Promoting R&D in hydraulic electricity and biomass for Midi-Pyrénées and solar energies for Languedoc-Roussillon. Supporting energy policies across the regions FUI : Single Interministerial Fund provides support for R&D projects between firms and laboratories from French cluster NRA : French National Research Agency provides support for academics projects The Greater Metropolitan area of Perpignan has also aligned its policies with the French Government’s “Green New Deal” through its “Positive Energy City by 2015” framework agreement. The aim of this approach is to produce enough fully renewable energy across the Greater Metropolitan area by 2015 to exceed consumption requirements by using several different sources of energy (solar, wind, heat recovery). The world’s largest integrated photovoltaic plant in Perpignan: 70,000 m2 (segment 1) in photovoltaic roofing on top of the Saint-Charles market (European redistribution center dedicated to Mediterranean fruits and vegetables) total ing €55 mi l l ion in investments The European technological innovation platform Thémis Solaire Innovation (partnership including the Languedoc- Roussillon General Council and region, Promes- CNRS and Derbi cluster), hosts “industrial pilots” in the field of concentrated photovoltaic and thermodynamic solar technologies Examples of R&D Projects Blidar: a buoy for measuring offshore wind speeds next to wind turbines This project aims to design and manufacture a floating system for measuring offshore wind speeds based on the measurement technology already used on land. The Blidar buoy, offering maximum flexibility, can be used, particularly in offshore wind farm sites and regardless of water depth, to measure wind speeds up to 200m above sea level. This new sea-based measurement technology will be more useful than the current measurement masts from a technical, financial and environmental viewpoint. No heavy equipment is required, it is quick and easy to install, is movable and is less visible than other measurement technologies. Existing collaborations - - IMEDER, Mediterranean sea ALMEE (Lebanese association for the Control of the Energy and the Environment), Lebanon BORJ CEDRIA – Ecopark, Tunisia ASBL Cluster Eco-construction de Namur, Belgium SOLARTYS, Spain INSTITUT CATALA D’ENERGIA (Generalitat de Catalunya) EUROGIA+, Belgium Rider: improving the energy efficiency of buildings The Rider project aims to develop an innovative IT system that will improve the energy efficiency of a building or group of buildings. The system will enable the exchange of energy between the different buildings by integrating traditional, renewable and “unavoidable” energies, such as heat generated by an industrial process.
