Annex 1 – Part 2 – point 1 – paragraph 12
Annex 1 – Part 2 – point 1 – paragraph 12
A major component of ‘'Leadership in Enabling and Industrial Technologies’' are Key Enabling Technologies (KETs), defined as micro- and nanoelectronics, photonics, nanotechnology, biotechnology, advanced materials and advanced manufacturing systems. These multi- disciplinary, knowledge and capital- intensive technologies cut across many diverse sectors providing the basis for significant competitive advantage for European industry. An integrated approach, promoting the combination, convergence and cross-fertilisation effect of KETs in different innovation cycles and value chains can deliver promising research results and open the way to new industrial technologies, products, services and novel applications (e.g. in space, transport, environment, health, agriculture etc.). The numerous interactions of KETs and enabling technologies will therefore be exploited in a flexible manner, as an important source of innovation. This will complement support for research and innovation in KETs that may be provided by national or regional authorities under the Cohesion Policy Funds within the framework of smart specialisation strategies.

Proposal for a regulation
Annex 1 – Part 2 – point 1 – point 1.4 – point 1.4.2 – paragraph 1
Annex 1 – Part 2 – point 1 – point 1.4 – point 1.4.2 – paragraph 1
Powered by the expansion of the knowledge of living systems, biotechnology is set to deliver a stream of new applications and to strengthen the Union's industrial base and its innovation capacity. Examples of the rising importance of biotechnology are in industrial and agricultural applications including food and feed production, bio- chemicals, of which the market share is estimated to increase by up to 12 %-20 % of chemical production by 2015. A number of the so-called twelve rules of Green Chemistry are also addressed by biotechnology, due to the selectivity and efficiency of bio-systems. The possible economic burdens for Union enterprises can be reduced by harnessing the potential of biotechnology processes and bio-based products to reduce CO2 emissions, estimated to range from between 1 to 2.5 billion tons CO2 equivalent per year by 2030.In Europe's biopharmaceutical sector, already some 20 % of the current medicines are derived from biotechnology, with up to 50 % of new medicines. Biotechnology also opens new avenues for exploiting the huge potential of marine resources for producing innovative industrial, health and environmental applications. The emerging sector of marine (blue) biotechnology has been predicted to grow by 10 % a year.

Amendment 1376 #
Proposal for a regulation
Annex 1 – Part 3 – point 2 – point 2.1 – paragraph 4
Annex 1 – Part 3 – point 2 – point 2.1 – paragraph 4
The potential of biological resources and ecosystems could be used in a much more sustainable, efficient and integrated manner. For examples, the potential of biomass from agriculture, forests and waste streams from agricultural, aquatic, industrial, and also municipal origins could be better harnessed
Amendment 1433 #
Proposal for a regulation
Annex 1 – Part 3 – point 2 – point 2.3 – point d – paragraph 1
Annex 1 – Part 3 – point 2 – point 2.3 – point d – paragraph 1
The aim is the promotion of low carbon, resource efficient, sustainable and competitive European bio-based industries. The activities shall focus on fostering the bio-economy by transforming conventional industrial processes and products into bio- based resource and energy efficient ones, the development of integrated biorefineries, producing and utilising biomass from primary production, biowaste and bio- based industry by- products, and opening new markets through supporting standardisation, regulatory and demonstration/field trial activities and others, while taking into account the implication of the bio-economy on land use and land use changes.
