Amendment 691 #
Proposal for a decision
Annex I – part I – point 3 – point 3.1 – paragraph 2
The overall aim is to endow Europe with world-class sustainable research infrastructures open and accessible to all researchers in Europe and beyond, which fully exploit their potential for scientific advance and innovation. Key objectives are to reduce the fragmentation of the research and innovation ecosystem, avoiding duplication of effort, and better coordinate the development and use of research infrastructures, especially those financed from ESIF. It is crucial to support open access to research infrastructures for all European researchers as well as, through the European Open Science Cloud (hereafter 'EOSC'), increased access to digital research resources, specifically tackling the currently sub-optimal embracement of open science and open data practises. Equally, the EU needs to tackle the rapid increase of global competition for talent by attracting third country researchers to work with European world-class research infrastructures. Increasing the competitiveness of European industry is also a major objective, supporting key technologies and services relevant for research infrastructures and their users, thus improving the conditions for supply of innovative solutions.

Amendment 870 #
Proposal for a decision
Annex I – part II – point 1 – point 1.2 – point 1.2.5 – paragraph 1
Health technologies and tools are vital for public health and contributed to a large extent to the important improvements achieved in the quality of life, health and care of people, in the EU. It is thus a key strategic challenge to design, develop, deliver and implement and monitor suitable, trustable, safe, and cost- effective tools and technologies for health and care, taking due account of the needs of people with disabilities and the aging society. These include artificial intelligence and other digital technologies, offering significant improvements over existing ones, as well as stimulating a competitive and sustainable health-related industry that creates high-value jobs. The European health-related industry is one of the critical economic sectors in the EU, accounting for 3% of GDP and 1.5 million employees.

Amendment 1311 #
Proposal for a decision
Annex I – part II – point 4 – point 4.1 – paragraph 7
The issues faced by the transport and energy sectors go however beyond the need for emission reduction. There are several challenges to be tackled, including renewable fuels, energy storage and security of supply, the increasing penetration of digital and space-based technologies, changes in user behaviour and mobility patterns, new market entrants and disruptive business models, globalisation, increasing international competition and an older, more urban and increasingly diverse, population.

Amendment 1389 #
Proposal for a decision
Annex I – part II – point 4 – point 4.2 – point 4.2.3 – paragraph 1
Enabling easier cooperation of existing energy plants with renewables, taking into account local needs and conditions facilitating system integration and flexibility (working on high and low loads).The expected growth of variable electricity production and shift towards more electric heating, cooling and transport dictates the need for new approaches to manage energy grids. Next to decarbonisation, the goal is to ensure energy affordability, security and stability of supply, achieved through investments in innovative network infrastructure technologies and innovative system management. Energy storage in different forms will play a key role in providing services to the grid, also improving and reinforcing network capacities. Exploiting synergies between different networks (e.g. electricity grids, heating and cooling networks, gas networks, transport recharging and refuelling infrastructure, hydrogen infrastructure, and telecom networks) and actors (e.g. industrial sites, data centres, self- producers) will be crucial for enabling the smart, integrated operation of the relevant infrastructures.

Amendment 1470 #
Proposal for a decision
Annex I – part II – point 4 – point 4.2 – point 4.2.7 – paragraph 1
For the EU to reach its air quality, climate, and energy goals, including a 60% reduction in green-house gas emissions by 2050 as well as noise reduction, will require rethinking the whole mobility system including users, vehicles, fuels and infrastructures as well as new transport solutions. It will also require the deployment of low-emission alternative energies and market uptake of zero- emission vehicles/vessels/aircrafts. In addition to the harmful effects of greenhouse gas emissions, transport contributes significantly to poor air quality and noise in Europe with negative consequences for the health of citizens18 . Building on progress with electrification and the use of fuel cells for cars, buses and light duty vehicles it is essential to accelerate research and innovation solutions for other sectors such as aviation, rail sector as well as maritime and inland navigation and lorries. _________________ 18 Around one-third of EU citizens live in urban areas with concentration levels of pollutants above legal thresholds

1. SHARING EXCELLENCEWIDENING PARTICIPATION33 _________________ 33 A criterion based on research and innovation excellence will be used to define those Member States and Associated Countries where legal entities need to be established in order to be eligible to submit proposals as coordinators under 'sharing excellence'. This criterion will address the dimensions of the overall economic performance (GDP), research performance and innovation performance in a combined manner normalised to the size of the related countries. The countries identified with this criterion are called 'eligible countries' in the context of 'sharing excellence'. On the basis of Article 349 TFEU, legal entities from Outermost Regions will be also fully eligible as coordinators under 'sharing excellence'.

Amendment 1925 #
Proposal for a decision
Annex I – part 4 – point 1 – paragraph 1
Reducing disparities in research and innovation performance by balancing participation of countries, sharing knowledge and expertise across the EU can only be attained by introducing horizontal measures across the Framework Programme translated into a political target. Those activities will help countries and regions that are lagging behind in terms of research and innovation performance, including the EU outermost regions, to attain a competitive position in the global value chains. Activities may also be established to foster brain circulation right across ERA and better exploitation of existing (and possibly jointly managed EU programmes) research infrastructures, especially those financed from ESIF, in the targeted countries through mobility of researchers and innovators.

Further action is therefore needed to counter the trend for closed collaborations, which can exclude large number of promising institutions, and to exploit the potential of the EU's talent pool by maximising and sharing the benefits of research and innovation across the EU. Fast-track take-up of projects stemming from 'Widening Participation' supported activities should be encouraged under Pillar II.
