44 THIRD ROUND OF PROGRAMME-ORIENTED FUNDING, 2015–2019 In spring 2014 a total of 17 programmes and 13 research facilities were evaluated in the research fields Energy, Key Technologies and the reorganised area of Matter. For these fields, the third period of programme-oriented funding (POF) will begin in 2015. The following section presents programme financing for 2015 as recommended by the Helmholtz Senate on the basis of its reviews. COSTS AND STAFF BY CENTRE The Helmholtz Association’s annual budget consists of core financing and third-party funding. A total of 90 per cent of core financing is provided by the federal government and 10 per cent comes from the federal states in which the member centres are located. The centres raise around 30 per cent of the total budget themselves in the form of third-party funding. Due to the Helmholtz Association’s strategic focus on six research fields, the total budget is broken down for the fiscal year 2013 according to the research fields and the centres. This overview is supplemented by information on the number of staff members expressed in person-years.

Costs and staff by centre, 2013 Energy The evaluation of the seven programmes in this research field took place between January and March 2014. The reviewers welcomed the realignment of the field, which has been augmented with two additional programmes and given a stronger focus on topics related to the clean energy transition. The reviewers recommended further expanding the cross- programme strategy for a sustainable energy system. Financing recommendations for the entire funding period, expressed on a cost basis, total 2,128 million euros.
