Executive Summary IRESEN is leader within the MAGHRENOV consortium of the task of “Knowledge and infrastructures for innovation”. This work package aims at increasing a shared knowledge on the conditions of innovation for RE&EE in the EuroMed context, focusing on Maghreb to start with. The deliverable D3.6 “List of existing facilities along with the ESFRI classification scheme” aims at the establishment of a database of existing research infrastructures in Maghreb area taking into consideration the ESFRI classification scheme and also the Existing data from ESFRI.
The Methodology was based on an integrated approach focused on questionnaire, documents studies, survey, and interviews with experts.
This deliverable is logically arrives ahead of future MAGHRENOV project deliverables in the work package “Knowledge and Infrastructures for Innovation”, namely:
D3.4 Catalogue of evaluated competences (KIC IE SE) D3.5 Prioritization of joint objectives for R&D and support to innovation (ANME) D3.7 Workshop articulating with ESFRI Agenda D3.8 Investment opportunity reports on Infrastructures
1 Introduction The objective of the Deliverable 3.6 is to identify the existing facilities in Morocco, Tunisia in the field of Renewable energies and Energy efficiency along with the ESFRI classification scheme. This deliverable is an important cornerstone to prepare the further launch of an experimental call and brokerage event for joint innovative projects in the area of RE&EE in January 2015. It will help to identify collaborative R&D infrastructures, which should be taken into consideration by MAGHRENOV Consortium partners - KIC InnoEnergy (The Netherlands), IRESEN (Morocco), R&D Maroc (Morocco) and ANME (Tunisia) - to launch new call for proposals and to develop new roadmaps of research infrastructure development.

2 List of Existing Facilities Along with the ESFRI Classification Scheme
2.1 Context of the Document As part of the MAGHRENOV project activities, IRESEN is leading the elaboration of the list of existing facilities along with the ESFRI classification scheme. This document will be used in the framework of the joint call for proposals which will be launched in February 2015 in order to evaluate the impact and the relevance of the submitted projects. Also this document will represent a decision making tool which can be used to develop new R&D strategies.
2.2 Facilities or Infrastructures in ESFRI Classification ESFRI, “The European Strategy Forum on Research Infrastructures”, is a strategic instrument to develop the scientific integration of Europe and to strengthen its international outreach. The competitive and open access to high quality Research Infrastructures supports and benchmarks the quality of the activities of European scientists, and attracts the best researchers from around the world.
The mission of ESFRI is to support a coherent and strategy-led approach to policy-making on research infrastructures in Europe, and to facilitate multilateral initiatives leading to the better use and development of research infrastructures, at EU and international level. The term ‘Research Infrastructures –RIs-’ refers to facilities, resources and related services used by the scientific community to conduct top-level research in their respective fields, ranging from social sciences to astronomy, genomics to nanotechnologies. RIs may be:
F ‘Single-sited’ (a single resource at a single location), F ‘Distributed’ (a network of distributed resources), F ‘Virtual’ (the service is provided electronically).
RIs play an increasingly important role in the advancement of knowledge and technology. They are a key instrument in bringing together a wide diversity of stakeholders to look for solutions to many of the problems society is facing today. RIs offer unique research services to users from different countries, attract young people to science, and help to shape scientific communities. New knowledge and, by implication, innovation, can only emerge from high-quality and accessible RIs. Moreover, RIs help to create a new research environment in which all researchers - whether working in the context of their home institutions or in national or multinational scientific initiatives - have shared access to unique or distributed scientific facilities (including data, instruments, computing and communications), regardless of their type and location in the world. RIs are therefore at the centre of triangle of research, education and innovation, producing knowledge through research, diffusing it through education, and applying it through innovation.

2.3 ESFRI Classification Scheme The ESFRI classification concerns 8 research areas and 33 sub-areas including energy with 6 sub-areas. For example, the area Energy contains 6 sub-areas as follows: Biomass, Electricity, Fuel Cell, PV, Solar and wind without including energy efficiency. ESFRI had accounted 120 RIs in the area of energy. The database of ESFRI lists RIs per EU country and associated projects and for every RIs the following information are presented following the information:
Country information Name City Country
RIs information Name Description Area Sub-area EU contribution Duration Web site

3 Methodology and Work Approach In order to prepare a questionnaire, different categories of facilities have been identified from the ESFRI definition. Thus, 6 kinds of RIs were identified without forgetting web sites and other facilities.
Figure 2: Categories of RIs According to ESFRI Definitions
To complete the ESFRI list, a questionnaire has been established using docs.google.com/forms in order to collect information following the sections:
F General information (name, country, organization, e-mail address...etc.)
F Activity sector of the organization (Education, R&D and Innovation, R&D funding, administration and Other sector)
F Category of RIs in the organization (Lab, projects, research platforms, virtual competence and expertise platform or network, Database, archives, web sites, other RIs)
F Field of RIs (Photovoltaic, Thermal, Wind, Grid integration, biomass and bio energy, energy efficiency)
F RIs details (name, activity sector, partners, budget).
The questionnaire is an opportunity to include fields, which were not included by ESFRI as a sub-area. Consequently, we have included –Energy efficiency- and –Grid integration-.
The questionnaire was sent to experts and relevant personalities in the field of R&D infrastructures in Morocco and Tunisia in cooperation with ANME.

2. SFERA PROJECT: Solar facilities For the European Area
Concentrated solar power (CSP) is a very promising renewable source of energy. The best known application so far is bulk electricity generation through thermodynamic cycles, but other applications have also been demonstrated, such as production of hydrogen and solar fuels, water treatment and research in advanced materials. This EU-funded research project - SFERA - aims to boost scientific collaboration among the leading European research institutions in solar concentrating systems, offering European research and industry access to the best research and test infrastructures and creating a virtual European laboratory. The project incorporates the following activities: - Transnational Access: Researchers will have access to five state-of-the-art high-flux solar research facilities, unique in Europe and in the world. Access to these facilities will help strengthen the European Research Area by opening installations to European and partner countries' scientists, thereby enhancing cooperation. - Networking: These include the organisation of training courses and schools' to create a common training framework, providing regularised, unified training of young researchers in the capabilities and operation of concentrating solar facilities. Communication activities will seek to both strengthen relationships within the consortium, creating a culture of cooperation, and to communication to society in general, academia and especially industry what SFERA is and what services are offered. - The Joint Research Activities aim to improve the quality and service of the existing infrastructure, extend their services and jointly achieve a common level of high scientific quality.
3. BRISK PROJECT: Biofuels Research Infrastructure
BRISK is a €10.84M four-year initiative with €8.98M funded under EC FP7 (Ref: 284498). The initiative runs from 1st October 2011 to September 2015. BRISK is coordinated by Kungliga Tekniska Hoegskolan (KTH) Stockolm, and includes partners from Austria, Denmark, Finland, Germany, Greece, Italy, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey and the UK (see list below). BRISK aims to develop a European Research Infrastructure for Thermochemical Biomass Conversion, supporting R&D on innovative processes to convert sustainable feedstock (agricultural/forestry wastes and energy crops) into liquid, gaseous or solid fuels. Production of sustainable biofuels through advanced thermochemical conversion units and biorefineries will enable a wider range of feedstock to be utilised, making a significant contribution to EU targets for GHG reduction (20% by 2020 and 50% by 2050) and increased use of renewable energy sources in the transport sector. Enhanced energy security and integration with other industrial sectors, such as agriculture, also play a role. The specific aim of BRISK is to overcome fragmentation in R&D facilities for thermochemical technologies, by enabling researchers to have access to high-level experimental facilities and services across Europe. The BRISK network will encourage and facilitate cooperative research in the specialised laboratories of project partners. The facilities are also open to researchers outside the project.
4. MARINET PROJECT: the Marine Renewable Infrastructure Network

Figure 6: Geographical Distribution of EU RIs
4.3 Conclusion: European RIs The European RIs is very rich and dynamic into a global approach, which aims to create complementarity between all the existing RIs in European area. The macro-level strategy which has been adopted by Europe allows identifying areas research needs, areas RIs needs, existing RIs’s categories and needs, consequently in a meso-level, national strategies were developed combining European and national needs in order to implement shared and qualified RIs for European Area.
The European model is very important to follow up especially for the Maghreb area where RIs are under developing.

5.3 Conclusion: Moroccan RIs There is 113 RIs in Morocco in the field of RE & EE all around the country with more than 87 projects and laboratories. Universities, engineering schools or new institutions are working on new R&D projects, implementing new research centres, developing new research platforms, creating new data bases and virtual or single sited competence networks in order to participate to a real development of renewable & EE in the country. This dynamic can be more efficient if the implementation of all RIs is happening into a national strategy, which can optimise the existing and adopt the offer to real needs.

6 List of Existing Facilities in Tunisia Unfortunately, only one institution “Tunisian research and Technology Center of Energy-CRTEn-” has answered to our questionnaire and the study has been completed by a survey.
6.1 Categories and Distribution 6.1.1 Categories RIs in Tunisia are divided into 6 categories as follows:
Figure 18: Distribution of RIs per Category in Tunisia
Projects represent the majority part of Tunisian RIs with 41% followed by Laboratories with 18%. This situation may be characterizing RIs in Maghreb. Laboratories were implemented in universities and engineering schools which helped to create a critical mass in some research areas and consequently every experts teams tried to develop new R&D projects and get funding from different national and international programs. Regarding the research areas, more than 50% of RIs are working on Ren without being able to precise exactly the research area. However, 36% of Tunisian RIs are working on PV and Thermal Solar and 9% leaded research in Bio energy area.

6.2 Conclusion: Tunisian RIs The results of Tunisian case study show that there is similarity between Maghreb countries. Indeed, RIs is based especially on projects and laboratories, which generate the creation of experts’ networks and teams who work on research activities but in a Micro-level.

7 Conclusion The development of research in a country or a specific area can’t be done without a qualified and structured Research Infrastructures (RIs) which must be developed through a global or national strategy that should take into consideration needs of the country, the development’s objectives for specific areas and the existing RIs. The combination of all these elements is the main solution to develop qualified RIs. The European model in implementing RIs represents the future of RIs’s situation in Maghreb and should be followed in order to adapt RIs offers to needs and to optimize funding. This model can be implemented through three levels:
1. Macro-level: represents national or regional level and give information about development strategies, areas research priorities, research needs and also the researcher’s needs.
2. Meso-level: Can be a country if the first one is regional or a region if the macro level is a country. This level can provide us with information about the existing RIs and the existing areas expertise.
3. Micro-level: can be cities, universities, research centres and inform us about the topics and research activities which are developed in single sited laboratories specifying what kinds of scientific equipment are used.
There is many RIs in the Maghreb (Morocco and Tunisia) without any national strategies which guide the RIs implementation and development. Consequently, we have many similar RIs concentrated in specific research areas when there is no offer to cover research needs in other research areas. Referring to this study and results, there is some recommendations that should be taking into consideration in order to ensure a real RIs development: Recommendation 1: To identify regional/national strategic objectives in the field of renewable energies and energy efficiency and the contribution of R&D to the achievement of these objectives. This recommendation concerns the Macro-level which should be diagnosed in a detailed way in order to identify the strategic objectives, the regional orientations, needs and potentials in terms of renewable energies and energy efficiency. Recommendation 2: Overview of RIs and competences mapping (region/national level) The overview of the existing RIs and competences can contribute into the creation of competences poles. It represents the Meso-level which should give information about the regional expertise, expertise areas, research areas, existing RIs, quality and existing equipments. Recommendation 3: Pooling of existing RIs within research platforms This step aims to optimise existing RIs, expertise and competences through the creation of research platforms, which can be single sited or distributed. They should be specific to identified topics, research areas and needs (recommendation 1 and 2). Recommendation 4: Promotion and funding of research platforms The creation of good and qualified research platforms into a global and integrated strategy may help to the development of regional research hub which can be promoted to international donors in order to get enough funding through R&D projects, equipment donation.... etc.

9 Annex 2. MAGHRENOV QUESTIONNAIRE
QUESTIONNAIRE ON EXISTING FACILITIES ALONG WITH THE ESFRI CLASSIFICATION SCHEME (RENEWABLE AND ENERGY EFFICIENCY) This questionnaire is developed in the framework of MAGHRENOV project and will contribute to collect information about existing facilities or research infrastructure (RIs)* in the field of renewable and energy efficiency in the Mediterranean region. The questionnaire includes the ESFRI classification of facilities and takes into consideration the classification guidelines of ESFRI. *RIs: Research Infrastructures. It refers to facilities, resources and related services used by the scientific community and it may be ‘single-sited’ (a single resource at a single location), ‘distributed’ (a network of distributed resources), or ‘virtual’ (the service is provided electronically).
