Objective
The objective of this Thematic Network (TM) is to coordinate RTD projects in industrial gas turbines, including projects from FPIV and FPV covering fossil fuels and biomass; and gas turbines in CHP applications and combined cycles. Technology is divided into four clusters; turbo machinery, combustion, materials and systems. The TM will operate through cluster workshops and dissemination will be through biennial conferences. Implications of the RTD programme for training will be considered. The partnership represents gas turbine manufacturers across Europe, together with a research establishment; a university and a gas supply company. Partnerships who submit successful RTD proposals to this call of the Energy programme suitable for inclusion in this TM will be invited to join.
