ForskEL - Farmhouse Design

Conclusion
The goal of this report was threefold. First, it presented and
then examined the organisational structure of the ForskEL and
ForskVE projects. Until now there does not exist any general
information about ForskEL and ForskVE. Second, this report
gave an overview of the network structure of ForskEL and
ForskVE projects, describing how the Danish energy sector is
interconnected in regard to R&D. This has also not been done
before and this gave knowledge about the ForskEL and Forsk-
VE network. Finally, the report provided the first performance
evaluation of almost hundred ForskEL and ForskVE projects.
This has also not been done before and the results are interesting
for future project evaluation, because it contributes with
deeper understanding of projects funded by Energinet.dk and
what these projects have produced on the short term.
In the future, there is a need for a larger performance evaluation
that examines the outcome of the projects on the short and
long term. This can give a better understanding to ForskEL and
ForskVE of which projects to give financial support, what the
projects need to fulfil their goals, and finally how to increase
the level of success of the final output.
