1 Finistère … part of Region Bretagne Major companies & 159 SMEs (28 500 emp.) 2 900 public & private researchers Universities & High School 2000 graduates / year 315 members develop innovative products and services 116 cooperation projects representing 400 M€ R&D budget over 5 themes: Maritime safety and maritime security Shipbuilding and leisure boatbuilding Marine, fossil and renewable energy resources (inc. ocean energy-renewable energy) Marine biological resources Coastal environment planning and development An international competitiveness cluster

2 National Collaborations

3 Innovative Technologies WINFLO Goal / innovation : The 5 MW prototype will be installed off the Brittany coast at depths of over 50 meters and will be connected to the electricity grid. It will require a specially designed, lightweight robust turbine housing that will be erected on a semi-submersible platform anchored to the seabed using catenary mooring cables. Global amount of R&D : 38,9 M€ Companies: NASS & WIND, DCNS, SAIPEM, (through its subsidiary SOFRESID Engineering), In Vivo Environnement. Research centres: Ifremer, ENSTA Bretagne.

4 Innovative Technologies Goal / innovation : 3,5 MW offshore floating wind turbine is erected on a tension leg platform (TLP). This inovative concept is dedicated to deep offshore application Global amount of R&D : 17,8 M€ Companies: Blue H France, Institut de la corrosion, Timolor, Lorima, Actimar, Astrium. Research centres: UBO, École Centrale de Nantes, CETI DIWET

5 Innovative Technologies SABELLA Goal / innovation : Exploitation of tidal currents energy through a fully immerged turbine. A pre-industrial 10 meters turbine (350 KW) will be installed in Brittany. Global amount of R&D : 10,2M€ Companies: Sabella SAS, SAIPEM (through its subsidiary SOFRESID Engineering), Dourmap, CIB-Meunier, In Vivo Environnement, Institut de la corrosion Research centres: UBO, Irenav, EGIM Marseille.

6 Innovative Technologies Goal / innovation : Demonstrator of a 1 MW tidal current turbine Global amount of R&D : 28 M€ Companies: ALSTOM, EDF, STX, NEXANS, SECTOR, Stat-Marine, Research centres: ECN, IFREMER, IUEM, CETIM, INP Toulouse, ARTS. ORCA

7 Innovative Technologies MEGAWATFORCE Goal / innovation : the MegaWatForce underwater turbine will harness the power of currents. A key feature is that no electricity will pass underwater: water under pressure will pass along a submerged pipe to where the electricity is produced, namely a turbine generator installed on shore or on a floatting platform. Global amount of R&D : 8,2 M€ Companies: Guinard Energies, Doris Engineering, Freyssinet, BEC. Research centres: EPFL, Ifremer

8 Innovative Technologies BLUSTREAM Goal / innovation : the Blustream underwater turbine will harness the power of currents. Global amount of R&D : 11 M€ Companies: Le Gaz Integral, Guinard Energies, Bernard&Bonnefond. Research centres: Ifremer, Ensta Bretagne

9 Innovative Technologies BILBOQUET Goal / innovation : Bilboquet project aims at creating a new high-output electricity generating system, based on wave energy conversion, using the movement of a guided buoy to drive a generator. Amount of R&D : 3,8 M€ Companies: D2M, CMD, CervVal, Breizadic, Adetel Equipment, Oceanide, Bureau Véritas Research center: Ifremer

10 Innovative Technologies ESPADON Goal / innovation : The ESPADON project will demonstrate the industrial and economic feasibility of a cold water pipeline for the production of Ocean Thermal Energy (OTEC), will ensure its reliability and will measure its environmental impact. The project will provide the basis for developing an OTEC plant capable of generating renewable energy for isolated offshore sites and islands. Global amount of R&D : 6 M€ Companies: DCNS, Total Research center: Ifremer

11 Innovative Technologies Goal / innovation : produce biofuel from the use of microalgaes cultivated in a former kaolin quarry Global amount of R&D : 2,1 M€ Companies: SARP Industries, Sodaf Geo Étanchéité, Imerys ceramics France Research centres: IFREMER. SAFEOIL

12 Innovative Technologies Goal / innovation : alternative solution to offshore measurement mast to measure wind speed profile Global amount of R&D : 1,8 M€ Companies: La Compagnie du Vent, NKE, LEOSPHERE. Research centres: IFREMER. BLIDAR

13 Innovative Technologies Goal / innovation : Instrumented buoy for ecology monitoring. To be installed in offshore wind park, it will be able to measure the number of fish, cetaceans and birds cruising in the area and record their trajectory and behaviours Global amount of R&D : 3 M€ Companies: BIOTOPE, NKE. Research centres: IRD, IFREMER. SIMEO
