SETatWork project
Networking workshop
Organized by:
www.setatwork.eu
The world has entered a new energy era, where energy technology has a vital role to play.
Sustainable Energy Technology at Work, SETatWork, strives at uniformed effort on
addressing the EU interests in the carbon markets, by comprising EU policy goals as well as
business opportunities. The basic objective of SETatWork, is to facilitate the entry of
European know-how on Sustainable Energy Technologies (SET) into emerging climate
markets: the European Union Emission Trading Scheme (EU ETS) and the Clean
Development Mechanism (CDM) market in Asia and Latin America.
Sustainable Energy Technology at Work, a project supported by the EU's Seventh Framework
Programme (FP7), is thus having as a key aim to promote sustainable energy technologies at
carbon markets with focus on EU ETS and CDM markets in Asia and Latin America.
The T@W Sustainable Energy Technology at Work project today consists of 10 partners from
Europe, 4 partners from Asia and 1 from Latin America.

Introduction/background and meeting content
The global society is faced with a huge challenge in order to meet the threat given by
global warming. The project SETatWork - Sustainable Energy Technologies at Work
aims to meet this challenge through the collaboration and partnerships between
organisations in EU, Asia and South America, supported by the EU's Seventh
Framework Programme (FP7).
In this context, one ETS match-making event has been organized as a side event
during the 18th European Biomass Conference with the following objectives:
In the final part of the workshop, a "networking cocktail" has been organized where
participants had the opportunity to share experiences, discuss "face-to-face"
regarding new business opportunities, present innovative ideas, search for
technologies, projects and know-how, meet potential co-operation partners and
promote the company profile.

Overall assessment of the outcome of the meeting
The 18th EUBC&E has featured the SETatWork project Networking Workshop, an
important occasion for matching stakeholders involved in energy efficiency and
savings in European industry sectors for realization of new projects.
The session was not only oriented in biomass technology. On the contrary, invited
speakers came from different sectors with the objective to promote the
implementation of innovative and sustainable technologies in companies that
participate in EU Emissions Trading System. In this context, relevant discussed
argument have been:
Speakers involved in the workshop came from different areas and participants
have had the chance to hear about funding opportunities for the development of
sustainable energy projects offered by the European Commission (SEE and
CORDIS), the potential for renewable energy in industrial applications and the role
of international cooperation (UNIDO United Nations Industrial Development
Organization), the Large-scale demonstration and deployment of green energy
projects in Scotland (Scottish European Green Energy Centre).
In addiction the industry sector was also represented by GE Jenbacher and Merloni
Progetti SPA who gave an overview about their product for power generation
applications to meet stringent emission standards.
The final presentation, made by WIP Renewable Energies, was a very interesting
overview about the energy efficiency investments which are offered by the Energy
Services Companies (ESCOs) at European level.
In the final part of the workshop, a "networking cocktail" has been organized,
participants have had the opportunity to share experiences and discuss "face-to-
face" regarding new business opportunities.

policy priorities such as carbon capture and storage and renewable heat,
through its work in Scotland and with partners across Europe.
The key functions of the Centre are to support the development of joint
projects in green energy research and deployment, the EU-wide dissemination
of results of existing and new projects, helping create EU wide partnerships
with industry towards commercialisation and obtaining funding for these
activities through EU programmes.
