Welcome to SETIS - Towards a low-carbon future

The Information System for the European Strategic Energy Technology Plan (SET-Plan)

SETIS

SETIS is... Technology mapping

The Technology map reports vital information on the status and prospects of low-carbon technology goals in the EU.

SETIS is... Capacities mapping

The Capacities map quantifies the current public and private research and development (R&D) expenditures across the EU- on the priority low-carbon energy technologies.

SETIS is... Building a community

Managed by the Joint Research Centre (JRC), SETIS works in close collaboration with the European Technology Platforms, European Energy Research Alliance and European Industrial Initiatives (EIIs).
