The EU-strategy for a Digital Single Market (DSM) proposes measures to seize opportunities and challenges from the transformational changes that internet and digital technologies are creating across all sectors of the European economy and society. It aims at providing better access for consumers and businesses to online goods and services, creating the right conditions for digital networks and services, and maximising the growth potential of the European Digital Economy.

Since its launch in 2013, the Connecting Europe Facility (CEF) has been a key funding instrument supporting the development of high performing, sustainable and efficiently interconnected trans-European networks in the areas of transport, energy and telecommunications. To ensure timely deployment and development of the necessary infrastructure and services to establish a DSM, in 2014 the EU adopted a Regulation on guidelines for trans-European networks in the area of telecommunications infrastructure (the Guidelines). In 2017 the Regulation was amended1 to include the Wifi4EU initiative to promote internet connectivity in local communities.

In the area of telecommunications, the deployment of Digital Service Infrastructures (DSIs) supports the development and smooth functioning of the DSM by facilitating delivery of trans-European digital services for citizens, business and/or governments, and supporting the vision of public services being not only digital by default but also cross-border.

building block DsIs (such as eDelivery, eTranslation, eIdentification, eSignature or eInvoicing) provide basic functionality and can be reused, including by sector-specific DSIs, to facilitate the delivery of cross-border interoperable digital public services. Sector-specific DSIs, providing trans-European interoperable online services for citizens, businesses and public administrations, include for example Europeana (in the domain of cultural heritage), eHealth and eJustice. The main focus is on providing services which are ready to be deployed. The vision is that by 2020, CEF Telecom will be delivering concrete benefits to citizens, businesses and administrations across the EU via mutually reinforcing and complementary digital infrastructures, including supercomputers and broadband networks, making the DSM more effective, and contributing to economic growth.

CEF Telecom has already had a significant impact in multiple policy areas. The Commission2 has highlighted the role of CEF in supporting the transition towards interoperable and standardised eHealth solutions; and in the preparation of the European Data Infrastructure to put in place a High Perfomance Computing (HPC) environment for data-related service and activities, which is promoted under the Public Open Data DSI. In the Tallinn Declaration3 on eGovernment of October 2017, EU Member States recognised the importance of CEF Telecom for modernising public administrations and committed to re-using CEF Infrastructure – in particular eID, eSignature, eDelivery, eProcurement and eInvoicing – and promoting their use in more domains.

Foreword

ForEworD / 5

Of the €1.06 billion budget earmarked for trans-European networks in the telecommunications sector for 2014-2020, over €704 million are dedicated to DSIs. These include the ‘Core service Platforms’ (CSP) – central hubs enabling trans-European connectivity and implemented by the European Commission – and ‘Generic services’ – linking national infrastructures to the CSP, using grants through calls for proposals as a financial incentive.

Since 2014, the Innovation and Networks Executive Agency (INEA) has been implementing the CEF Programme via grants. For CEF Telecom, this includes managing calls for proposals and external evaluations for generic services, and the subsequent technical and financial follow up of the selected actions with the beneficiaries. Forty six calls for proposals from five CEF Telecom Annual Work Programmes (WP2014-2018) have been published so far, making available a budget of nearly 300M€.

The current portfolio of 390 actions covers fifteen different DSIs receiving EU funding of €230 million4. This brochure presents an overview of the actions co-funded to date5, including the status of each specific DsI.

A further €58 million is available to support actions to be selected under the remaining calls from the 2018 Work Programme. For the final two years of the CEF Telecom programme (2019-2020), over €100 million are estimated to fund calls for both existing and new DSI generic services. In addition, with a total budget of €120 million, the WiFi4EU initiative will reinforce local wireless Internet connectivity in local communities across the EU, thereby complementing the connectivity underpinning the public services provided in those communities. A first call for proposals was launched in November 2018 for a total budget of €42 million amounting to 2,800 vouchers.

We are committed to ensuring that CEF continues providing the necessary stimulus to all the Digital Infrastructures that Europe needs to live up the Digital Single Market.

The CEF eID building block helps public administrations and private online service providers to easily extend the use of their online services to citizens from other EU Member States The CEF eSignature building block supports the use of electronic signatures across EU Member States by helping public administrations and businesses to accelerate the creation and verification of electronic signatures.

The eID and eSignature building blocks are underpinned by the eIDAS Regulation 910/2014, which provides for the mutual recognition of eID schemes and interoperability of eSignatures across Europe.

CEF grants support the Member States in the roll-out of the eIDAS Network (so called eIDAS nodes) and connection of online services (provided by public and private sectors) to this network, making these services accessible across borders.

Under CEF grants, 21 Member States have been setting up and/or operating their eIDAS nodes, with 10 Member State authorities connecting public online services to those nodes. Further connections with the eIDAS Network have also been established by the private providers representing for example banking, cloud platforms and postal operators. Moreover, student mobility is supported by putting in place solutions that enable students to identify in a trusted manner across borders. Finally, CEF grants enable attributes, mandates and authorities to be associated with electronic identities for cross-border use through the eIDAS nodes and deploy eSignature solutions.

This Action aims at promoting the interoperable use of and uptake of CEF eID in the Higher Education sector and facilitating the technical intero-perability between eIDAS and eduGAIN (service interconnecting research and education identity federations).

It will enable cross-border electronic identification and authentication in Higher Education Institutions from Spain, Norway, and Greece through the eIDAS network, as well as the exchange of simple domain-specific attri-butes in compliance with the eIDAS framework, and beyond the minimal eIDAS attributes set. Specifically, it will connect the IT infrastructure of the partner universities to the local eIDAS nodes and demonstrate the benefits of the eIDAS enabled eID in the academic sector, by enabling the secure exchange of academic information between academic institutions participating in the Erasmus+ Programme. To achieve this, the Action will implement an education sector-specific Hub to minimize the integration cost with eIDAS.

Through these two Actions, 90 municipalities have been connected to the Dutch eIDAS node. This opens up more than 200 public services provided by those municipalities to cross-border authentication in line with the eIDAS Regulation. These connections were established by Connectis, which is one of the Identity Brokers of the Dutch Electronic Access Services Framework (EAS) with the support of the municipalities’ portal suppliers.

The Actions also prepared the software, infrastructure and documentation required to connect public service providers. Extensive support was provided to the municipalities to connect, maintain and if necessary upgrade the connections. Finally, both Actions had a strong focus on communication, in order to raise awareness regarding the cross-border electronic identification, as well to accelerate the usage of eID among private and public service providers.

The CEF eDelivery building block supports public administrations to exchange electronic data and documents with other public administrations, businesses and citizens, in an interoperable, secure, reliable and trusted way. This is done by creating a secure channel for the transmission of documents and data across EU borders and sectors, over the internet or via a private network, providing evidence relating to the handling of the transmitted data as well as protecting it against the risk of loss, theft, damage or any unauthorised alterations.

eDelivery prescribes technical specifications that can be used in any EU or national policy domain (Justice, Procu-rement, Consumer Protection, etc.). As a result, organisations that have developed their IT systems independently from each other can start to securely communicate with one another once they have connected to an eDelivery node.

Both eDelivery and the AS4 profile of eDelivery are available free of charge, and CEF funding and support servi-ces are in place to facilitate the deployment of necessary software solutions.

eDelivery is also already being used in other DSIs including the Business Registers Interconnection System (BRIS), the Online Dispute Resolution (ODR) platform, the Electronic Exchange of Social Security Information (EESSI) project and the eJustice Portal.

eInvoicing

member statesnumber of projects CEF funding (€ thousand)

The CEF eInvoicing building block serves to support public administrations in complying with the EU eInvoicing Directive 2014/55/EU (in particular the EN – new European standard on electronic invoicing). It promotes the uptake and use of eInvoicing solutions by public authorities and helps public authorities, service and solution providers to adapt their services to support the new EN. Following the adoption of the EN by the European Committee of Standardization (CEN), the standard was published by the European Commission on 17 October 2017 in the Official Journal of the European Union.

The actions funded further to the 2015 - 2017 eInvoicing calls include the uptake of eInvoicing tools compliant with the European standard by the public authorities (on a central and local level), the upgrade of the existing solution (public and well as private) to ensure compliance with the European standard, work on aligning the national standards with the European standard, integration of eInvoicing solution providers with the public authorities, suppliers on-boarding, interoperability testing as well as deployment of eDelivery for the purpose of document delivery.

Two actions have been supporting the Italian implementation of the eInvoicing Directive 2014/55/EU. The national eInvoicing exchange system (SDI) has been upgraded to ensure that Italian public sector is able to receive EN compliant eInvoices. This was achieved by integrating the Invoice Mapper Framework (eInvoice converter) in the SDI, allowing the economic operators to choose an eInvoice syntax and any delivery channel available in the SDI for exchanging EN compliant eInvoices.

Moreover, the e-invoicing tools of Unioncamere and platforms of Intercent-ER (service provider of e-procurement service for public sector) and Infocert’s (key player in the e-invoicing and trust services) were upgraded for EN support, and specific services targeting SMEs are being put in place to facilitate and promote the use of the EN.

Alignment to the EN of the FatturaPA XML as well as the consolidation of the Italian Core Invoice Usage Specifications (CIUS) of the EN is also being carried out. Finally, the eDelivery DSI will be deployed for the exchange of electronic invoices.

The Business registers Interconnection System (BrIS), is an information system interconnecting the central, commercial and companies registers (business registers) of all Member States through the European Central Platform (ECP).

The interconnection includes the e-Justice portal, which serves as the European electronic access point providing transparent and up-to-date information on EU companies to the wider public, thereby enhancing confidence in the single market. Moreover, it enables EU business registers to communicate with each other in a safe, secure and rapid manner and to exchange data regarding cross-border mergers and branches located in other EU Member States. As a result, the administrative burden on public organisations and EU companies will be minimized substantially.

The calls under BRIS have evolved from targeting interconnectivity to the maintenance and update of the interconnection achieved in previous actions.

The Cybersecurity Digital Service Infrastructure (DSI) is underpinned by the European Union approach to Cybersecurity. The DSI contributes to the EU preparedness to deal with cyber threats, in line with the 2017 Joint Communication on building strong cybersecurity for the EU (JOIN(2017) 450 final), by supporting the implementation of the Directive on security of network and information systems (NIS Directive, 2016/1148).

The Directive provides legal measures to boost the overall level of cybersecurity in the EU, encompassing the need for well-resourced Member State computer security incident response teams (CSIRTs) and swift and effective operational cooperation between them.

CSIRTs have received funding to create, maintain or expand national capacities to run cybersecurity services and to co-operate across borders. Their operational cooperation is facilitated by interacting with the core service platform co-operation mechanism of the cybersecurity DSI, MeliCERTes, which supports information sharing and maturity development for CSIRTs. MeliCERTes provides CSIRTs under the NIS Directive with a common baseline set of tools so as to facilitate a shared understanding of artefacts, threats and incidents, provide secure communications and enhance data exchange between them.

In the future, the cybersecurity DSI will also expand to other areas, particularly for improving capabilities to other NIS Directive stakeholders.

Electronic Exchange of Social Security Information (EESSI) is a digital service infrastructure (DSI) which improves cross-border communication between the social security institutions across the EU, as required by the EU rules on social security coordination.

The EESSI electronic communication (Core) platform allows national social security administrations to benefit from a secure, efficient, accurate and standardised data exchange in cross-border social security coordination cases. The exchanged information covers all branches of social security. An enhanced and more effective communication process will reduce administrative burden and the duration of case handling. Moreover, EU residents living, working or travelling in another EU country will benefit from a strengthened protection of their social security rights through a faster management of their applications and faster calculation and payment of their benefits.

Actions supported under the 2016 and 2017 calls aim to facilitate the connection of national systems to the EESSI platform to ensure interoperability and communication as well as the business implementation of the EESSI project.

The CEF eHealth Digital Service Infrastructure (eHDSI) facilitates the movement of health data across national borders, thus ensuring the continuity of care and the safety of citizens seeking healthcare outside their home country.

The actions supported by the eHDSI aim at setting up the necessary Member State infrastructure for such a data exchange. They also support infrastructure enabling sustainable patient access to highly specialized care.

The objective of the 37 eP/PS actions funded- was the set-up and operation of National Contact Points for eHealth (NCPeH) for the exchange of health data and the provision of cross-border ePrescription/eDispensation and Patient Summary services. Several NCPeHs were successfully set up and the first Member States are expected to start exchanging health data by mid-2019.

The 2017 CEF Telecom eHealth call extended the financial support to the European Reference Networks (ERNs), with the objective of connecting designated healthcare providers and centres of expertise in different Member States in the area of rare, low prevalence and complex disease and conditions.

Cross-border ePrescription/eDispensation and Patient Summary services Cross-border ePrescriptions/eDispensations (eP) service will allow a patient being abroad to receive the equivalent medication that he would receive in his home country.

The Patient Summary (PS) services will provide a health professional with access to the verified key health data of a patient needing unplanned cross-border healthcare.

The objective of PS and eP actions funded under the 2015 and 2017 eHealth calls is to support Member States in establishing the National Contact Points for eHealth (NCPeH). This is the necessary IT component, based on the so-called OpenNCP software, for being part of the secure peer-to-peer network allowing the exchange of patient’s data for the purpose of PS and eP services. The Core Service Platform for eP and PS provides the maintenance, evolution, operation, change management of OpenNCP software and supports Member States in the implementation of the NCPeH.

European Reference Networks

European Reference Networks (ERNs) are virtual networks bringing together healthcare providers and centres of expertise across Europe to tackle complex or rare medical conditions that require specialised treatment and a concentration of knowledge and resources. In 2017, over 900 highly-specialised medical teams joined forces within 24 ERNs1.

The goal of the 24 ERN actions funded under the 2017 eHealth CEF call is to ensure adequate and efficient use of the ERN Core Services, i.e. the Clinical Patient Management System (CPMS) and ERN Collaborative Platform (CP), by the members of the ERNs. While the CP supports users in their administrative and collaboration tasks, the CPMS focuses on the actual diagnosis and treatment for patients by providing tools for cooperation and virtual consultations. In addition, the CPMS will be an important element for supporting European clinical research.

online Dispute resolution (oDr)In July 2013, a Directive on consumer Alternative dispute resolution (ADR) (2013/11/EU) and a Regulation on consumer Online dispute resolution (ODR) (524/2013) entered into force. The ODR Regulation provides for the establishment of an EU-wide online Dispute resolution platform (ODR platform) to facilitate the resolution of online contractual disputes.

online Dispute resolution (oDr) DSI aims at fostering out-of-court, online resolution of disputes between EU consumers and traders. Through ODR, EU consumers and businesses can have their disputes regarding online purchases dealt with entirely online via the ODR platform. While boosting e-commerce, particularly across bor-ders, ODR increases trust of both EU consumers and businesses in the Single Market by enabling a simple, fast and low- cost out-of-court procedure for resolving disputes.

CEF funding supports national ADR entities and national online gateways linking such entities to become inte-roperable with the central, EU-wide oDr platform, including the use of e-Delivery. The oDr platform was specifically designed to help consumers and traders resolve their contractual disputes about online purchases of goods and services out-of-court at a low cost in a simple and fast way. It allows consumers to submit their complaint online and have it dealt with online in any of the official languages of the European Union by a national ADR entity.

Public open data refers to all the information that public bodies produce, collect or pay for. This data has significant economic potential for re-use in new products and services, and for efficiency gains in administrations. The Public open Data Digital services Infrastructure encourages the reuse and analysis of this data to create new products and services, and makes it easier for public services and businesses to access and reuse the data through the European Data Portal1, which acts as a one-stop shop to provide harmonised access to data sets created and managed by public bodies in the Member States.

All actions funded further to the 2015 and 2016 calls for proposals contribute to the availability of harmonised content at the EU level and to its cross- border and cross domain re-use. Some actions focus on harmonisation of data in specific areas like waste compliance management, biodiversity, air quality data, etc. Others promote the use of open data through the co-creation of demonstrators involving citizens and public and private organisations. As a result of the 2017 call, actions delivering services that demonstrate the need and the value of combining public data and High-Performance Computing (HPC) are also being financed.
