Background: The need for an overview and exchange of information regarding HP Research and Innovation (the committee is not only open to EHPA members). The need to streamline project development (e.g. Horizon Europe, LIFE, Innovation Fund, European Partnerships, Interreg, Tenders, other relevant programmes) and the creation of consortiums/groups that can apply for these.
Aim: To establish a diverse and expanding group that can exchange information regarding research, innovation, project calls, initiatives, gaps in technology development and opportunities for advancement. To map HP related R&I at European level and to connect with diverse stakeholders that can offer different perspectives, skills and knowledge.
Who can attend: This committee is open to all EHPA members.
Schedule: The Research and Innovation Committee meets 3 times per year. Some of its meetings will be coupled either with Project calls that are open/opening (e.g. Horizon Europe, LIFE, EC tenders) or with EHPA project events (e.g. the Renewable Heating and Cooling (RHC) platform – Heat Pump Technology Panel (TP)). The meetings are held online via Microsoft Teams from 10:00 to 12:00 CET with an invitation being sent one month before the meeting and follow-up documents one to two weeks after.
Chair: EU Projects department at the European Heat Pump Association (EHPA)
