CEN & CENELEC Sector Fora

A Sector Forum is a platform aiming at facilitating the exchange of information between the various stakeholders impacted by, involved in or interested in the European standardization activities in a particular domain. It also constitutes a convenient means of coordinating the standardization activities and identifying new standardization needs.

Actual sector Fora:

Strategic Advisory Group on Accessibility (SAGA)

Sector Forum Energy Management (SFEM)

Strategic Advisory Board for Occupational Health and Safety (SAB OH&S)

Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Sector Forum

Advisory Board for Healthcare Standards (ABHS)

Sector Forum Rail

WS 2014 DG JRC-EARTO-CEN/CENELEC on Hydrogen “Power to Gas”

CEN & CENELEC Sector Forum Energy Management strategy 2020:

14

Concentrate on a few new priority topics: Renewable Energy Sources priority needs

Ocean Energies (consistent with EC communication COM (2014) 8 of January 2014 on ”Blue Energy”. Action needed to deliver on the potential of ocean energy in European seas and oceans by 2020 and beyond”.

Energy Transition (i.e. Power System Flexibility in a low carbon context)

Energy Storage

Hydrogen-Energy technologies, with challenging roles in energy storage strategies, optimized use of intermittent renewable energy production, “green” fuels and gas, etc… - Power to Gas

Transport and Energy Management (continue)

CEN & CENELEC Sector Forum Energy Management strategy 2020:

15

SFEM as a strategy and advisory body for CEN and CENELEC in the field of Energy Efficiency, Energy Management, Renewable Energy Sources

SFEM as an open platform for exchanging information - opportunities to gather comments, advices and expertise from a wide range of stakeholders and users – identifying needs and gaps, making recommendations for new work.

SFEM from its strategy 2020 – consistent with priority topics on Energy transition, Energy storage, Renewables and Hydrogen-Energy

SFEM should launch new Working Groups on Hydrogen-Energy and Energy Transition

CEN & CENELEC Research & Innovation Standards allow faster uptake of innovative solutions and enhance the economic value of research and innovation projects.

Integrating standards in your research projects will enable the:

Developing a European standard means potential access to the entire European market

Standards codify state of the art innovative products and services, and are often used as references in public procurement schemes.

Codification of the state of the art

Existing standards can codify and spread state of the art developments to various technologies. The need for additional standards can lead to the identification of new research needs and thus new ideas for research projects.

Interoperability of results

Standards provide a basis for the integration of technologies into complex, innovative systems and solutions, and assist in ensuring interoperability. By developing or making use of standards your project will ensure results which are adapted to market conditions.

Reassure consumers

Standards can offer reassurance to consumers in the application of new technologies, for example through the assessment of risks, the measurement of performance, etc...
