The Topical Groups


EFDA new Art. 5 EFDA new Art. 5

EFDA Art. 5 foresees implementation of activities through Task Agreements• TAs will cover groups of activities with common goals • agreed between the EFDA Leader and the participating Associations• implementation: using provisions of the contracts of Association• upon proposal of the EFDA Steering Committee, the CCE-FU may define priority actions

(up to 40% Euratom contributions)

=> TAs are main tools for the implementation of the Workprogramme => TA elaborated on the basis of the Workprogramme (activities foreseen under P.S. identified in the WP)=> participation of Associations elaborated on the basis of a Call for Participation=> TA template agreed

definition of work under Baseline Support and Priority Support objectives and milestones work breakdown defining contributions of each Association

Implementing Agreements are also foreseen in Art 5:• IAs for cooperative activities based on the use of a facility or a device• Implementing Agreements concluded between the Commission and the Associates

concernedSince October 2008 new IA in force on operation and exploitation of the HPC for Fusion (Dedicated European High Performance Computer for Fusion Applications at Jülich Supercomputing Centre)


JET ActivitiesJET Activities

No JET related activities are meant to be implemented under the present Task Agreement. (They are implemented under EFDA Art.6.)

JET activities can be mentioned for information in the present TA when they closely relate to the activity implemented under Art.5. JET data collected under the JET part of the EFDA WP can be brought together with other data under this TA when relevant for the progress of the work or used in multi- machine modelling activities under Art.5.

EU Task Force on Plasma-Wall Interaction


EFDA new Art. 5: Priority SupportEFDA new Art. 5: Priority Support

New Rules for Priority Support in FP7:cooperative activities (hardware and manpower)

• Activity eligible for priority support : • Well identified actions, including: • TF and SEWG leadership (0.5 ppy for TF leader and deputies, 0.25 ppy

for SEWG leadership)• joint activities: experimentation, modelling, support to the other

Associations, etc.• selected hardware or manpower costs involving irradiation, work on hot

cells, work with tritium and/or beryllium + collaborative actions specific for the TA

The proposals are top-down: priorities identified by the TF, approved in the EFDA work programme and then subject to a Call to the Associations

Funding under Priority Support is limited and PS is used as a strong incentive for strengthening cooperation


ReportsReports

•Baseline Support At the end of each calendar year, during the PWI TF annual

meeting, the Task Coordinator shall present a report on all activities (baseline and priority support) under the Task Agreement to the EFDA Leader for his approval. These reports shall integrate the progress made by each Association on each activity, and they shall indicate the level of achievement of the objectives, the situation of the activities, the allocation of resources and recommendations for the next year when applicable.

Templates defined

•Priority Support Achievement of Priority Support deliverables will be reported

separately to the EFDA Leader. A final report shall be prepared by the Task Coordinator and submitted to the EFDA Leader. Each participation Association will have to report in one subsection on the degree to which the deliverables of their Task have been achieved, and shall include a breakdown of expenditure. The Task Coordinator will collect the individual subsections into the final report for Priority Support activities addressing the milestones.

Written report



MobilityMobility

In the frame of TAs, exchange of scientists between the involved Associations is planned covering:

- participation in joint experimental campaigns and modelling efforts - attendance to the SEWG and TF meetings.

For all these exchanges, the use of the mobility agreement is foreseen

The mobility figures given in the Task Agreement are indicative only

The forecast of expenditures must be included in the mobility plan of each Association regularly approved by the Commission services

The use of mobility is within the ceiling of Association

Ceilings on daily allowance, rules for transport reimbursement (>28days) applies.

Payment made through call for funds after approval of the accounts of the Associate
