<strong>Energy</strong> <strong>RTD</strong> <strong>Information</strong> <strong>Systems</strong> <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>ERA</strong><br />

<strong>in</strong>formation comb<strong>in</strong>ed with <strong>the</strong> possibility to get more detailed <strong>in</strong>formation with, for example<br />

reports, l<strong>in</strong>ks, etc.<br />

‘Quality’ and ‘Up to date’ is more important than ‘Detail’, as <strong>the</strong> detail should be ga<strong>in</strong>ed by use<br />

of o<strong>the</strong>r sources (e.g. reports, l<strong>in</strong>ks to websites and databases). Quality <strong>in</strong> this respect is strongly<br />

related to accuracy. The period <strong>in</strong> which <strong>in</strong>formation should be updated is related to <strong>the</strong> k<strong>in</strong>d of<br />

<strong>in</strong>formation.<br />
