Start year 2011 End year 2012 Funding (€) € 25,000 Website NA Summary On the basis of the ICEEF 2010 experience, during ICEEF 2011 further information has been collected in relation to the state of the art of fisheries technology. Most of the material collected has been obtained by exhibitions and conferences. During these visits it has been possible also to promote the website. A rising up of web site contacts has been noticed, mainly because of the interest of people for an opportunity for their activity to find an easy way to share information. Most part of the work has been organized to be shared in three upload. Contemporary a continuous streaming of information from JRC and CNR - ISMAR was maintained. One of the main goal of this second edition of the ICEEF project has been an useful way to share information collected. So CNR - ISMAR has developed an internal web site for a free access to visit reports and other material and services. Furthermore a questionnaire was created to test the point of view of different peopled involved in fisheries sector. Results of the questionnaire could be used to define a profile and to suggest how to improve actions by EU, in order to match needs and interests of fishermen, as well as any other stakeholders.
Information collection for Fuel efficiency in fisheries, with a focus on the following topics: (1) Engines, fuels (incl. biofuels), emissions, reduced environmental impacts; (2) Vessel design and technology including propulsion systems, new hull systems, fishing boat design, auxiliary power; (3) Vessel operation (maintenance of hulls and engines); (4) Use of alternative or renewable Fuel sources (wind, hydrogen fuel cells etc.); (5) Efficient fishing gears (e.g. reduced gear drag), selectivity; (6) Fishing tactics and techniques (e.g. from active to passive techniques, routing optimization etc.); (7) Fuel management systems, Fuel monitoring and control systems, Fuel audits, other Fuel uses onboard (e.g. auxiliary engines); (8) Innovative refrigeration systems; (9) Rules and regulations (to the extent that EU or national rules impact significantly on Fuel consumption by restricting/stimulating energetically suboptimal vessels); (10) Other innovations and techniques.
