\n\n· \ncontribute to developing denser infrastructure\nand to increasing public awareness and acceptance by transferring\nthe knowhow and expertise of the stronger performing Member\nStates to the weaker performing Member States by way\nof demonstrations and pilot projects and by\nWestEast centres,
\n\n· \nsupport development of advanced technologies for\nrecovery of metals, critical for the development and\ndeployment of FCH technologies from Union sources,\nincluding technological by-products and waste, and
\n\n· \nreduce the use of the \"critical raw\nmaterials\", as defined by the Commission, by\nidentifying relevant substitutes where technically feasible and\neconomically justifiable.
\nScope of activities:\nMembers inserted a new article to clarify the scope of activities\nof the Joint Undertaking, in particular with respect to the\nrelevant Technology Readiness Levels covered by its research\nprogramme. The Rules on Participation also call for a greater\nconsideration of the Technology Readiness Levels concept in\nrelation to funding levels, which is taken up in this article with\na view to the funding rates used in indirect actions.
\nFinancial contribution:\nthe maximum Union contribution, including contributions\nfrom countries of the European Free Trade Association\n(EFTA), to the FCH 2 Joint Undertaking to cover administrative costs and\noperational costs should be EUR 665 million (rather than EUR\n700 million in the Commission proposal). The contribution should be\npaid from the appropriations in the general budget of the Union\nallocated to the Horizon\n2020 Framework Programme and in particular from\nappropriations allocated to the specific objectives \"Secure, Clean and Efficient Energy and \"Smart,\ngreen and integrated transport\".
\nAdditional activities carried out by private\nmembers: while the additional activities to be carried out by\nprivate members are a welcome addition to the leverage effect of\nthe JTI, they should not be subject to auditing. Additional\nactivities should be planned and carried-out accordingly,\ndetermined clearly as in-kind contributions, and reported on\nannually.
\nEvaluation: by 30 June 2017 the Commission\nshall organise an independent interim\nevaluation of the Joint Undertaking. The results of the\nindependent interim evaluation should be taken into account in\nthe interim evaluation of Horizon 2020.
\nIn order to respond to unforeseen situations or\nto new developments and needs the Commission may, following\nthe interim evaluation of Horizon 2020 review the budget of the\nJoint Undertaking within the annual budgetary procedure.
\nRules for participation and\ndissemination: work plans\nmay provide for justified additional conditions\naccording to specific policy requirements or to the nature and\nobjective of the action, inter alia, that coordinators shall be\nconstituent entities of a Member of the FCH 2 Joint\nUndertaking other than the Union. This should under no\ncondition and throughout the programme raise undue conditions or\nrestrain that willing entities can become a constituent entity of a\nMember. The principles of openness and transparency shall\napply throughout the duration of the FCH 2 Joint\nUndertaking.
\nIn accordance with the principles of transparency and\nnon-discrimination, calls for proposals organised by the FCH 2\nJoint Undertaking shall be published on the web-based Horizon\n2020 Participant Portal.
\nDuty to divulge information: the report contains a new provision stating that\nMembers of the staff of the Joint Undertaking, the Executive\nDirector, and members of the Governing Board shall, without delay,\nreport such fraud as might have come to their knowledge in the\nperformance of their duties or office in OLAF provided that\nthis disclosure does not render them liable to\nprosecution.
\nThe European Parliament adopted by 588 votes to 26,\nwith 62 abstentions, a legislative resolution on the proposal for a\nCouncil regulation on the Fuel Cells and Hydrogen 2 Joint\nUndertaking.

\nPURPOSE: to prolong the Joint Undertaking (JU) in the\nfield of Fuel Cells and Hydrogen (the FCH 2 JU).
\nPROPOSED ACT: Council Regulation.
\nROLE OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT: the Council adopts\nthe act after consulting the European Parliament but without being\nobliged to follow its opinion.
\nBACKGROUND: the framework programme for research and\ninnovation Horizon 2020 encourages\npublic-private partnerships (PPP) in research and innovation\nwith a view to tackling the major challenges facing\nEurope.
\nThis proposal provides for a prolongation of the Joint\nUndertaking in the field of Fuel Cells and Hydrogen launched under\nthe Seventh Framework Programme (2007-2013). Since its\nestablishment, the FCH 2 JU has demonstrated the potential of\nhydrogen as an energy carrier, and of fuel cells as energy\nconverters, to offer a pathway for clean systems that reduce\nemissions, enhance energy security, and stimulate the economy. The\ninterim evaluation of the FCH JU has shown that the JU has served\nas a platform for creating of a solid partnership, for leveraging\npublic and private funding and for the strong involvement of\nindustry, in particular SMEs.
\nAlthough the FCH sector has reached an advanced stage\nof innovation it is still a premature and vulnerable one.\nThe existence of a joint undertaking in the field of fuel cells and\nhydrogen is needed in order to:
\nIMPACT ASSESSMENT: the proposal is accompanied by a\nsummary of the impact\nassessment.
\nLEGAL BASIS: Articles 187 and Article 188 (first\nparagraph) of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union\n(TFEU).
\nCONTENT: the proposal seeks to create a joint\nundertaking in the field of Fuel Cells and Hydrogen 2 (the FCH 2\nJU) for a period running from 1 January 2014 to 31 December\n2024. The FCH 2 JU replaces and succeeds the previous FCH JU\nlaunched under the seventh framework programme.
\nThe general objective of\nthe proposed continuation of the Fuel Cells and Hydrogen (FCH) JU\nin Horizon 2020 is to contribute to implementing an optimal\nresearch and innovation programme at EU level and to develop a\nstrong, sustainable and globally competitive fuel cells and\nhydrogen sector in the Union, in particular to:
\nBUDGETARY IMPLICATION: the EU budget, totalling up to\nEUR 700 million at current prices (including EFTA), will\ncome from the Secure, clean and efficient energy and\nthe Smart, green and integrated transport Horizon 2020\nsocietal challenges budget.
\nThe administrative costs of the FCH 2 Joint\nUndertaking shall not exceed EUR 40 million and shall be covered in\ncash, on an annual basis, divided equally between the Union and the\nMembers other than the Union. The Union shall contribute with 50%,\nthe Industry Grouping with 43% and the Research Grouping with\n7%.
\nThe Committee on Industry, Research and Energy\nadopted, in the framework of a special legislative procedure\n(consultation of Parliament), the report by Vladko Todorov\nPANAYOTOV (ADLE, BG) on the proposal for a Council regulation on\nthe Fuel Cells and Hydrogen 2 Joint\nUndertaking.
\nThe committee approved the Commission proposal subject\nto the following amendments:
\nFCH 2 Joint Undertaking:\nin order to take account of the duration of the Horizon 2020 Framework\nProgramme for Research and Innovation (2014-2020), all calls for\nproposals should be launched by 31 December\n2020.
\nObjectives: the Joint\nUndertaking should have the following objectives:
\n\n· \ncontribute to the implementation of the Horizon\n2020 Framework Programme, and in particular at\nleast three of the specific\nobjectives under part III \"Societal\nChallenges;
\n\n· \ncontribute to the objectives of the Joint\nTechnology Initiative on Fuel Cells and Hydrogen, through\ndissemination and capacity building across the Member\nStates;
\n\n· \nincrease the energy efficiency of production of\nhydrogen from water electrolysis and from renewable energy\nsources while reducing capital and\noperational costs.
\n\n· \nstrengthen the connection between demonstration\nprojects and results and translation of those research results into\npilot applications and attractive market solutions;
\n\n· \ncontribute to developing denser infrastructure\nand to increasing public awareness and acceptance by transferring\nthe knowhow and expertise of the stronger performing Member\nStates to the weaker performing Member States by way\nof demonstrations and pilot projects and by\nWestEast centres,
\n\n· \nsupport development of advanced technologies for\nrecovery of metals, critical for the development and\ndeployment of FCH technologies from Union sources,\nincluding technological by-products and waste, and
\n\n· \nreduce the use of the \"critical raw\nmaterials\", as defined by the Commission, by\nidentifying relevant substitutes where technically feasible and\neconomically justifiable.
\nScope of activities:\nMembers inserted a new article to clarify the scope of activities\nof the Joint Undertaking, in particular with respect to the\nrelevant Technology Readiness Levels covered by its research\nprogramme. The Rules on Participation also call for a greater\nconsideration of the Technology Readiness Levels concept in\nrelation to funding levels, which is taken up in this article with\na view to the funding rates used in indirect actions.
\nFinancial contribution:\nthe maximum Union contribution, including contributions\nfrom countries of the European Free Trade Association\n(EFTA), to the FCH 2 Joint Undertaking to cover administrative costs and\noperational costs should be EUR 665 million (rather than EUR\n700 million in the Commission proposal). The contribution should be\npaid from the appropriations in the general budget of the Union\nallocated to the Horizon\n2020 Framework Programme and in particular from\nappropriations allocated to the specific objectives \"Secure, Clean and Efficient Energy and \"Smart,\ngreen and integrated transport\".
\nAdditional activities carried out by private\nmembers: while the additional activities to be carried out by\nprivate members are a welcome addition to the leverage effect of\nthe JTI, they should not be subject to auditing. Additional\nactivities should be planned and carried-out accordingly,\ndetermined clearly as in-kind contributions, and reported on\nannually.
\nEvaluation: by 30 June 2017 the Commission\nshall organise an independent interim\nevaluation of the Joint Undertaking. The results of the\nindependent interim evaluation should be taken into account in\nthe interim evaluation of Horizon 2020.
\nIn order to respond to unforeseen situations or\nto new developments and needs the Commission may, following\nthe interim evaluation of Horizon 2020 review the budget of the\nJoint Undertaking within the annual budgetary procedure.
\nRules for participation and\ndissemination: work plans\nmay provide for justified additional conditions\naccording to specific policy requirements or to the nature and\nobjective of the action, inter alia, that coordinators shall be\nconstituent entities of a Member of the FCH 2 Joint\nUndertaking other than the Union. This should under no\ncondition and throughout the programme raise undue conditions or\nrestrain that willing entities can become a constituent entity of a\nMember. The principles of openness and transparency shall\napply throughout the duration of the FCH 2 Joint\nUndertaking.
\nIn accordance with the principles of transparency and\nnon-discrimination, calls for proposals organised by the FCH 2\nJoint Undertaking shall be published on the web-based Horizon\n2020 Participant Portal.
\nDuty to divulge information: the report contains a new provision stating that\nMembers of the staff of the Joint Undertaking, the Executive\nDirector, and members of the Governing Board shall, without delay,\nreport such fraud as might have come to their knowledge in the\nperformance of their duties or office in OLAF provided that\nthis disclosure does not render them liable to\nprosecution.
