General Aspects of ESA Technology Programmes

Strategy and Programmes


Strategy Principles• Technology development belongs to the “enabling” type of activities of the Agency,

that also carries out “scientific” and “application” activities• The Agency strategy for Technology derives from the resolution on the European

Space Policy as developed in the DG’s vision and ESA’s LTP.• The key guiding principles are:

Space as a pillar of the knowledge based society and economySpace applications to serve citizens’needsEuropean security and defence needs as regards spaceProtection of operational systems, space situation awarenessIndustrial competitiveness and technological excellenceCapacity to act independently as well as a strong partner in international cooperation

• For the Technology Strategy this meansEnable the future European Space missions, science, applications, support security users,

SSAFoster innovationSupport competitivenessEnsure technology non-dependence Leverage on best technological progress outside the space sector, (spin-in)

Beyond ESA

• ESA is not the only customer• ESA technology strategy aims at achieving technology excellence, balance between

innovation and product support• Better when can not be cheaper


Innovation and Technological Excellence• Prospective studies• Observatory• Fast knowledge / technology transfer: • NPI, Networking Partnering Initiative• Strengthened TRP with its dedicated initiatives

ITI, Innovation triangle InitiativeStartiger, concurrent prototyping

• Technology reference and impact studies: system context, avalanche effects

• Fast reaction, AO mechanisms, ITI• Support to high TRL• Facilitate in-orbit demonstration• Cooperation new partners, HTA for MNT, Artemis JTI


Competitiveness• Balance innovation and product support –• Strengthened user drive and market perspective• All categories of firms, primes and not primes, groups and independent, research and

SME• Long-term planning and fast reaction, AO type• Standardization and modularity• Overcome “death valley”, resources to high TRL• Facilitating in-orbit demonstration• Counteract obsolescence

Dependence on Space Systems

We depend on space systems for elementary actions of daily life!We should be “non-dependent” to develop, deploy and operate such systems

Check weather report (satellite TV)

Weather report, Meteosat images, report based on data from GEO and LEO satellites (including Meteosat and MetOp), and other satellites

How to arrive at the workshop, Google maps, satellite version

Buy newspaper for the train, printed in Roubaix, transmitted via satellite from Madrid

Check e-mail in the train, internet broadband via satellite

Driving to destination, GNSS

News and entertainment, satellite TV


Non-dependence• Measures as ECI provide results, however new needs. Sustained action is required,

not only for components.

• Monitoring situation, Key Performance Indicator• Dedicated action, “building blocks and

components”• European cooperation: ESA, EC, EDA, Nationals

>> September event in Brussels• Synergies Civil, Defence• International cooperation

Conclusions• The TSLTP is fully in line with the ESP and has five main objectives

Prepare future European programmesFoster innovationStrengthen competitivenessStrengthen non-dependence Promote spin-in

• It is implemented in a series of corporate and domain specific programmes internally coordinated and harmonized with partners

• The needs of institutional European programmes establish the long-term user drive. The needs of primes, industry in general, establish the near-term user drive

• Technology development programmes have been strengthened and adapted to better support balanced innovation and product policy as the means to improve competitiveness and strengthen non-dependence
