Abstract
Finnish experts chosen by the MTI Energy Department evaluated in March/April 1991 the domestic steel and metal programme SOLA and two pulp and paper industry programmes called RAINA and KUITU respectively. The evaluations were made by interviewing in writing as well as orally many of the persons comprised by the programmes and, in particular, many of the foreseeable industrial users of the potential results. In each case the evaluation bore on the objectives, results, research resources and further research requirements of the programme, and especially on the capitalization of its results. SULA: In terms of business operation and economy, the individual projects covered by this programme are both strategically and operatively relevant and have hitherto led to good results. Their indirect benefits for training and research in the fields are of incontestable value. Some projects of the programme have given rise to interesting spin-off ideas regarding the business operation potential involved. From the energy policy point of view the short-term benefits from the projects amount to some dozens of millions of marks a year and will pay back the invested capital very quickly. About 50 % of the short-term benefits have already been capitalized. RAINA and KUITU: The general energy
