Make sure they are identical with your final version of your Part C! Note: In case of discrepancies the detailed financial information of Part C prevails. More details on the A3 form are given with in Section IV "Instructions for Part C - the detailed budget" in this Guide.

Instructions for Part B – Description for the action This section should be a maximum of 1.5 pages Please give a short summary of your proposal. This summary should be copied into EPSS - Form A1. Note that Form A1 has two sections, each with a limit of 2000 characters. This summary will be the 'business card' of your proposal and is a relevant part in the evaluation of your proposal. It must be coherent with the detailed description of the action. Bear in mind that it should be self-explanatory and easy to understand. (a) Abstract The abstract should provide at a glance the reader with a clear understanding of the objectives of the proposal and their relevance to the IEE 2013 Work programme, as well as the key steps required to achieve the objectives. It should express the actual benefit to your target audience and changes which will occur due to the proposed activities. This section will be used as the short description in the evaluation process and in communications with the IEE Programme Committee and other interested parties. It should therefore be complete, short and precise and not contain any confidential information. (b) Major outputs & expected results You should list up to 5 key outputs, plus the main impacts (i.e. results) by the end of your action. The information must be coherent with the table "Specific Objectives, Key Outputs, Impacts and Performance Indicators within the duration of the action" as provided in section 4.

Composition of the Consortium Award criterion 4 and 5 / This section should be a maximum of 2 pages – including the table. (a) List of Participants: Please provide the following list of participants: Part. N° Participant name Short name Country code Profile of the organisation* Main role in the Consortium** * Please indicate the type of organisation, for instance Public authority (National, regional, local), energy Agency, ESCO, consumer association, bank, consultancy, industry, housing association etc. [be aware, this is a non-exhaustive list] ** Please provide the main role/expertise offered by each partner (e.g. communication expert, technical expert, training provider, financial engineering, policy expert, market actor, etc.). Do not use work package numbers, tasks numbers, WP leader, etc. (b) Rationale for the composition of the consortium: ƒExplain why you have formed this specific consortium; ƒOutline the role and added value of each participant; ƒExplain how the composition of the consortium matches the objectives of the action; ƒDescribe how they are suited, and committed, to the tasks assigned to them.

Objectives, Impacts and Performance Indicators Award criteria 1 and 3 / This section should be a maximum of 2 pages - excluding the tables. In this section you will need to present what you expect your action to achieve and how you intend to evaluate its impact. Firstly, you need to set the objectives of your action. Objectives present the overall goal of the action and address identified problems or barriers. You need to set your objectives on two levels (specific and strategic). Be focused and keep your objectives to a manageable and meaningful number; not more than 3 to 5 objectives at each level (i.e. 6 – 10 objectives in total): (a) your specific objectives (during the action): What are you trying to achieve during the life-time of your action, In which way is your action consistent with the IEE call priorities? Which contribution will this action make to EU policies and priorities, targets and legislation? (b) your strategic objectives (for the longer term - to 2020): What are your expectations from your action until the year 2020 in view of the EU targets Remember that your action must include activities to ensure its sustainability and to have an impact after the IEE funding ends. Then, you need to assess the expected impact of your action based on a bottom-up approach.

(c) Overview tables with key outputs, impacts, performance indicators and targets In order to assess the changes caused by your action it is important to understand the relation between its inputs, activities, outputs, impacts, performance indicators and targets. ƒInputs are the resources required to deliver your action. These are set out in Part C of your proposal. ƒActivities are the tasks or processes undertaken. These are set out in the work packages in Section 7 'Work Programme' of your proposal. ƒOutputs are the direct products and services that your action will deliver. ƒImpacts are identifiable changes which demonstrate the extent to which your activities have an effect on your target: - Creating favourable market conditions - Shaping policy development and implementation Preparing the ground for investments ƒBuilding capacity and skills ƒInforming stakeholders and fostering commitment ƒThese changes – the impacts of your action - can take place during its lifetime (specific impacts) or beyond its lifetime (strategic impacts). ƒPerformance indicators should be used to determine the success of your action in reaching its objectives and creating an impact. Describe these performance indicators in the tables below and quantify them – with targets - to measure the impacts of your action. ƒThe changes caused by your action include quantifiable energy-related impacts both within the duration of the action and beyond its lifetime, known as IEE Common performance indicators. These are the sustainable energy investments triggered, renewable energy production, primary energy savings, and reduction of green house gas emission, demonstrating the contribution to the EU energy targets. ƒYou need to provide an estimation of the IEE Common performance indicators, based on robust assumptions and a credible baseline.

Target Groups and Key Actors / Letters of Support Award criteria 1, 2 and 5 / This section should be a maximum of 2 pages - including the table. Their involvement must be relevant and reflected by specific activities in your work programme, whilst matching the objectives of your proposal. You may wish to provide letters of support from your target groups and key actors. Depending on the topic and the composition of the consortium key actors and target groups might overlap or sometimes could even be the same. Letters of support:Letters from relevant target groups and key actors supporting your proposal or demonstrating interest in its results. Provide a list of them in the table below. (a) Target Group(s): Set limits and focus on your essential target group(s). A good practice rule is to have a maximum of 3 target groups, but this will depend on your proposed action. Describe how your target group was involved in your proposal preparation. List in the overview table below the main group(s) that your proposal aims to reach (e.g. architects, bankers, local policy makers, urban planners, utilities, ESCOs, social housing companies, householders, installers, transport operators, etc.). (b) Key Actors: Limit yourself to the essential key actors Describe how your key actors were involved in your proposal preparation. (c) Letters of support: Make sure that these letters are specific to the proposal and that they are concrete about the nature of the involvement/support/interest.

Award criterion (max of 2 pages) This section needs to explain briefly why it is important that your action is carried out on the European level compared to a series of local, regional or national actions. In this section you need to explain the rationale behind each of the three sub-criteria: (a)Evidence of the benefit of EU collaboration: What will be the added value of this European collaboration compared to separate local or national actions? Is this collaboration clearly demonstrated in the specific activities of your work programme? (b) Geographical focus: What are the exact target areas (countries, regions, etc) that your action is addressing? Why did you choose this particular focus? How is this choice in line with the actions objectives? (c) Transferability: What are the potential and the conditions for transferring the results to those parts of the EU which are not directly covered by your proposal? What are your plans and activities in your Work Programme to initiate this transfer? Please note that this section of your proposal should be concise. The award criterion 4 "EU Added Value" is also evaluated based on Section 2 (Composition and Rationale for the Consortium) and on the work programme

Work Programme The work programme describes the tasks you propose to perform during the course of the action and services/deliverables produced. Keep in mind the specific and strategic objectives of your proposal. Introduction to the Work Programme (max. 2 pages) (a) Rationale and structure of your work programme: Explain briefly the rationale and structure of the work programme: main phases of the action, logics and links between work packages. (b) Flow chart of your work programme: Provide a flow chart, showing the logic of your work programme. Work Packages This will be a critical part of your proposal, describing your planned activities. You will need to break them into work packages. (WP) WP represent major, natural packages of your proposed action. The size should be about 3-5 pages per WP Work Package N° 1 Management: consortium management, including consortium meetings, monitoring and evaluation of progress/results and reporting; Work Package N° n-1 Communication activities: covers the specific communication activities in your proposal; Work Package N° n IEE common dissemination activities: covers specific requests from the EACIand pre-defined standard activities for all IEE actions

Work Package 1: Management Describe the organisational structure and decision-making mechanisms of the action. It is recommended to provide a management chart visualising the partners and reporting channels. Describe the management and coordination tasks; whilst designing this work package, address the following important questions: How will you work together – internally within the consortium? How will you communicate within the consortium and how will you maintain good communications between the project meetings? How will the consortium review and ensure the quality of the work and the results? How will you monitor, evaluate and document the impacts of your action via the progress of each of the performance indicators, including the IEE Common Performance Indicators? How will you ensure that real trans-national cooperation takes place? (for example: it is not considered trans-national when organisations from different countries only work in parallel on the same issues). Have a contingency plan: list the critical steps/moments where the action could fail and how you propose to mitigate these risks (please foresee a risk management task). Note: Do not underestimate the importance of well-planned internal communication in a team carrying out an action on a European level. (ex meetings, consider internal project websites, teleconferences and other ICT tools, etc. as possible communication channels. It is recommended to arrange project meetings regularly - at least every six months. Where external actors are crucial for the success of the action, the setting up of advisory boards or local support groups could help to ensure their involvement in the management. Where there is no management involvement, work with external key actors should be part of the other work packages.

Work Package n-1: Communication Professional communication with your target group is key to the impact of your action and to the success of the IEE programme. It is essential that your proposal includes a tailor-made communication plan. Please make sure that all the proper components for communicating with your target groups are foreseen in this work plan. Describe its individual elements. You should provide deeper insight to the parts that are essential to the success of the action. Communicate your messages and your vision: place your target group and objectives at the core of your communication activities. Make sure your communication work plan is prepared as professionally as all other work packages. Be targeted and focussed – choose your communication tools and channels to fit to the needs/benefits of your target group(s) and key actors. Be audience-driven, relevant to the target group and pro-active. Communicate right from the start of the action. Moreover, foresee in the work plan sufficient time to disseminate and transfer the action's results. Demonstrate links between the other work packages and your communication plan and vice-versa. Measure the effectiveness of your communications, e.g. monitor the traffic on your website, plan the evaluation of workshops and trainings, monitor the media coverage, etc. Ensure a European visibility, but remain cost-efficient

Work Package n: IEE Common Dissemination Activities The EACI foresees dissemination activities for all IEE actions and in particular for specific programme areas (project families) in order to enhance synergies, promote the actions in important European events, provide information to the central IEE programme web-site, participation in contractors' meetings and promotion of the actions via different media tools. The ultimate aim of this work is to enhance the visibility of the IEE actions and, in turn, to contribute to their dissemination and the promotion of their results at all levels. Your contribution to the IEE common dissemination activities will consist of participation in contractors' meetings as well as responding to specific requests from the EACI to provide information about the action. These contributions are only upon request of the EACI. It is therefore necessary to include limited but adequate resources in your proposal for these activities. As a general rule, please foresee no more than about 100 hours per year of the action (of the co-ordinator or shared, if appropriate, with additional 1-2 key partners), travel costs for 1 travel per year of the action and some other specific costs for presentations. The content of this work package is given below. It is standard for all actions. Please do not change this standard text. This work package does not replace your own communication work package (see previous section), but it is complementary to it.

Overview of Deliverables List the deliverables of each work package in the following summary table. They should be identical with those in the work packages and vice versa. Provide here the appropriate key (descriptive) information for each deliverable. Important note on deliverables: Limit the number of deliverables and do not include minor sub-items (such as invitations to workshops) or internal working papers (such as internal coordination reports). Similar deliverables for several countries should be grouped, where appropriate. A Result-Oriented Report is required. This report is the main document to inform the target groups about the achievements of the action. It presents results, lessons learnt and impacts. Concerning the dissemination level, it is expected that all deliverables will be publicly available and free of charge for potential users. If appropriate, the dissemination of some deliverables could be limited to a target group, but please justify. Should you wish exceptionally to define a deliverable as confidential, you must provide a justification. In exceptional cases, deliverables can be offered for sale but it must be clearly justified. Revenues must be budgeted and by no means may the action generate profit. Justifications are to be given in the relevant work package. The table "Overview of deliverables" and the "Schedule" must indicate the month of completion of the deliverable; for public deliverables (PU) this should coincide with their availability e.g. for distribution via the website/mail shot/press releases etc. Note that the technical progress reports (PR), interim reports (IR) or final reports (FR) for the EACI, as well as deliverables from the IEE Common Dissemination Activities, do not need to be included in the List of Deliverables.
