Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

6. Proposed Approach
In EU proposals, technologies present solution by value chain (partnership in technology)
European Commission introduced Smart Specialisation (S3) for regional economic growth. In that regional
identify strong areas and specialize. The actors in the area will create economic growth. This create
growth of Europe. In reality, gathering partners and collaborations in strong area is finding a value chain.
Most researchers have not even heard about Smart Specialisation. Adding a partner in that for knowledge
transfer and innovation capacity is an added value. EU regional strategies and EU project align and create
synergies. Motivation is stronger. When two equally good project proposals are compared, the one with
smart specialisation will be favored since it aligns EU interests.
Alminica AB is looking for partners with sustainable technology proposals to support with knowledge
transfer to create higher probability to implement them (my personal motivation is sustainability)
Organisational Capabilities
My combined competence is unique. There is
no similar SME that provides innovation
service (knowledge transfer) and has leading
technology knowhow (I was 26 years in
research).

HORIZON-CL5-2021-D3-03-02: Next generation of renewable energy technologies
7. Proposed Approach
Scope: Reservoir development and exploitation within an untested geological setting of south west
of England by use of innovative technologies for repeatable success.
Problem Solving: Angus Energy considers that for a geothermal project to be successful, geological
risk, well costs, facilities costs, connection costs and efficiency must all be addressed holistically.
We plan to deliver this by:
1. utilising our existing oil and gas techniques to de risk the geological setting
2. reduce the cost of drilling by innovative well design and completion techniques
3. research, pilot and implement alternative turbine designs to improve efficiency
4. select surface sites with grid and direct heat and electricity connection
Partners:
We have already engaged with a range of supply chain partners; however, we are looking to
enhance our team with specialists in fault system assessment, fluid flow and reservoir modelling,
analysis and interpretation of heat flow, rock thermal properties, percussion drilling, impulse
turbine design.
Organisational Capabilities
Existing UK based SME onshore oil and gas
exploration company transitioning to geothermal.
Capabilities:
1. Existing wellbore assets in the UK to test new
technology
2. Access and contacts to drilling rigs and
suppliers within the UK and Europe.
3. Landowner relationships to access multiple sub
surface targets.
4. Well design adapted from decades of oil and
gas drilling.
5. Geological analysis and interpretation
6. Consenting and project management
7. Local and national grid connection knowledge
Experience
By applying our existing onshore UK exploration and production oil and gas experience, our goal is
to convert this wealth of experience and know how into geothermal.
We have bolstered our competency with a new hire from Imperial College London whose recent
thesis, supported by Angus Energy, on geophysical datasets concluded that this area is viable and
an extremely promising area for geothermal production.
We are engaged with renewable financiers to support a long term vision of replicating the initial
pathfinder site across multiple locations in the local area for direct electrical and heat supply and
connection to grid. We have opened discussion with National Grid plc on this point.

Proposed Approach
Energy technologies are heterogeneous as the resources they target. Many of them are usually
jointly operated in complex scenarios for the fulfilment of the application requirements. To this aim,
control and optimization technologies are necessary since these target would be non attainable
otherwise.
As experts in control of thermal storages (among the others), we aim at developing advanced
mathematical models and corresponding control and optimization algorithms for their operations
in different applications, such as, e.g., power-2-thermal for the provision of ancillary services to the
grid, district heating, decarbonization of industry, etc.
We look for partners requiring use and improvements of thermal storages, e.g., due to thermal
waste. We have contacts with developers of innovative thermal storage solutions.

24. Proposed Approach
What is your understanding of the part of the problem you can solve?
- Widespread use of biofuels is inhibited by the significant energy burden of fuel recovery as part of
the production process. We aim to recover biofuels and bio-chemicals from the fermentation broth
using integrated membrane technology.
What part of the Scope do you want to address?
- Carbon-negative sustainable biofuel production
If you are looking for partners, what type of partners are you looking for?
- Industrial Manufacturer, related process techniques to be integrated, the process evaluation
Organisational Capabilities
What skills, capabilities, facilities does your
organisation have that will be vital for this project?
- Materials chemistry, process integration, energy
system and system evaluation
- Membrane fabrication and process test rigs in
the lab
Is your organisation academic, SME, big business,
etc (and explain the benefits to this project of
whichever you are)
- Academic research University
Experience
What previous, relevant, work or track record can you bring to the team?
- The development on membrane technology resulted in excellent publication output and several
successful industrial projects. To recover biofuels, we successfully bid two Research England
projects underpinned by the Biorenewables Development Centre (York) and industrial end users,
such as Biome Bioplastics, Chip[s]board Co., and Nanjing Jiusi Membrane Co.
- Bid success for the 2021 Universities COP26 Network’s Innovation Showcase in the theme of
Energy transitions to the UK: Testing membranes as a low carbon solution in biofuel production.
