The project is in full gear now and ready to take on its final year!
2019 is key for EnSO to ensure maximum outreach and impact of
the project’s results.
All efforts will be made towards boosting communication and
dissemination activities and speeding up exploitation.
The entire EnSO Team wishes you all the best for the New Year!
We look forward to seeing you at our next events and sharing our
latest advances with you!

- New use case:
Building heating system monitoringLed by IMA, this newly added use case aims to develop a wireless
temperature monitoring of a building central heating system
components as pipes, boilers and radiators. This information is
important for good heat distribution and heating system efficiency.
The temperature difference between the heating system element
and surrounding space can produce enough energy to operate a
monitoring device without a battery. For periods with lack of
energy the battery will be integrated, too. The system consists of
three parts: the sensor, the data collector connected to the Internet
and cloud visualization application.

EnSO: organizer of a Scientific
Symposium at the E-MRS Spring
2019 conferenceMembers of EnSO [CEA-LETI Grenoble, CNM-CSIC and TNO Eindhoven]
will hold a symposium on “Advanced materials, components &
processes for integrated autonomous micro-power sources” at the
EMRS Spring Meeting 2019 on May 27-31, 2019 in Nice, France.
This symposium will focus on new material developments & material
processing related to micropower sources, their design and integration
on shapeable substrates. Combinations of energy harvesting and
energy storage micro-devices open the way to optimized, possibly
‘perpetual’, energy supply.
Meet us there!
What’s on the horizon for 2019?
Speed up exploitation!
In 2019, specific actions will be taken to ensure efficient exploitation of
the developments performed within EnSO. Data will be provided for
each use case, explaining the business model of the involved partner,
the product developed and how it compares to existing products,
market data. Interviews of companies (use-case partners) within and
beyond the EnSO scope will be led by Blumorpho to understand the
strategy implemented. A session dedicated to “Exploitation of Results”
will be organized at the Project’s next Review Meeting with ECSEL JU
representatives.
Contribute actively to
standardization committees!EnSO makes a point in contributing to standards and regulations. The
project is represented in several technical standardization committees
and working groups such as IEC TC47/WG7: Semiconductor devices for
energy conversion and transfer, or IEC TC119 and IEC TC91. These
Committees will help detect and formalize the standardization process
on the new results obtained. ‘Standardization culture’ will also be
disseminated to Higher Education.
Boost Communication/Dissemination!Submit proposal to the next Common Dissemination Booster call.
Represent the project at distinguished EU/international scientific
conferences and workshops.
Release new videos of use cases, focusing on latest outcomes

Hello Steve! Before we discuss your technical role in EnSO, could
you tell us a bit about yourself and the city where you live/work?
Steve Martin: Of course! I have been working in Grenoble for several
years but since I prefer the countryside over the city, I have decided to
live in St Marcelin, a small town about 50 kms away from Grenoble. I
like to be out in the nature, climb mountains and play basketball. St
Marcelin is a very nice little town which I highly recommend visiting! It
is also well known for its cheese and walnuts!
Sounds lovely! I will definitely come and visit!
In EnSO you are in charge of WP2 whose main goal is to develop
and demonstrate very high capacity and very high density, low
profile, shapeable, long lifetime, rechargeable micro battery
product family. Could you tell us more about your role, what you
do, how you interact with the other partners?
S.M: OK! WP2 focuses on the production of micro-batteries for the
AMES. As a WP Leader, I manage the internal development. We
develop two kinds of generations of batteries in EnSO. I am also in
charge of the interactions with other WPs, mainly WP4, 5.
What are the challenges of generating micro-batteries? How are
they charged?
SM.: There are different challenges, depending on the generation of
micro-batteries. For Generation 2 micro-batteries, the biggest
challenge is to produce micro-batteries at very low cost. We therefore
develop special processes, i.e. high-throughput processes. The
challenge for Generation 3 micro-batteries lies in their size. They are
indeed very very small, only a few millimeters square, and we need to
use processes coming from the microelectronics. The biggest challenge
here is to proceed with the integration of these very small components.
As we aim to produce full autonomous components, micro-batteries
should be charged by energy harvesters such as solar cells,
piezoelectric or thermoelectric harvesting devices. The batteries are
also compatible with other harvesters.
Very nice! What is your experience with European projects, and
EnSO in particular? What are, you think, the positive outcomes of
participating in EU projects?
S.M: I have already been involved in many European projects and I can
say EnSO is a very good project. To me, one of its major strengths is
that it involves many end-users, which is important to us since knowing
the market’s needs and expectations helps us better orientate our
research and produce the right batteries.
Being involved in EU projects provides many opportunities such as
reaching out to people beyond your usual network. For example, we
have developed a very good collaboration with the University of Liège.
At the end of EnSO, we will even replace our own materials with theirs
since they have shown higher performance.

EnSO has been accepted for funding within the Electronic Components and Systems for European Leadership joint undertaking in collaboration with the European Union's H2020 framework programme (H2020/2014-2020) and National Authorities, under grant agreement n° 692482
