Descrizione del progetto
Costruire un partenariato europeo per la fusione competitivo e collaborativo
L’energia di fusione promette di fornire energia abbondante, pulita ed efficiente; ciononostante, la maggior parte delle tecnologie di fusione nucleare sono ancora in fase di sviluppo o di sperimentazione e non sono ancora pronte per l’impiego a livello commerciale. Il progetto GO4FUSION, finanziato dall’UE, si propone di gettare le basi per una comunità europea dell’energia da fusione competitiva e duratura e per un futuro partenariato pubblico-privato (PPP) in tal ambito. GO4FUSION sosterrà la crescita dell’industria europea della fusione, proteggerà la proprietà intellettuale degli innovatori e delle innovazioni e promuoverà un trasferimento tecnologico sicuro ed efficiente all’interno del settore, istituendo inoltre un’associazione rappresentativa per le organizzazioni correlate, pianificando la R&S attuale e futura e preparandosi per l’instaurazione del PPP.
Obiettivo
The GO4FUSION project will lay the groundwork for a strong, collaborative European fusion energy community, preparing for the future establishment of a Public-Private Partnership (PPP). This PPP will facilitate funding for industrial and R&D activities. Key objectives include consolidating the European Fusion Stakeholder Network (EFSN), creating an industry-led association representing European fusion industries and research organizations, and developing a Strategic Research and Innovation Agenda (SRIA) to shape short, medium and long-term R&D in fusion. Additionally, GO4FUSION will explore the creation of a trade association to support the growth of the European fusion industry through advocacy, networking, and education. The project will also address intellectual property management and technology transfer, ensuring European innovations in the fusion sector are protected and effectively exploited. The future PPP must ensure the successful takeoff of fusion technology and support the accelerated advancement of research and innovation in this sector. This project will help enhance the visibility of fusion technology in Europe, targeting policymakers, citizens, industry, and researchers. The consortium will include major actors from the current fusion community, led by ENEA, the Italian agency for New Technologies, Energy and Sustainable Economic Development innovation. Major research institutes from France, Germany, Italy, and Spain will complement the consortium, alongside key industrial players. This consortium is well-suited to building the fusion community in Europe and possesses the necessary knowledge and network to engage the entire fusion value chain, driving the establishment of the future partnership and fostering Europe’s strategic autonomy and competitiveness for the future commercial deployment of fusion energy.
