  1. The Energy Technology Partnership Dr Simon Puttock Executive Director, ETP KT Scotland Conference, 2010

  2. Energy Research Pooling and KE • Scotland: Energy Resources and Industry • Energy Technology Partnership (ETP) • Knowledge Exchange - examples • Summary

  3. Scotland: Energy Resources and Industry • Large energy resource, conventional and renewable; • Priority industry with ca. 2500 companies (oil/gas, >2000; power generation & utilities, 200-250; renewables, 150-200); • Gross Value Added to the Scottish economy is some £18 billion, one of the highest of all industry sectors; • More that 100,000 energy jobs with potential for 60,000 additional ‘green jobs’; • Strong KE track record but potential for much more.

  4. The Energy Technology Partnership is..... An alliance of Scottish Universities, engaged in world class energy related Research, Development and Demonstration (RD&D) 250 academics + 600 researchers = Scale + Substance Largest, most broad based power and energy research partnership in Europe

  5. Technology Focus Areas • Wind energy • Marine energy • Bio-energy • Solar energy • Energy materials • Power systems and networks • Built environment / DSM • Energy conversion and storage • Oil and gas • Carbon capture and storage

  6. Strategic Objectives - strong focus on knowledge exchange • Capacity Building • Relationship Building • Internationalisation • Economic Impact "Deepening and broadening existing relationships and partnerships to promote increased collaboration." "Promoting the expertise and capabilities within the ETP, to develop new strategic relationships with industry, academia and others." "Projecting the scale and expertise of the ETP on the international stage in order to promote new outreach and knowledge exchange opportunities." "Connecting the work of the ETP with Scottish Policy and economic development opportunities for Scotland."

  7. Knowledge Exchange R&D Outcomes Industry Translation Proof of Concept Industry Doctorates Specialist Centres Energy Laboratory Industry Projects Spin-Outs Knowledge Exchange – Performance and Measurement

  8. Proof of Concept Programme - an indicator of market-focussed R&D Oil and Gas 13 Renewables 7 Power Systems 6 Other 2

  9. Industry Doctorate Programme • £4m programme. 50 SPIRIT-funded students, with a • further 50 in phase 2 to deliver >100 Energy Industry • Doctorates over 5 years. First intake October 2010; • Industry are co-investors, support project specification and engage directly with the research and other planned KE activities (workshops, summer schools etc.); • Doctorates will quickly contribute to industry, increase research capacity of ETP and significantly enhance energy sector KE and innovation.

  10. Specialist Centres - examples • Rolls-Royce University Technology Centre • Scottish Power Advanced Research Centre • Scottish and Southern Energy Research Centre • Scottish Centre for Carbon Storage • Centre for Gas Hydrate Research • Scottish Offshore Materials Centre • Centre for the Built Environment • Bio-fuel Research Centre • Converteam Advanced Technology Centre

  11. Scottish Energy Laboratory Potential Users ? AIn Support Services • Assets (>£200m invested) • Energy related; • Third party access; • National/international significance. Asset Asset Asset Hub R&D Funding Asset Asset • Hub • Business Development:- • Facilitating access; • Knowledge exchange; • Promotion/marketing; • Partnering/collaboration; • Strategic development. Asset Asset Marketing Innovation Asset Knowledge Exchange

  12. Wave Site – Billia Croo Scottish Energy Laboratory Research, Development, Demonstration and Deployment Support services: Coordination, R&D input, Funding, Innovation etc. + Technology Alliances: (1) Wind Energy, (2) Marine Energy, (3) CCS

  13. ETI Programme Associates ETI Project Partners Public Sector Industry Projects – example 1 …. a £1.1bn initiative • Design and evaluation of next generation offshore wind turbine systems: • Helm Wind • NOVA • Monitoring • Performance analysis and environmental monitoring of marine devices: • ReDAPT • PeraWatt ETP is a Project Partner in 5 Programmes

  14. Industry Projects – example 2 • ETP University and Industry participation is significant • Principal Investigator/Leadership: • Future Network Technologies • Flexible Networks • Marine Energy Research (I and II) • Highly Distributed Power Systems (I and II) • Energy Storage • Wind Energy Technologies • Delivery of Sustainable Hydrogen • Programme Participant: • Asset Management & Performance of Energy Systems • Sustainable Hydrogen Energy • Biomass and Bio-energy • Biological Fuel Cells • Excitonic Solar Cells • Fuel Cells • (Photovoltaic Materials for the 21st Century) • (Conventional Power Plant Lifetime Extension)

  15. Spin-outs - examples • MTEM, 2003 PoC, bought in 2007 for $275m; electromagnetic imaging • “The researchers are developing a new geophysical technology (patent pending) which will dramatically reduce the cost of finding oil.” - from PoC application • HYDRAFACT, 2006 spin-out; oil & gas flow assurance • Smarter Grid solutions, 2008 spin-out; active network management. • NGenTec, PoC, 2009 spin out; generator technology • Epistemy, 2009 spin-out; oil and gas reservoir software

  16. Performance and Measurement ETP Member Universities Knowledge Exchange Performance • Energy network • KE Plan • X-cutting opportunities Energy Focus • Consultancy • CPD • KTP • PoC • SEEKIT • Licences • Patents • Spin-outs Knowledge Exchange (KTG) Measures An opportunity and a challenge

  17. Knowledge Exchange R&D Outcomes Industry Translation Proof of Concept Industry Doctorates Specialist Centres Energy Laboratory Industry Projects Spin-Outs Knowledge Exchange – Performance and Measurement

  18. Scotland has vast energy resources with a strong conventional and renewable energy industry sector; ETP has world class expertise in energy R&D across a range of energy sectors; ETP has a strong track record in knowledge exchange and is seeking new opportunities for mutual research, innovation and business benefit.
