Evaluation criteria



1st step: Assessment by independent experts



1st step: Assessment by independent experts


> For each sub criteria experts must provide a score out of six.

> The rounded average of the sub criteria scores is used as the score for the main criteria.

> Experts are said to be in agreement when their scores fall on the same side of the mid-point of the scale.

> If there is an outlying score (an expert scores the other side of the mid-point compared to the other two) that score is disregarded and not used in calculating the average value.

> A threshold for progression to the panel evaluation where for at least two major criteria, the average of the experts scores is 4.3* or greater, where there is agreement for the criteria in question.


2nd step: Scoring and ranking by independent panel


Funding of project applications

Only projects rated above the quality thresholds are recommended for funding

The funding of projects is following the ranking list until national budget exhaustion

The funding of partners is based on the national funding rules (info on Eurostars website)


Decentralised funding procedures



Evaluation timing

Time-to-contract is about 6 months

Eurostars success story

Picture

E! 9120 COHFTOOLNew manufacturing technologies and materials to increase the cost-efficiency of hot stamping

> Countries: South Korea, Spain> Total cost: 1,9 million

About the projectFour out of five partners in this project are research organisations based in Korea and span both the public and private sectors. They have teamed together with a Spanish partner, which core business is in advanced tools for the material forming industry, with a particular focus on steels and special alloys.

The MarketHot stamping is a hot topic for the steel industry: it allows to design car bodies while saving on weight and improving safety. A well developed European automotive market is in demand for this new technology, while recent forecasts see an increase of steel consumption in China up to 22 million tonnes in 2018.

The TechnologyModern hot stamping enables car manufacturers to form relatively complex parts in single step die, a method more efficient than most other stamping solutions. To achieve this in a cost-efficient way is the objective of the project partners.


Eurostars success story

E! 9507 MOSAICSManufacturing of sizable area and integrated dye-sensitized solar cells

> Countries: South Korea, Denmark, Spain, Sweden, Turkey> Total cost: 2,6 million

About the projectThis international project is led by a small Korean company, coordinating a group counting other small to mid-sized companies from Denmark, Spain, Sweden and Turkey and prestigious Korean Institutional and Academic partners. Through their combined capacities they plan to revolutionize photovoltaics.

The MarketBy collaborating together, the partners can access market which would have been otherwise difficult to seize.According to forecasts, solar panels representing up to 50,000 MW will be installed in Europe until 2018. Asia now also represents a high proportion of the worlds photovoltaic market (56%) and is growing fast.

The ImpactThe solar cells to be developed during the project is expected to become one of the most efficient third-generation solar technology available.
