Technologies are changing rapidly, and they affect the conventional utility business models. Technology Foresight (TF) Project was initiated in 2016. It aims at leveraging the existing capabilities and experiences of IERE members to find some commonalities and joint work.
Identification of the key areas of technology development thorough the project can benefit all IERE members.
The TF2020 project selected Top 5 critical and Top 15 emergency technologies and summarized the outline. Also it extracted 5 Fringe (black swan) technologies that potentially will cause major disruptions to the way we build and operate our energy systems.
IERE central office sent questionnaires on Technology Foresight Activities (Report of Technology Foresight 2020) to all members in June, 2017. Evaluation for TF2020 activities, next steps for long range and building a collaborative relationship and the possibility of in-depth research on selected fringe technologies by young engineers/researchers of members were asked among members. IERE central office shares the answers for the questionnaire.
IERE central office hopes it will help the strategy building of your R&D in business.

IERE has been conducting the survey on the Key Technology (the Q.1 of the questionnaire on Technology Foresight Activities) for new members until 2020. The results of the questionnaire have been summarized in the "Collaboration Map" (shown below) for the purpose of promoting communication among the members. The Map is a search system for collaboration partners on the website. The responding members to the questionnaire have been able to check the areas of interest of other responding members, which have helped promotion for various joint research. (The Collaboration Map was shared among survey respondents who agreed to open the organization name.)
