Technology Roadmaps

In this task, expert panels will guide the development of Technology Roadmaps along the dimensions of technology maturity and market acceptance potential. The expert network will involve decision makers and actors from industry, academy and finance, which will regularly participate in programme and project assessments as well as in-house internal foresight exercises. In addition to engagement through online tools, three technology workshops with 10 participants each are foreseen for this purpose. The scheme will also be extended to advanced cost evaluation models enabling future cost projections that will then be used directly in the definition of pathways in WP1 and the modelling tools. The resulting Technology Roadmaps will identify the points in technology R&D at which the value chain can positively be influenced to reduce costs and increase market deployment potential.
