a proposal on
integrating the land use sector into the EU's
2030 climate and energy framework.
• Strategy on low-emission mobility setting the
course for the development of EU-wide
measures on low and zero-emission vehicles
and alternative low-emissions fuel
• Mission Innovation

Winter Package
Energy Efficiency package
Revision and update of
• Energy Efficiency Directive (EED)
• Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD)
to reflect the new energy efficiency target for 2030.
By the end of 2016:
Proposals for legislation necessary to complete the Energy Union
for implementation in the post-2020 period
9 #H2020GridsStorage
Winter Package
• New Electricity Market Design
• Revised Renewable Energy Directive (RED)
and bioenergy sustainability policy for 2030
(RES share of at least 27% in the EU in 2030);
• Communication on the most vital energy infrastructures
• Revision of the Regulation on security of electricity supply.
• Governance of the Energy Union
(preparing the ground for creating Integrated National
Energy and Climate Plans for the period of 2021 to 2030).
• An Energy Union research, innovation and competitiveness
strategy for a low carbon economy (EURICS)
• Second State of the Energy Union
10 #H2020GridsStorage
SET Plan fit for the new challenges
• New impulse to the partnership
• Principles: targeted focus, integrated
approach, new governance
• Changes:
• SET Plan in the Energy Union
• Widening to new actors
• More joint actions
• Transparency, indicators and reporting
• Monitoring and knowledge sharing

Integrated Roadmap, Energy Union & SET Plan
12 #H2020GridsStorage
Current state of the Declaration of Intent:
Technologies, systems and services for
more flexibility should therefore be
developed in the following areas:
• Energy grids and systems (including
interconnections),
• Storage, connections with other energy
networks
• Demand response, integration of prosumers
• Flexible and sustainable backup and
generation.
SET Plan Action 4
Resilience, security and smartness of the energy system
+ Economic efficiency
Electricity at the center of the
energy system
13 #H2020GridsStorage
Setting targets and implementing the SET Plan
https://ec.europa.eu/energy/en/news/integrated-set-plan-fit-new-challenges
• The SET Plan has built strong collaboration
and commitment among EC, the MS and
research and industrial actors through a
highly participatory process.
• We are commonly setting R&I priorities with
the aim to maintain – or regain in some
cases – the EU's global leadership in low-
carbon technologies and solutions, and
support climate change policies.
