Hamburg, September 28 Aidan Cronin, Chair ETIPWind
ETIPWind from SGRE side • 50 trips over 104 days and some 100000euro investment + Pay • Realisation that setting the EU collective technical agenda going forward is key to leadership and survival of industy and the academic institiutions needed to support it. • Only agenda was to get the organization to work and support all members as best we could. • R&I support now a written goal of WE Board • Cross national research has proved difficult but cross border research is alive and well and thriving. ETIPWind needs to make the collective forum with EERA and EAWE stronger - to deliver credible, high impact technology roadmaps to policy makers. We have a huge solution we need to translate it into tangible answers. The challenge is huge and you are part of the insurance that can give the world a future.
CTO group input to Patrick Child Driving market development with targeted R&I
Some of the main inputs to Patrick Child • Merit based R&I funding for all TRL ´ s onshore and offshore. • System integration . • sector coupling is key, outdated transport system needs new electrical fleet and seasonal storage is a must going forward. • Competitive environment with China that has a huge funding budget for research that can only be matched at EU-wide level. • Floating will be vital to unlock wind’s true carbon free energy potential. • Need to nurture and train the needed engineers, scientists and specialists going forward. • Need to suppport development of new technologies and new materials. • Increased importance of recycling components – blades are a specific problem. • New technologies for O&M and harmonise the amalgamation of national rules. • Offshore balance of plant . • Key competitive area – more international alignment and cost reduction.
European Commission reply On R&I funding • Horizon Europe will be the biggest R&I funding programme ever, especially with Brexit. • ETS Innovation Fund will support close to market innovation On the sector’s R&I priorities • Agreement on transversal challenges (electrification, digitalisation) • Acknowledged that offshore wind is an R&I success, but that onshore needs support too to retain industrial base (vs China) On sector coupling • Asked explicitly for solutions to help transport and heavy industry decarbonise – We promised to answer.

Status • EU knows wind exists again and is important. • Funding increased – need suitable projects • Setting the agenda with your work for WE • Digitalization • Sector coupling • Developing bonds to ECPE, Eschel, EMIRI • Vital that ETIPWind continues to support R&I with UK going forward – This mentioned to EU whenever possible.
