I briefly present the European Solar Magnetometry Network as a contemporary example of solar physics collaboration across European borders, and I place it in larger-scale context by discussing the past and future of Europe-wide solar physics organization. Solar physics from space is inherently transnational but overall solar physics needs more European cohesion to gain most from EC policy trends towards "European research areas".

Traffic accidents are one of the major causes of deaths and injuries in Europe. A timely and efficient intervention of emergency services is crucial to save lives and reduce human suffering. In order to reduce the fatality rate in the EU the European Commission is working since 2009 to develop the eCall system. eCall is a project design for the improvement of road safety by providing rapid assistance to motorist involved in a collision anywhere is the European Union. In case of an accident the intended solution establishes automatically a communication with emergency services and sends a set of data such as location, vehicle type and other relevant information timely and reliably from the in-vehicle system (IVS) over the cellular network. This paper provides a general vision of how it works and different kinds of eCall. In addition, it describes the studies that have taken place to validate the deployment of eCall based on 112 across Europe and introduces some future targets.

This paper presents the content of the 6th Framework Programme of the European Commission for technology research and development in the field of energy. These energy research activities are put in the more general context of energy policy and research policy. From this point of view, the paper also explains how this contributes to and constitutes an essential element of the more general European Research Area initiative, in its attempt to solve the problems of fragmentation and duplication of efforts of research and technology development in Europe. Concentrating on energy research, it shows how the priorities selected for the sixth Framework Programme can make a contribution to a smooth transition towards a sustainable energy future.

The paper covers European Commission policy on the emerging solar cell technology based on perovskites. As perovskite photovoltaics was identified as one of just 12 Key Enabling Technologies (KETs) for the European Union to be able to achieve and sustain global technological supremacy, it is considered a strategic area for the European development. Perovskite solar cells demonstrated spectacular growth of efficiencies from 2.6% back in 2006 up to 25% (in pure perovskites) and ca. 30% (in tandem) in 2020. The competition is fierce internationally (with Asian companies investing strongly in pilot production lines) but Europe has secured a forward position with early undertaken R&D and has a chance to successfully secure a leading position in this technological international race in PV and more generally in renewables, repositioning itself in global value chains after over a decade of surrendering the field in PV modules production. Perovskite solar cells are becoming very attractive for commercialization (especially for smart buildings) not only due to cheap costs of fabrication (full printing in roll-to-roll configurations) but also due to material properties (semi-transparent and elastic thin-films).
