Ambitious U.S. Agenda
Establish Advanced Research Projects Agency for Energy
Appropriated $400M in 2009
Focus on “transformational” and “translational” R&D
High-risk, high-payoff energy technology R&D

Improving Linkages to Accelerate
Energy Technology Breakthroughs4-5 May 2009
Opening Remarks
Need for energy technology revolution
Breakthroughs critical to achieving emission reduction 2030-50
Important to understand each technology option
Don‟t pick winners - all are interdisciplinary and needed
Success requires focus on goal/outcomes
Overcome increased risks and costs of deployment
Increase basic R&D to scale-up and implement energy technologies
Partnerships essential, notably international government-industry
Raise public awareness of science and energy research to gain support
EGSE asked to help define necessary breakthroughs
©OECD/IEA 2009
Panel: Existing Science for Energy Efforts
Systematically link basic science with applied energy technology R&D
More basic science and research to achieve transformational discoveries
International cooperation is key to achieving breakthroughs
Need to develop roadmaps
Brainstorming
1. Breakthroughs in Science for Energy: What is Needed?
2. Mapping Science for Energy Efforts
3. Expanding International Collaboration and Linkages between Science
and Energy
Results of the brainstorming session will be used to shape future EGSE
priorities and activities.

New PathwaysIf you always do what you always did, you’ll always get what you always got.
©OECD/IEA 2009
Recent trends require changes in approach
Climate change, oil supplies, energy security, G8,global economic crisis
The clock is ticking and we’re running out of timeWEO and ETP point to tremendous efforts needed
“Energy technology revolution”
Traditional avenues of communication no longer sufficient
Workshops, publications, press releases, website allimportant but no longer sufficient
Global Energy Changes
©OECD/IEA 2009
Engage key world economies
Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa+Asia-Pacific, Latin America, Near-Middle East
Increase involvement important stakeholdersIndustry, finance, cities
Facilitate policy-making
Energy efficiency recommendations
Support for „vertical‟ organisations IRENA, IPEEC, GCCS
Targeted national events using IEA as platform
Energy technology roadmaps
Reaching Out and Into
©OECD/IEA 2009
Enhancing National R&D
Targeted activities Increase dialogue technology R&D actors
Increase policy coherence
Raise profile of ETRD network
©OECD/IEA 2009
1. Current status of technology and RDD&D
activities
2. Future technology targets to be achieved and
by when
3. Critical RDD&D activities and milestones
needed to meet these targets
4. Barriers to overcome (legal, regulatory,
acceptance etc.)
5. Policies required to support development and
deployment
6. Identification of roles and responsibilities,
including international co-operation
7. Evaluation criteria for assessing progress
ETP Roadmaps
©OECD/IEA 2009
Scoping paper reviewing existing work and identifying
issues
1 or 2 “pressure cooker” workshops with 15-20 experts
from industry, government, academia...
Develop draft roadmap
Circulate draft of roadmap to wider stakeholder group
Carry out missing analysis and refine roadmap
Re-circulate second draft for further comment
