MatISSE Workshop on cross-cutting issues in structural materials for future energy systems

MatISSE Workshop on Structural Materials for future Energy Systems

Dates: November 25-26, 2015

Location: Institute for Energy and Transport, Petten, The Netherlands

Objective:

Materials, structural as well as functional, are key for the development and implementation of lowcarbon, clean, efficient and reliable energy technologies. Although the different energy systems such as renewables (e.g. wind, concentrated solar, photovoltaics), nuclear and “clean” fossil technologies, have different challenges, there are also many cross-cutting issues and needs. The purpose of this Workshop, organized as part of the EU funded 7th Framework project MaTISSE, is to discuss the present status of structural materials research and development for future energy systems and in particular to identify common topics and sharing knowledge between different energy technologies.

Organization:

The Workshop is a two day event.It will be organized around four cross-cutting issues:

• High temperature applications: Steels and metallic alloys and Ceramics;
• Liquid metal/metal (or other) compatibility;
• Design Codes;
• Advanced steels – development and manufacturing.

Each session will consist of consist of invited keynote speakers from two different energy technologies and presentations of associated research in European projects. The keynote presentations will be 30-40 minutes including questions whereas the other presentations will be 20 minutes including questions. A final wrap-up session will be dedicated to identifying joint research activities across different energy technologies.

Audience:

The Workshop is targeting stakeholders from research organizations, academia, industry and national and international funding organizations.
