o
For the purpose of communication with project partners for example or other members of
the project manager’s organisation, Energinet.dk will make project rooms available,
containing (among other things) document libraries and discussion forums.
A project room for each application will automatic be established with the generation of
any new application.
The project administrator is established as the administrator of the project room and can
then invite other participants.
In the project space, documents can be uploaded and discussions can be held in the
discussion forums.
The project rooms are an offer made available by Energinet.dk for the purpose of
alleviating the project management and coordination work of applicants.
Terms and conditions
o
o
o
The use of project rooms is optional and has no impact on the assessment of project
applications submitted.
The project administrator is responsible for ensuring that the project space is not used for
illegal purposes and that the content (in the form of discussions and uploaded material) is
not illegal or harmful to others.
Illegal material includes:

Content which is illegal, harmful, threatening, insulting, harassing, unlawful,
defamatory, vulgar, obscene, slanderous, in violation of privacy, hateful or
reprehensible from a racial, ethnic or other view.

Content which infringes on the patents, trade marks, trade secrets, copyright or other
rights of any other party.
Material containing program virus or other computer codes, files or programs
intended to interrupt, damage, destroy or limit the functionality of computer
software, computer hardware or telecommunication equipment.
Users of project rooms must possess the rights to any material uploaded.
ForskEL and Energinet.dk will not gain ownership of the material and will not assess it.
Energinet.dk is not obligated to monitor the project rooms, but users must accept that
the project spaces may be monitored by Energinet.dk in order to prevent misuse and
shut down unused project spaces.
Project spaces deemed to be unused will be shut down after advance notification in the
form of an email to the project administrator.
Project spaces found to be used for illegal purposes will be shut down without warning
and may be reported to the proper authorities.
Monitoring will only be performed by website administrators from Energinet.dk’s
department of IT and infrastructure.
Administrative officers and reviewers will not have access to view material in the project
rooms allocated to applicants.
The evaluation of applications will only be based on the official project application and
appendices uploaded and submitted to the ForskEL administration via the applications
project site as well as information stated in the on-line data sheet form.
