  10. Earned value – December 2016

  11. Civil construction groundbreaking September 2014

  12. August 2015

  13. Site Offices Central Utilities Building (CUB) LINAC Instruments Target October 2016

  14. December 2016 August

  15. Instruments • Have defined scope for 15 instruments and developed a realistic schedule ensuring early science success in line with available in-kind resources and partner capabilities • Council agreed in December 2016 to proceed with 13 more instruments (two already approved) • Also defined which instruments are expected to be operational first

  16. Operations costs Comparison of 2013 and 2016 Operations Cost Estimates • Operations funding is needed from 2019 • Start by focusing on “steady-state” (2030’s) with 200 days running, 5MW and 22 instruments • Bottom-up estimate 155M€ • Validated by external review • Extensive benchmarking against peer facilities • 17-member international review panel chaired by Thom Mason • Conclusion: sound estimate, maybe 10% low • Next Step: planning and costing initial operations activities 2019-2024 • Commissioning, first science, completion of instruments and accelerator scope • 2017 Annual Review Initial Operations Budget in M(€)

  17. Journey to deliver the world’s leading facility for research using neutrons 2025 ESS Construction Phase Complete 2014 Construction Starts on Green Field Site 2023 ESS Starts User Program 2009 Decision to Site ESS in Lund 2020 Machine Ready for 1st Beam on Target 2012 ESS Design Update Phase Complete 2003 European Design of ESS Completed

  18. Data Management and Software CentreCOBIS, Copenhagen University North Campus Provide world leading scientific software and scientific computing supportfor neutron scattering at ESS Scientific Software ESS experiment control system, Data acquisition, Data correction software, visualization, and software to model and analyze experimental data sets. Data center operations Store and catalogue ESS datasets, provide ESS users remote access to their data, computing for live data correction, and analysis software during and after experiments. User support Support ESS users with data treatment and analysis. 22* DMSC Staff now  60 (*20 FTEs and 2 part time) 21

  19. Organisers Conference Schedule

  20. ESS continues to make rapid progress Conventional construction moving fast First in-kind deliveries on site Agreement on Financing with EIB, NIB, SEK ✅ Selection of Initial Instruments ✅ Target price agreed for remaining civil construction ✅ Starting installation of first cryo and electrical systems Will begin to move ESS staff out to the site in 2017

  21. Our current focus • Maintaining the schedule and the cost ceiling • Integrated Project Schedule and Value Engineering • In-kind agreements, member commitments • Understanding the transition to initial operations - starting January 2019 (2 years!)

  22. ESS campus offices, labs, and workshops

  23. Science Village

  24. My vision for ESS big science • To be the best neutron scattering facility in the world • Built safely, on time and on budget • Research outputs that are best-in-class both in terms of scientific quality and in terms of socioeconomic impact • Supports and develops its user community, fosters a scientific culture of excellence and acts as an international scientific hub • Operates safely, efficiently and economically, and responds to the needs of its stakeholders, its host states and member states • Develops innovative ways of working, new technologies, and upgrades needed to remain at the cutting edge • To anchor an innovation ecosystem • Working with Max IV, University, city, region

  25. Thank you!
