The second largest group is universities. They are mainly responsible for project in basic research and applied research. Finally, RTOs are the second smallest group with 8% and they are mostly represented in applied research confirming their role as the mediator between universities and private companies. Energy areas and the technology development phases It is interesting to examine where the different energy areas are represented in the technological development phases, because it is relevant to illustrate the position of different technologies and compare them. Table 2 shows the projects divided into phases and energy areas. The table does not illustrate the development over time, because it only sums up all the projects from 1998-2013. However, it can be concluded that the table does show some kind of progress, especially with the technologies that are represented through all the technological development phases such as biomass. All energy areas besides Biofuel, Control and regulation, Demand and regulation and Electricity storage are represented in all the technology phases. This indicates the possibility of some of the supported projects from ForskEL and ForskVE have progressed through time. However, since 2009 there has been a drastic decrease of projects in basic research supported by ForskEL and ForskVE. A reason for this can be that all the energy programmes have made a more clearly division of the different phases in technological development between the programmes, meaning that some of the programmes have their primary focus on basic research and others in demonstration. ForskEL and ForskVE are primarily in the area of applied research and demonstration. Furthermore, as expected, table 3 shows that the privately held companies primarily are represented in applied research and demonstration. However, the table also shows that private companies were engaged in basic research. A reason for this can be that private companies in the energy sector have employees that have the technological expertise and competences to engage in projects in the area of basic research. The table also shows as expected that the involvement of research institutions decreases through the phases. 26
