The indices and underlying datasets are not always available at the desired level of granularity, or consistently updated. Europe) rather than the EU as one entity and cover the entire economy and not specific sectors (i.e. They address countries or geographical areas (i.e. The majority of existing competitiveness indices are composite indicators built on a number of variables. Nonetheless, it is always conceived, and evaluated, in comparison to the performance of others. EU market leadersĬompetitiveness is a multi-dimensional concept, which can be applied and measured at different levels of economic analysis. Number of companies in the supply chain, incl. Value chain analysis of the energy technology sector Technology analysis Current situation and outlookĢ.
Table 1 Grid of indicators to monitor progress in competitiveness 6ĮU's clean energy industry's competitivenessġ. Global market analysis by comparing it with other key regions (e.g. Technology analysis – state of play and outlook The analysis is based on a range of competitiveness indicators, which are analysed through three steps: II) Analysis assessing the competitiveness of 18 clean and low carbon energy technologies and cross cutting topics (part 3) I) Macroeconomic analysis assessing the overall competitiveness of the European clean and low carbon energy sector (part 2) The present Staff Working Document is structured in the same way as the CPR, and analyses competitiveness of the European clean and low carbon energy sector as follows: For the purpose of this report, competitiveness of the clean energy sector is understood as “the capacity to i) produce affordable, reliable and accessible clean energy through clean energy technologies ii) use clean energy productively and iii) compete in energy and energy technology markets, with the overall aim of bringing benefits to the EU economy and people”. There are various definitions of competitiveness in the literature 4, while “there is no single indicator that captures the essence of its meaning for an economy” 5. Further technologies will be addressed in future Competitiveness reports. It includes all the data supporting the arguments made in the Progress Report, as well as assessment of further key clean and low carbon energy technologies 3.
The Clean Energy Transition – Technologies and Innovations Report (CETTIR) is the underpinning analysis to the first annual Competitiveness Progress Report 1 (CPR) based on the results of the Low Carbon Energy Observatory 2. List of missing indicators for specific technologies/topics
