EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
CC France’s thematic field is a wide, multipolar thematic. The strategy of KIC InnoEnergy France is to focus on three promising and impacting topics:
1. “Energy Storage for the integration of renewables” addresses the difficult challenge of integrating intermittent renewable energy sources into a centralized, programmable energy production mix. Among the wide portfolio of energy storage technologies, technologies that are best suited to the integration of renewables have been identified:
Priorities for Energy Storage for Renewables integration
Batteries (Li-ion, redox flow batteries…) Cross-Cutting Battery topics: BMS, safety,
recycling Power to Gas Hydrogen Storage Pumped Hydro Supercapacitors Flywheels Compressed Air
2. Energy Efficiency is a cross-cutting challenge that applies to all sectors of the economy and impacts the entire energy landscape, from the management of energy resources to the daily life of citizens. CC France is focused on the “Energy Efficiency in the Industry” segment. Priorities have been identified as:
Priorities for Energy Efficiency in the Industry
Energy management sensors and solutions for the industry
Heat recovery and heat valorization in industrial processes
Heat pumps and heat exchangers Electric motors, pumps and compressors HVAC systems
3. CC France is responsible for the nuclear roadmap of KIC InnoEnergy. Taking into account the KIC objective of short to medium term product commercialization and the post-Fukushima priorities for the nuclear industry, the choice was made to focus on Nuclear Instrumentation.
Priorities for Nuclear
Innovative Instrumentation and Measurement
Innovative Control / Command systems

1. Energy Storage for the integration of renewable energy production
A. Market challenges and business drivers
Energy Storage: Strong momentum in Europe and worldwide
Europe has set itself ambitious goals in terms of penetration of renewable energies in the production mix, reduction of CO2 emissions, and increase of energy efficiency. Energy storage is identified in the SET Plan as a key technology priority in order to bring more flexibility and security to the European Energy System1. Key economic industrial sectors (energy, transportation, buildings…) are involved in innovative energy storage solutions, worldwide. All major research organizations have put a lot of efforts on storage technologies. Based on the large technology portfolio, various energy storage business models can be developed, and many are still to be invented.
A widespread study by Fraunhofer Institute and EPRI, carried out in 2010, provided an estimation of the worldwide installed capacity for electric energy storage2. This estimation emphasized the overwhelming importance of pumped hydro energy storage (PHES), representing more than 99% of the total storage capacity. Some recent studies have since reported interesting evaluations of electricity storage value and potential market forecasts for other energy storage technologies3,4,5. All attempts at storage valuation require making assumptions on storage regulation, and most studies conclude that electricity storage is not viable under current regulatory frameworks. It remains however that energy storage will be a key pillar in the transition of the energy system towards a low-carbon mix, and Europe should keep a leading position in energy storage6.
Taking this into account, the EU recently started a number of initiatives in order to maintain its industrial excellence in large-scale storage and to recover a leadership in other small-scale storage technologies:
The EERA Joint Programme on Energy Storage was launched at the SET Plan Conference in Warsaw on Nov. 28th, 2011, with the goal to coordinate “research and development on next generation energy storage technologies […] to support the SET plan objectives and priorities and establish technological leadership in energy storage.
In September 2011, the European Association for Storage of Energy (EASE) was created with the objective to support “the deployment of energy storage as an indispensable instrument in order to improve the flexibility of and to deliver services to the energy system with respect to EU energy and climate policy”7.
EASE and EERA issued a joint roadmap8 in 2013
Energy storage roadmaps and strategic areas are also integrated in the SET-Plan at different levels, of which:

The SET-Plan Materials Roadmap Enabling Low Carbon Energy Technologies9 (as described in the first part of this document), which includes a part on materials for energy storage,
The EERA Joint Programme on Energy Storage The European Fuel Cells and Hydrogen Joint Technology Initiative, aiming to accelerate R&D of
hydrogen-based technologies in a cost effective way, The EERA Joint Programme on Smart Grids, whose sub-programme SP4 is focused on electrical
energy storage10, The EERA Joint Programme on Smart Cities which considers further integration of storage in
support to sustainable, low-carbon cities concepts.
Energy storage applications and the convergence Nuclear - Renewables
The wide potential of applications of energy storage technologies has been explored in depth16,11,12,13,14.As described in Figure 1, energy storage applications can be classified in four main categories:

In the framework of the roadmaps for the KIC InnoEnergy France’s thematic field (“Convergence Nuclear/Renewables”), the focus in the following will be on category N°2, i.e. energy storage for RES integration. The storage topic is also shared with the KIC InnoEnergy offices in Sweden (Smart Grids and Electric Storage), and in Benelux (Smart Cities and Smart Buildings).

B. Technologies to address those challenges
The methodology adopted for the energy storage roadmaps was in six steps:
1. Draw a complete picture of energy storage applications (see previous paragraph)
2. Understand their requirements
3. Draw a complete picture of storage technologies
4. Understand their features (performances & cost)
5. Determine which technology is best suited for which application
6. Determine technologies to be inserted in the roadmaps
Understanding the requirements of energy applications also allows classifying the applications into two large types:
Power related applications: need high power output for short periods of time (typically, seconds to less than an hour)
Energy related applications: need large amount of stored energy, for discharge durations of up to several hours.
Step 1: Complete picture of energy storage applications
The complete picture of energy storage applications is sketched in Figure 1. It relies on a compilation of several widely referenced reports (in particular by EPRI, Sandia Labs, IEA, EASE, ENEA Consulting, SLB Consulting).
Step 2: Understanding the requirements of energy storage applications
The requirements of all energy storage applications, based on a compilation of the above mentioned widely referenced reports, are listed in Table 1.
The requirements for the application “Renewable Integration” are highlighted in orange color.

Step 5: Which technology for the “RES integration” application?
The determination of which technology is best suited for the “RES Integration” application is performed by crossing the technical requirements of “RES integration” (Step 2) and the technology features (Step 4). Results are summarized in Table 4. For each technology, the compliance with the application requirement is appreciated along a scale from „very adequate” (++) to „inadequate” (--).
From this analysis, the following conclusions can be drawn:
1. Technologies such as Pumped hydro, CAES, batteries, hydrogen storage, and Power to Gas are very well adapted to energy applications like time shifting, capacity firming, and avoidance of curtailment:
2. Flywheels, SMEs and Super Capacitors are very well adapted to the power applications like the limitation of upstream perturbations.
3. Batteries technologies such as Li-ion and Lead Acid are adapted to both power and energy applications.
4. Thermal storage is adapted to time shifting for example in the case of solar CSP

iInnoEnergy – Thematic Field “Sustainable Nuclear and Renewable Energy Convergence” - Strategy and Roadmap v1
Steps 1 to 6 allow assessing the technical compliance of technologies versus application’s requirement specifications. In accordance with the other KIC InnoEnergy key impact assessment factors, two other parameters are to be taken into account: technology maturity and costs.
Technology maturity: as shown in Figure 2, most of the technologies selected in Step 5 are characterized by a TRL greater than 5. Only SMEs have low maturity and will be left aside the roadmap. Some technologies are even fully commercial (TRL 8-9). The selected technologies are therefore compliant with the KIC InnoEnergy target of ensuring the shortest time to market.
Investment cost: Pumped Hydro and CAES are known for high capital investment, but low cost of output energy. Other technologies, such as Flywheels and Supercapacitors, are today rather low performing in terms of power cost (€/kW). However, these two technologies are very well designed for voltage and frequency regulation and small scale renewable integration. Future systems based on these technologies may become less costly when products become more standardized and engineering costs have been removed7. Eventual KIC InnoEnergy projects involving these technologies should therefore target dramatic cost reduction.
Technologies to be included in the roadmaps “Energy Storage for RES integration”
Relying on the six steps methodology applied above, the selected set of technologies to be included in the roadmap “Energy Storage for RES integration” is the following:
Application in RES integration Technology
Capacity firmingCurtailment minimization(energy applications)

Batteries
Lithium Batteries are a fast developing technology, driven by automotive applications. Redox Flow batteries show promising performances. Targets now are to decrease costs, increase energy density and safety.
Cross-cutting topics on batteries
Whatever the chemistry involved, safety is a major issue for batteries, as well as recycling. Battery management systems have a strong impact on the battery lifetime.
Power To Gas - Hydrogen production
This technology is particularly well adapted to a flexible management of excess decarbonized electricity from either wind or solar. Easy storage in gas grids.
Pumped Hydro
Mature technology; still high potential in northern Europe (Norway), and oustside Europe.
Compressed Air
In CAES systems the energy is stored mechanically, usually in underground caverns, by compressing air from the atmosphere. Future dvpts deal with adiabatic CAES
Hydrogen Storage
Hydrogen Storage is driven by both stationnary and mobile applications. Interest for renewables integration lies in stationnary storage, with hydrides as the most promising.
Flywheels
Relies on storage of rotating kinetic energy. High cyclability, high energy effi ciency and fast response time: well adapted to power applications, i.e. voltage and frequency regulation.
Supercapacitors
Store electricity in the form of an electrostatic field between two electrodes. Well adapted to voltage & frequency regulation, VAR support and harmonic correction.
Thermal Storage
Within the scope of renewables integration, thermal storage has a direct application in Concentrated Solar Power. R&D efforts are on new materials and innovative systems for CSP.

Energy Storage is a key element for the energy transition worldwide and a major potential source of jobs in the European industry.
The wide portfolio of technologies available allows
Lithium batteries are also driven by the Electric Vehicle, therefore high cost reduction potential exists.
Power to Gas is a very promising route for storage by conversion of excess electricity from renewables, relying on gas grids for storage and opening the way for new business models.
Pumped hydro still has potential in Europe but more importantly, represents a huge market for European companies particularly in Asia and South America.
Hydrogen storage is gaining more and more interest in the industry and is also linked to the fuel cells market.
Technologies suitable to power applications (flywheels, supercap) will allow a faster penetration of renewables by addressing power quality issues of non-programmable energy sources.
Thermal storage is an important factor for thepenetration of Solar CSP into the energy mix and therefore also contributes to lower GHG emission.

Comments and conclusions:
The scores for the various parameters are quite scattered, indicating that each technology has its specificity. This reflects the versatility of the energy storage technologies portfolio. A consequence of this is the absence of “golden technology” that would comply with all requirements.
Priority topics with the widest areas are: Batteries (Li-ion, redox flow batteries…) Cross-Cutting Battery topics: BMS, safety, recycling Power to Gas Hydrogen Storage Pumped Hydro Supercapacitors Flywheels Compressed Air
Industry value chain necessary
The value chain for batteries, power to gas, and hydrogen storage, are taken into account in the management of the current energy storage innovation projects mentioned on the roadmaps. Major European companies are onboard regarding these technologies.
Taking into account the results of the KIC InnoEnergy Competence Mapping V2, in the next coming years new partners should jump into new storage projects, in order to reinforce KIC InnoEnergy’s position in storage; possible partners include :
Siemens (PHES, CAES, Flywheels, Supercapacitors, Phase Change Materials for thermal storage) Alstom (PHES, CAES) Bosch, SAFT (batteries) Air Liquide (Hydrogen) Material companies involved in thermal storage (see section 1)

3. Energy Efficiency in the Industry
A. Market challenges and business drivers
Energy Efficiency: a cross-cutting area at the convergence of KIC InnoEnergy’s objectives
“Energy efficiency is the most cost effective way to reduce emissions, improve energy security and competitiveness, make energy consumption more affordable for consumers as well as create employment, including in export industries”
(European Commission, COM (2010) 639 final)
“Energy efficiency is the winning strategy to simultaneously address a variety of policy objectives, including security of supply, climate change, competitiveness, balance of trade, reduced investment need and environmental protection”
(Energy Efficiency: A Recipe for Success, World Energy Council, 2010)
Improving energy efficiency in all sectors of the economy is fundamental and urgent. It has the greatest potential for CO2 savings and the lowest cost (in most cases negative costs).Energy efficiency can deliver results quickly. But our analysis of recent efficiency trends shows that the past ten years’ performance in IEA member countries has declined to about half the rate of improvement in previous decades. A fundamental turn-around is needed.
(« Towards a Sustainable Energy Future », IEA in support of the G8, 2008)
Energy Efficiency (EE) has now become a major pillar of the energy policy in many countries worldwide. The reason for this interest is that EE is not only about energy savings. As well depicted in Figure 5, energy efficiency finally results in increasing competitiveness, ensuring security of supply and reducing environmental impacts of our activities.
Energy Efficiency and the European Union
In the past recent years, as shown in Figure 6, projections of the primary energy consumption in the EU indicated that the EU was not on track to meet its 20% energy saving target by 2020. Most recent projections indicate that we are approaching the target, but projections are very sensitive to the time range considered for their calculation. A gap is still to be filled between the projected consumption for 2020 and the “3x20” target (1474 Mtoe).
To cope with this gap, the EU initiated a number of actions17, among which:
Page 22 of 41
iInnoEnergy – Thematic Field “Sustainable Nuclear and Renewable Energy Convergence” - Strategy and Roadmap v1
The Energy Efficiency Plan, adopted in 2011, The Energy Efficiency Fund (EEF)18, launched in 2011, The new Energy Efficiency Directive, entered into force on 4 December 2012. Most of its
provisions will have to be implemented by the Member States by 5 June 2014.
Figure 5: Energy Efficiency: benefits for the society, the economy and the environment19
Figure 6: EU’s projections20 on primary energy consumption as compared with the 20% European EE target
Page 23 of 41
iInnoEnergy – Thematic Field “Sustainable Nuclear and Renewable Energy Convergence” - Strategy and Roadmap v1
These EU initiatives globally tackle the most consuming sectors of the economy, which are often the most important sources of CO2 emissions as shown in Figure 7. Accordingly, the recently adopted European Directive on Energy Efficiency especially targets four main sectors: buildings, transports, industry, and energy.

The main new measures in the new Energy Efficiency Directive include21:
The obligation on Member States to achieve certain amount of final energy savings over the obligation period (01 January 2014 – 31 December 2020) by using energy efficiency obligations schemes or other targeted policy measures to drive energy efficiency improvements in households, industries and transport sectors.
The obligation for large enterprises to carry out an energy audit at least every four years, with a first energy audit at the latest by 5 December 2015. Incentives for SMEs to undergo energy audits to help them identify the potential for reduced energy consumption.
Efficiency in energy generation: monitoring of efficiency levels of new energy generation capacities, national assessments for co-generation and district heating potential and measures for its uptake to be developed by 31 December 2015, including recovery of waste heat, demand side resources to be encouraged.
Page 24 of 41
iInnoEnergy – Thematic Field “Sustainable Nuclear and Renewable Energy Convergence” - Strategy and Roadmap v1
More globally, Energy Efficiency is a typical cross-cutting domain that also encompasses important applications sectors such as agriculture and the emblematic data centers. The potential scope of applications of Energy Efficiency is therefore very large:
Manufacturing industry Power plants Data centers Buildings Transport Agriculture
The technologies involved in these application sectors are also very diverse. In order to efficiently tackle the energy efficiency roadmaps, focus is necessary.
Energy Efficiency in Buildings is addressed by the thematic field “Intelligent, Energy Efficient Buildings and Cities”.
The roadmaps in the next section will focus on energy efficiency in the industry. The industrial sector accounts for a third of world energy consumption and nearly 40% of CO2 emissions. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), energy efficiency would allow 57% of the global CO2 savings to be achieved by 2030 and represents nearly 40% of the savings available in the industrial sector22.
With this focus on buildings and manufacturing industry, KIC InnoEnergy roadmaps in Energy Efficiency will take into account these two sectors which, in the EU, cover more than half the final energy consumption, as well as at least one third of CO2 emissions.
B. Technologies to address those challenges
As shown in Figure 7, in 2010 the industrial sector consumed a quarter of the final energy in the EU . In 2011 in France, final energy consumption amounted to 155.6 Mtoe, of which 21.1% in industry. At national level, the most consuming industries are chemicals, iron and steel and food processing.
Energy efficiency in the industry addresses two main issues:
the industrial processes themselves, and the transverse operations
Process technologies include all industrial processes in place in high energy-intensive industries such as cement, iron & steel, pulp and paper industries. Manufacturers in these sectors have developed a deep understanding of their processes, firstly driven by costs optimization targets. It is challenging to explore to what extent their specific improvements can be adapted to other industrial areas and to open channels for a transversal flow of knowledge23.
Page 25 of 41
iInnoEnergy – Thematic Field “Sustainable Nuclear and Renewable Energy Convergence” - Strategy and Roadmap v1
Transverse operations in the industry include all equipment commonly used in many industries, such as:
Electric motors, pumps, and compressed air Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) Heat pumps & heat exchangers Lighting
Transverse operations are a major part of energy consumption in the industry. This part was estimated in in France at the amount of 64 TWh with more than 40 TWh in electricity.24
Figure 8 shows the share of each type of transverse operations for various industrial sectors. In a number of sectors (food, automotive…) the share of process technology is effectively very low compared transverse operations. Moreover, even in sectors where processes are highly energy intensive (metals), the weight of transverse operations is never negligible.

*CCTs = Cross-Cutting Technologies
A comprehensive study performed by Fraunhofer ISI (2012) has evaluated the total energy saving potentials in the EU27 in the industry sector (see figure next slide): final energy consumption could be reduced by 26% in 2030 and 52% in 2050, with a major contribution coming from CCTs.
Based on these results, the following topics are identified for the roadmap “Energy Efficiency in the Industry”: Electric motors, pumps and compressed air; energy management sensors and solutions, heat pumps and heat exchangers, HVAC; heat recovery and heat valorization in industrial processes.

Energy Efficiency in the Industry
Reduce heating and cooling loads without negatively affect indoor air quality. Ventilation systems are big energy consumers, as the motors that require ventilators are often very powerful.
Improvements include: higher-performance equipment (energy-efficient motors and correctly-sized ventilators); appropriate sizing of the air processing system, reducing head loss in the network etc.; regulation (e.g. electronic speed regulators or stopping equipment).
Recovery of waste heat in the industrial processes, with re-use as thermal, mechanical, or electrical energy
Need to have short payback times (2-3 years)
ORC cyclesORC can play a non-negligible role for a decrease in the energy intensity of buildings and industry.
ORC is a mature technology for WHR, biomass CHP.Systems are mainly installed in the MW power range and very few ORC plants exist in the kW power range.
- Heat recovery on mechanical equipment and industrial processes: at low temperature, to convert heat into electricity (a potential of 3000MWe is estimated for power generation from industrial waste heat in Europe (EU-12)).
- Heat recovery on internal combustion engines.
The goal should be to increase the ORC efficiency (typically 16%) beyond 20%.

“Energy effi ciency is the most cost effective way to reduce emissions, improve energy security and competitiveness, make energy consumption more affordable for consumers as well as create employment, including in export industries” (COM(2010) 639 final)
Energy effi ciency is a major topic in the SET-Plan, as witnessed by the recent approval of the Energy Effi ciency Directive by the European Parliament.
With 24% of the final energy consumption and 60% of CO2 emissions, the European industry represents a huge area for the emergence of new products and solutions; this is particularly true in transverse operations as the solutions can apply in several industrial sectors.

KIC InnoEnergy – Thematic Field “Sustainable Nuclear and Renewable Energy Convergence” - Strategy and Roadmap v1
Other OEMs involved in electric motors, pumps, compressors, heat exchangers and heat pumps, and waste heat recovery, should be put onboard new innovation projects. A recent study 25 by ENEA Consulting with ADEME and TOTAL has highlighted the difficulties for the interested parties to organize collaborative projects and to obtain funding for innovation in EE in the industry. KIC InnoEnergy should bridge this gap in the next years and allow the emergence of new products and services for EE in the industry.

4. Nuclear Instrumentation
A. Market challenges and business drivers
Post Fukushima priorities
Although international organizations are anticipating slower long term global increase in worldwide nuclear power output than they were before the Fukushima accident, nuclear growth is still expected to occur in a number of countries. More than 60 nuclear reactors are under construction in the world.
However, the Fukushima nuclear accident has revealed the strong necessity to deepen research and developments in nuclear safety and radiation management. Post Fukushima nuclear roadmaps put a strong emphasis on these topics27,28,29:
“Nuclear instrumentation is still mainly based on safe but conservative technologies. Present and future competitiveness with the other power sources depends also on accurate and predictive knowledge of core behaviour. Advanced instrumentation and measurement methods, and efficient signal analysis can increase reliability, performance and competitiveness” (NUGENIA Roadmap)
The main topics to be developed by KIC InnoEnergy in nuclear, in relation with the philosophy of KIC InnoEnergy innovation projects (short or medium time to market) are:
Innovative Instrumentation and Measurement systems for the monitoring of materials and structures under severe conditions (high temperature, high neutron flux, high pressure…):
Innovative control / command systems: Increasingly demanding post-Fukushima regulations are generating high requirements on automation systems.
Due to the development time cycles, R&D on next nuclear reactors (generation IV, Small and Medium Reactors, fusion) is excluded from the scope of KIC InnoEnergy roadmap.
B. Technologies to address those challenges
Due to the post Fukushima challenges, present and future reactors need a complete new generation of on-line instrumentation and innovative advanced measurement methodologies:
Experimental benchmarks have to be more instrumented than in the past, especially with real-time analysis devices.
Page 33 of 41
KIC InnoEnergy – Thematic Field “Sustainable Nuclear and Renewable Energy Convergence” - Strategy and Roadmap v1
The large technological breakthroughs which appeared in the past recent years give opportunity to design and implement high performances sensors in a very harsh environment such as in the core of a nuclear reactor.
A more efficient instrumentation will allow an optimization of the reactor operation and efficiency
In 2013, SNETP30 and NUGENIA both issued their roadmaps. The NUGENIA roadmap includes R&D challenges in the instrumentation & measurement area:
• Technical Area 3 « Improved Reactor Operation »
Advanced and integrated approaches to maintenance and lifetime management of components and systems
Implementation of advanced digital technologies and diagnostics
• Technical Area 8
Non destructive testing – ultrasonic testing
Based on these roadmaps and on discussions with KIC InnoEnergy partners involved in nuclear, the roadmap on innovative instrumentation and measurement methods will address the following topics:
New systems for radiation monitoring at elevated temperatures. Innovative technologies for non-destructive testing Wireless sensors Fiber Optic sensors New simulation tools meant to help decision making for life prolongation
Instrumentation and Measurement techniques are a cross-cutting area that also impacts the entire energy chain from generation to consumption. Applications of advanced instrumentation and measurement techniques will be found in fossil fuel powered systems, in renewable energy, in energy transmission and distribution, and in energy use (demand responsive systems, smart buildings).
KIC InnoEnergy has today 2 innovation projects running:
I_SMART, Integrated Sensor System for material ageing and radiation testing HOBAN , Hard Optical Fiber Bragg Grating Sensors
Control-command systems consist of all systems in nuclear installations, which automatically perform actions and ensure regulatory functions or protection. The complexity of these systems has grown considerably in recent decades. They meet the growing needs of industrial piloting safer installation. They must also allow enhanced surveillance facilities, and encourage feedback from operations31.

Advanced material projects are most often not in the scope of InnoEnergy projects, due to low TRLs.
Energy Storage
Lithium batteriesNaS batteries
(modified)
These topics are now taken into account in a generic group “batteries”, including redox flow and Lead acid.
Batteries : cross-cutting topics (safety / recycling / BMS)
(new)
These topics are extremely important for the security, performance, lifetime, and life cycle assessment of all battery technologies. KIC InnoEnergy partners have strong competences there.
Energy Efficiency in the Industry Same topics as V1*
*with some precisions in the detailed subtopics, in particular for WHR.
Nuclear Same topics as V1**
**with addition of two new subtopics (wireless sensors and FO sensors) in Instrumentation.
