New faces of STC

    Implemented since 2018

    In 2018, when France Energies Marines moved from calls for projects to the so-called annual R&D consolidation, we had to find an alternative to the review of our projects by experts from the National Research Agency. An international Scientific & Technological Committee (STC) was then set up.

    Valuable advisory opinion and wise recommendations

    This Committee is made up of independent experts whose mission is to critically review our roadmap and to make recommendations for the improvement of R&D projects carried out by our Institute. On this last point, they are invited to judge the scientific quality of the subjects dealt with and the consortia set up, as well as the proper allocation of human and financial resources. The advisory opinion they give is forwarded to the Institute’s Board of Directors, which selects the projects selected.

    Internationally renowned experts

    Our STC experts are chosen for their experience in the industrial field and/or in applied R&D projects. They are references in their field of competence who work in prestigious foreign institutes. They thus have a good idea of the impact of our work on the expectations of those involved in the marine renewable energy sector. The members of the Committee have just been renewed because their investment in supporting the Institute is strong and we must not always mobilise the same people.
