Development of methodologies and tools for new and evolving DSO roles for efficient DRES integration in distribution networks (evolvDSO)

Start date: Sep 1, 2013, End date: Dec 31, 2016,

With the growing relevance of distributed renewable energy sources (DRES) in the generation mix and the increasingly pro-active demand for electricity, power systems and their mode of operation need to evolve. evolvDSO will define future roles of distribution system operators (DSOs) on the basis of scenarios which will be driven by different DRES penetration levels, various degrees of technologica ...

DEVelopment Of innovative Tools for understanding marine biodiversity and assessing good Environmental Status (DEVOTES)

Start date: Nov 1, 2012, End date: Oct 31, 2016,

The objectives are to:(i) improve our understanding of human activities impacts (cumulative, synergistic, antagonistic) and variations due to climate change on marine biodiversity, using long-term series (pelagic and benthic). This objective will identify the barriers and bottlenecks (socio-economic and legislative) that prevent the GES being achieved(ii) test the indicators proposed by the EC, an ...

HIGH EFFICIENCY REAR CONTACT SOLAR CELLS AND ULTRA POWERFUL MODULES (HERCULES)

Start date: Nov 1, 2013, End date: Oct 31, 2016,

"The European photovoltaics PV market still represents the predominant share of worldwide installations and electricity generated from PV is becoming increasingly competitive, with an average levelized cost of energy (LCOE) estimated to be between 0.10–0.16 €/kWh in 2011 . This constant reduction of LCOE means that the European industry can only regain its competitiveness with (i) a concomitant re ...

Osteo-inductive coating of orthopedic and dental implants (OSCODI)

Start date: Jul 1, 2013, End date: Dec 31, 2014,

"In the field of orthopedics, the contact with an implant and the new bone forming is very important to ensure a proper osteo-integration of the implant. One of the challenges is to boost bone regeneration, to limit the number of surgeries and to decrease the hospitalization time in order to reduce the costs. The nature of the implantable materials used in clinical practice is very diverse as meta ...

Integrated Flooding Control and Standard for Stability and Crises Management (FLOODSTAND)

Start date: Mar 1, 2009, End date: Feb 29, 2012,

"The size of new passenger ships is continuously increasing. Bigger size offers bigger opportunities and economics of scale, but when a bigger ship accommodates more passengers there may be a higher risk, if evacuation is needed. Thus, new approaches have to be used and further developed in order to have the flooding under control if the watertight integrity of the ship is lost. In the worst case ...
