Innovation programme, pilots and demonstration Sample Clauses

Innovation programme, pilots and demonstration. The development of offshore wind energy as a result of the Energy Agreement shows that rolling out technologies with an ambitious objective, relating to the prospects for the compensation of operating shortfalls, can lead to spectacular cost reductions. These types of developments are also possible for sustainable technologies in industry, such as process efficiency, industrial heat pumps, green hydrogen and power to heat. This agreement aims to make all that possible. The success of the system transition in the industry is predicated on the development of new processes and technologies, which enable production to take place more efficiently, as well as differently and better. These new technologies and processes will not come about by themselves. Innovation, pilots and demonstration projects are crucial to making the required new technologies available, reliable and affordable. Technologies that are required to achieve near-zero industrial emissions beyond 2030 are at present still in the lower TRLs.39 The focus is on achieving cost reductions and accelerating the launch onto the market of technologies that are crucial to realising the 2030 target and beyond, such as electrolysis of water (green hydrogen), electrification, CCU(S), circular processes,40 better use of residual streams and green gas and thermal decoupling. The Netherlands has a long tradition of public-private partnerships in the context of innovation stimulation. Many public and public-private institutes, and many schemes – both tax and subsidy schemes – support the private sector innovation process. Dutch parties can also make use of the support options for innovation provided by the EU.41 A number of instruments are exclusively available for the climate transition, whereas other have been steadily refocused on this in recent years. The existing support available will naturally be carried on. Businesses and the government will work together to reap the maximum benefits from European funds that are available for demonstrations and for first-of-a-kind facilities. Furthermore, additional funds will be made available for innovation. An amount of up to 100 million euros a year will be made available by the government, which will be matched by a private sector contribution that will at least be equal to the public sector funds. This means an additional innovation stimulus of up to 2 billion euros in total will become available up to 2030. The aim is to use these funds to achieve significant cost...
