Modular Development Plan of the Pan-European Transmission System 2050 (e-HIGHWAY2050)

Start date: Sep 1, 2012, End date: Dec 31, 2015,

Eight Transmission System Operators (BE, CZ, FR, DE, IT, PT, CH, PL) and ENTSO-E, together with 4 associations of technology manufacturers, and 16 RTD performers propose a 3-year R&D project to develop and to apply a methodology for the long-term development of the Pan-European transmission network. The project aims at delivering a top-down methodology to support the planning from 2020 to 2050. F ...

Towards Neutral-atom Space Optical Clocks: Development of high-performance transportable and breadboard optical clocks and advanced subsystems (SOC2)

Start date: Mar 1, 2011, End date: Oct 31, 2015,

"A range of new applications will be enabled by ultra-precise optical clocks, some of which by using them in space, near or far distant from Earth. They cover the fields of fundamental physics (tests of General Relativity), time and frequency metrology (comparison of distant terrestrial clocks, operation of a master clock in space), geophysics (mapping of the gravitational potential of the Earth), ...

Assessment of Climatic change and impacts on the Quantity and quality of Water (ACQWA)

Start date: Oct 1, 2008, End date: Mar 31, 2014,

As the evidence for human induced climate change becomes clearer, so too does the realization that its effects will have impacts on natural environment and socio-economic systems. Some regions are more vulnerable than others, both to physical changes and to the consequences for ways of life. The proposal will assess the impacts of a changing climate on the quantity and quality of water in mountain ...

EcoWeb a dynamic e-dissemination platform for EU eco-innovation research results (EcoWeb)

Start date: Sep 1, 2011, End date: Aug 31, 2013,

Europe has a leading position in eco-innovation patents and emerging technologies. Although the EU achieves a remarkably high annual growth rate of 16% in eco-innovation, transfer to SMEs is rather low. Technology transfer to SMEs would be important to reduce EU’s industrial pollution. According to OECD and EC reports, awareness for RTD results is low. There is a need to increase technology transf ...

Portable Real Time Detection of Airborne Asbestos Fibres for Tradespersons (ALERT)

Start date: Aug 2, 2010, End date: Aug 1, 2013,

"Asbestos-related diseases are the leading cause of occupational death in Europe. 500,000 European workers, mostly within the construction, demolition and remediation industries, are expected to die by 2030. Despite a ban on asbestos use, our members’ workers are continually exposed to this potent, invisible carcinogen from legacy products such as insulation, water tanks, ceiling panels, floor til ...

Further Development and Implementation of an EU-level Forest Monitoring System (FutMon)

Start date: Jan 1, 2009, End date: Jun 30, 2011,

Background Forests cover about 30% of Europe, providing high value concerning: biodiversity; carbon sequestration; soil and water protection; and the economic contribution of goods and services. However, climate change, air pollution and changes in land use are threatening the health, stability and sustainability of forests and their values. On top of th ...
