Yes, I do have a question.
Today's topic is being discussed against the backdrop of climate change. We want to generate energy as ecologically as possible in order to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions. You claim that you set your priorities based on the needs expressed by industries. I take it by that you mean well-established industries capable of stating their requirements. This isn't necessarily the case for other sectors, such as the solar energy or geothermal energy sectors. According to witnesses, they don't necessarily get the full attention they deserve in order to flourish and develop on the R&D side and to attract manufacturers and consumers alike.
In terms of your budget, how much money would you need to truly expand research efforts in the field of solar and geothermal energy and to make these sectors attractive options? How much more money would you need to speed up the process and to develop this sector from a technological standpoint, when we talk about integration with the electrical grid and about everything that's now going on right now? What needs to be done in order to take this major step forward? Fundamentally, I don't think time is on our side and I think we need to step things up a notch. Ideally, what would like to see happen?
