With the beginning of the year 2005 a new platform was established with the ambition to boost technology demonstration in the field of soil and groundwater remediation. EURODEMO is a Co-ordination action funded by the European Union's Research Directorate, including a large European consortium which covers the whole spectrum of relevant stakeholders. Top priorities of the project are to make demonstration of promising soil and groundwater technologies easier to implement, to harmonise performance evaluation of demonstrated technologies and to generate an overview of existing funding opportunities and already demonstrated technologies. Furthermore, EURODEMO shall make sure that investors obtain a better overview of the innovation potential in Europe and shall pave the way for transnational co-operation and joint funding of technology demonstration.
