Demonstration of sustainable tidal energy farms
Call text (as on F&T portal)
View on F&T portalExpected Outcome:
Project results are expected to contribute to all of the following expected outcomes:
- De-risking tidal energy technology development and increased bankability/insurability of tidal energy.
- Increased availability and improved market confidence in the technology.
- Increased knowledge on positive and negative impacts of ocean energy on its environment and in the case of negative impacts to protected habitats and species proposals for necessary mitigation measures.
- Publicly available data collected from the demonstration/pilot structure including support structure.
Scope:
Demonstration of sustainable tidal energy pilot farms (minimum 4 MW installed capacity and at least 4 devices) in full operational conditions for long periods of time is essential to advance this sector. It is the way to bridge the gap from technology development to market development while reducing costs, reducing risks and attracting investors for future commercial projects. The farm is expected to be composed of several devices of the same series.
The tidal energy farms have to be connected to the electricity grid. To focus on the technologies with the greatest chances of success, the single tidal device to be used in the array deployment is expected to be satisfactorily demonstrated at full scale before, with limited changes to incorporate the learnings. Any change on the tidal device may be incremental but should not involve fundamental changes to the device design or composition.’ The innovation component should mainly lie on the pilot farm systems and supporting industrial manufacturing activities that enable a cost-effective and high-performance pilot farm. The project is expected to deploy a tidal energy farm with a minimum capacity of 4 MW and operate the farm at least 2 years in the lifetime of the project. After the project it is expected that the farm will continue to be operated for at least 8 years.
The project should develop and execute an effective operation and maintenance programme.
Proposals are expected to address also all the following for both the supporting infrastructure for the farm and for the individual devices themselves:
- Industrial design and manufacturing processes, circularity of (critical) raw materials, sustainability, scalability, installation methods, transport, operation & maintenance, supply chains and the related digital infrastructures.
- Projects are requested to demonstrate the technologies at sea while respecting existing environmental regulatory framework. Necessary mitigation measures should be integrated to protect habitats and species. Present an environmental monitoring plan to be implemented during the demonstration action. Environmental monitoring data should be open source and be shared with EMODNET and the IEA OES environmental task.
The project has to include a clear go/no go moment ahead of entering the deployment phase. Before this go/no-go moment, the project has to deliver the detailed engineering plans, a techno-economic assessment, including key performance indicators based on international recognized metrics, a complete implementation plan and all needed permits for the deployment of the project, and if needed a plan to achieve certification by an independent certification body before the end of the action. The project proposal is expected to present a clear and convincing pathway to obtain necessary permits for the demonstration actions and allow for appropriate timelines to achieve these. The project is expected also to demonstrate how it will get a financial close for the whole action. For this the use of other EU/national/regional support mechanisms can be considered. Independent experts will assess all deliverables and will advise for the go/no-go decision.
The exploitation plans should include preliminary plans for scalability, commercialisation, and deployment (feasibility study, business plan, financial model) indicating the possible funding sources to be potentially used (in particular the Innovation Fund).
Data from the pilot structures should be collected to understand the performance and behaviour of the structure and the surrounding environmental condition, to optimise the concept and understand the environmental impact of tidal energy harvesting.
The selected projects are expected to contribute to the BRIDGE initiative[1], actively participate to its activities and allocate up to 2% of their budgets to that end. Additional contributions to the ‘Alliance for Internet of Things Innovation’ (AIOTI) and other relevant activities (e.g. clusters of digital projects and coordinating actions) might be considered, when relevant.
null
Activities are expected to achieve TRL 8 by the end of the project – see General Annex B.
