Fusion … in line with the 2020 Innovation Union European fusion programme must therefore promote • Innovation (technologies : development and transfers) • European industry competitiveness facing a world wide competition (chiefly from Asian industry) Opportunity for a better involvement of European industries in coherence with • short terms fusion objectives • long term vision … giving credibility to the goal of a future » industrial fusion power plant » FIIF – Involvement of industry – Ph. Garderet, Garching, april 14th, 2011
A Commission initiative : the FIIF Fusion Industry Innovation Forum • to provide advice to the Commission and the CCE-FU • chair of the FIIF management Board report to CCE-FU • not to discuss the procurements for ITER • large and open dissemination of the forum activities • links with national industrial networks FIIF – Involvement of industry – Ph. Garderet, Garching, april 14th, 2011
Enhancing technological links between the fusion community and industry • Fusion objectives must continue to act as « technology inciters » through specific high performance challenges (materials, tritium …) • Industry is able to contribute as « technology provider » through high tech products and services in correlation to their larger scope of shorter-terms applications • Industry has the capability to integrate the technologies and to transform technology and innovations • in process, tools, long term collective competences • in products • in services …customers oriented and facing competition FIIF – Involvement of industry – Ph. Garderet, Garching, april 14th, 2011
Industry involvement needed … towards a fusion powerplant Really preparing a way to an « industrial plant » means : • Introducing more industrial rules quite soon in the design phase • Codes and standards • Nuclear industry constraints including safety options, licensing … • Global engineering vision (a fusion plant is much more than a Tokamak) • Design choices must take into account the industrial constraints for the operating phase • More precise ideas about industrial economic figures will progressively be necessary FIIF – Involvement of industry – Ph. Garderet, Garching, april 14th, 2011
FIIF plan of activities Provide industrial opinion, advices and proposals • Challenge the Technology road map for the power plan and Identify Critical technologies from the industrial point of view • Define and advice on a suitable technology transfer programme • Review skills development initiative according to industrial previsional specific needs FIIF – Involvement of industry – Ph.
