✦ Synopsis

The European Union (EU) has established the €470 M ($731 M) Joint Technology Initiative (JTI) involving academic and industry sectors, chiefly aiming to develop fuel cells and hydrogen technologies that could be marketed by 2010-2020. The project, which will be financed by the EU's Seventh Research Framework Programme, will be a combination of basic research, technology developments, and demonstration ventures. It also intends to organize the programmes in different EU countries and institutions to optimize synergies with member nations and regional efforts.
