1 WP4: Development of Joint activities Project Management Jülich, Dr. Stephan Schreiber

2 Overview Executive Summary Objectives Work done/in progress Identification of joint activities Definition of possible schemes for joint activities Definition of possible barriers for joint activities Main Challenges & Opportunities Next steps

3 Summary WP4: Development of joint activities Based on the results of WP2, the objectives of WP4 are: to identify joint activities to define possible schemes and barriers for the joint activities to prepare an action plan for the implementation of joint activities in WP6 Deliverables: D4.1 Report on possible schemes and barriers for the joint activities, (RE) M28 30 D4.2 Report on common interests, (RE) M30 32 D4.3 Action plan for joint activities, (RE) M36 38

4 Summary WP4: Development of joint activities Task 4.1 Identification of joint activities Based on the results from WP 2, 3 and 5, topics of common interest will be identified for the execution of joint activities. The relevant topics will be identified within existing national research programmes, by statements of policy makers, researchers and stakeholders in the geothermal energy area. Task 4.2 Definition of possible schemes and barriers for the joint activities Due to the different structures and topics of the national research programmes, common objectives and interests will be defined between the ERA-NET partners. Workshops will be held to collect additional information about priorities, interests and gaps in research by workshop participants. Barriers for transnational cooperation will be identified and solutions will be developed and implemented. A common funding procedure will be developed and agreed between the participants in case of a joint call.

5 Summary WP4: Development of joint activities Task 4.3 Preparing an action plan the for implementation of joint activities A working group will prepare an action plan to establish procedures for joint activities. National programme owners and their funding agencies will establish the necessary commitment at national levels. They will be supported by the High Level Policy and Implementation Committee.

6 Summary WP4: Development of joint activities Work done: Desk research on existing Joint activities (Task 4.2) First analysis of the WP2 results (Task 4.1) Cooperation with WP2 (Task 4.1 & 4.2): Bilateral Meeting with WP Bilateral Meeting with WP Bilateral Meeting with WP Brainstorming Session Gstaad (Task 4.2) Analysis of the results from Gstaad (Task 4.2)

13 Definition of possible schemes for JA Results from Gstaad Workshop March 2014:

14 Definition of possible schemes for JA Results from Gstaad Workshop March 2014: NWW New Ways of Working (European Funding Agencies) Joint European annual review of national geothermal RD&D projects RD&D review day (Event) Formal evaluation of national RD&D project proposals and/or processes (Funding Agencies) Mobility Expert exchange scheme Geo-INFEX-Groups: Knowledge exchange groups on different levels and topics (e.g. technical, incentives, communication)

15 Definition of possible schemes for JA Results from Gstaad Workshop March 2014: Implementation of EGIP European Geothermal Information Platform Industrial Initiatives to merge public & private investment Test sites/laboratory -> ESFRI Topical fields: Regulatory issues Risk mitigation Operational Issues Sustainability of geothermal energy production Results from WP2/WP4 WS on RD&D needs

16 Definition of possible barriers for JA National funding rules/laws National funding ways e.g. direct funding, institutional, project based Distribution/Handling of funding e.g. by ministry, by funding agency, other administration National status on the way to 2020/2050 goals Politics Is it possible to communicate the necessity of supporting joint actions? Funding budget

17 Main Challenges & Opportunities Difficulties due to: Rules Money Rules but: knowledge exchange possible Money? Money

18 Main Challenges & Opportunities Possible actions: NWW New Ways of Working -> European Funding Agencies possible first steps: Information/knowledge exchange on different funding systems in a working group. (National and regional FA, Private Foundations, Industrial Initiatives) Mobility possible first steps: Knowledge exchange on different topics (based on results of WP2) -> in the beginning: bi-/trinational level Implementation of EGIP European Geothermal Information Platform discussing/planning the forthcoming actions regarding the EGIP -> WP7

19 Next steps 1. Information collection of bi-/trinational JA WP4 Questionaire (September) 2. Proposal for the development of a small budget pilot JA WP2/4 «Knowledge exchange operational issues Share international best practices for operation of geothermal wells» NL-D due to: Political Declaration on Energy Cooperation, , H. Kamp & S. Gabriel
