The third in the JRC's (Joint Research Centre, deutsch: Gemeinsame Forschungsstelle GFS) series of thematic reports has been published. Entitled 'Science for Energy', this new publication gives an insight into the research carried out by the JRC in the areas of energy efficiency, security of energy supply, renewable energy, nuclear energy , energy technology innovation and hydrogen technologies.
The report outlines JRC's work and achievements in the different areas of energy research, including for instance biofuels, smart grids, ecodesign, photovoltaics and fuel cells. Within each area, the detailed policy context is cited, showing the JRC's added value as independent and science-based advisor to the EU policy-making process.
