The activities included in the first work programme of the Horizon 2020 Energy Challenge contribute to the three focus areas "Energy Efficiency", "Competitive Low-Carbon Energy" and "Smart Cities and Communities". These activities cover the full innovation cycle – from 'proof of concept' to applied research, pre-commercial demonstration and market uptake measures. They also exploit synergies with other relevant areas, e.g. information and communication technologies.:
