EC proposal for a 80 billion euro research and
innovation funding programme (2014-2020)
A core part of Europe 2020, Innovation Union and
European Research Area
Responding to the economic crisis to invest in future
jobs and growth
Societal needs – livelihood, safety and environment
Strengthening the EU’s global position in research,
innovation and technology

- 9. Horizon 2020 standardization links
“Stronger support will be given to the market take-up of innovation,
including by the public sector. This will include more proof-of-concept,
piloting and demonstration. It will involve a better use of the potential of
research infrastructures, as well as setting technical standards, precommercial procurement and strengthened loan and equity financing.”

- 10. Standards in Horizon 2020 Calls
Screening of the calls for proposals identified standardization in +/165 topics as follows:
Mapping of relevant standards
Standardization gap analysis
Development of new standards
Development and implementation of standardization roadmaps
(may include international cooperation)
Etc
Even if not specifically mentioned in the call
standards can be identified by project proposers.
Standardization bodies can be included in the
consortium. This should be addressed at proposal
stage.

- 11. Horizon 2020 – calls extracts
SPIRE-04-2014: Methodologies, tools
and indicators for cross-sectorial
sustainability assessment of energy
and resource efficient solutions in the
process industry
Scope: Strategies should be proposed to work with value chain partners, public
authorities and final users, in particular to meet expectations in terms of relevant
sustainability assessment (e.g. standards, labelling), and create a broad range of
options to raise awareness levels and understanding of sustainability.
Collaboration with standardisation bodies should be addressed.
BG-06-2014: Delivering the sub-sea
technologies for new services at sea
Scope: Where relevant, activities should cover the development of European
standards.
EeB-01-2014: Materials for building
envelope
Scope: Standardisation aspects can be considered particularly in relation with
the work carried out in CEN/TC 350.
NMP-06-2015: Novel nanomatrices
and nanocapsules
Scope: Safety considerations and contribution to standardization should be an
integral part of the projects.
Expected impact: Identification of gaps in standards, paving the way for future
pre-normative activities in the field.

- 13. Documents we produce:
Developed in a Technical Committee following the national
delegation principle:
European Standard (EN) – identical in 33 countries
Technical Specification (TS) – first trail/ pre-standard step
Technical Report (TR) – informative
Direct participation model mostly used in R&D context:
CEN-CENELEC Workshop Agreement (CWA) – agreement between
interested parties, open participation
eg CWA “Fuels and biofuels – pure plat oil fuel for diesel engine
concepts – requirements and tests methods’ developed by FP7

- 14. The Integrated Approach
Research project development
Identify new areas
Screen existing standards and needs
Draft programmes and proposals
Select based on standards need/potential
Perform research project
Identify standards potential of project results
Protect, diffuse & implement project results
Use standards & standardization as transfer channel
Evaluate research programme & project results
Standards and standardization as output evaluation criteria
© CEN-CENELEC 2012 - 14
- 15. Good practice for a project proposal
The support a CEN or CENELEC member gives to the standardization
process as part of a research project can be broken down into:
Step 1 – Analysis of standardization potential (state of the art,
gaps etc)
Step 2 – Liaison Organisation status (if applicable)
Step 3 – Proposal for new standardization work (WS, input to
existing work, new standards etc)
Step 4 – Guidance and support on standardization process
Step 5 – Publication of the final deliverable (note: CEN-CENELEC
keep copyright!)
Note: the Research Project has to ensure the necessary funding
(e.g. for a Workshop secretariat) is included in the budget

- 16. CEN-CENELEC participation policy
“CEN and CENELEC as organizations will not join a
research project as a partner. A CEN or CENELEC national
member, representing CEN or CENELEC, can join a
research project”
CCMC-staff not eligible for FP-funding
Only a national member (NSB/NC) can take the secretariat
of a technical group developing our deliverables
Contact with the National Standardization Bodies is
facilitated through the Research Helpdesk and a network
of “Correspondents” on Research & Innovation issues at
national level (RDI-COR)
