Needs towards metrology research
Secure measurementsand reference data
Do/underpinbasic science
Drive innvovation
do you get what you
pay for?
safely below radiation limits?
do constants of nature drift with time?
efficiency?quality control in production?
data quality for policy making
sufficient?
precise enough to be
competitive?
Precise, correct, traceable measurements are needed virtually everywhere

Metrology improves health care e.g. by earlier detection of diseases and patient protection e.g. from radiation, and fosters the competitiveness of related European industries and services.
Healthcare
Energy
Metrology for energy supports the successful implementation of smart electrical grids in Europe or improves efficiency in
traditional power plants with a considerable impact on reducing energy consumption and reduction of emissions.
Environment
Metrology for environment provides improved measurements for better understanding of the Earth’s weather and climate. It makes space-based measurements consistent for comparisons with data from other sources.
EMRP projects addressing Grand Challenges
Current EMRP portfolio: 17 health, nine energyand nine environment projects. Final EMRP Call addresses Energy and Environment

Metrology enables coping with the increasingly high operational speeds of modern electronic equipment in the European electronics industry.
EMRP projects to drive innovation in industry
30 running “industry” metrology projects and
nine “new technologies” metrology projects
Metrology allows embedding nano-objects to improve products such as high strength concrete. For this, mechanical properties of nano-objects are measured such as nanoparticles, nanowires, nanoscale
structures and composite materials.
Metrology supports exploitation of advanced high-pressure technologies in industry, e.g. the application of high pressures in the manufacturing of direct injection fuel systems, which have improved petrol and diesel engine performance.

EMPIR Activities The main activities of EMPIR shall consist of the following joint research and technological development actions:
A scientific-technical programme which supports fundamental scientific metrology laying the basis for all successive steps including applied metrology research and development and metrology related services;
Metrology research into societal challenges focusing on contributions for energy, environment and health;
Research into novel measurement instrumentation aiming at industrial take-up of metrological technologies to stimulate innovation in industry;
Pre-normative and co-normative metrology research and development for priority documentary standards aiming to use the expertise of metrology institutes in Europe to support policy implementation and accelerate innovative products and services to market;
Metrology capacity-building activities on different technological levels aiming to achieve a balanced and integrated metrology system in Europe.
EMPIR Activities (cont.)The main activities shall be carried out by NMI and DI. EMPIR shall encourage and support the participation of other entities. This approach is expected to lead to around 15% of the budget of EMPIR going to those entities.
In addition: Support services to increase exploitation and deployment of metrology
research from on-going projects and to build on knowledge in order to achieve greater socio-economic impacts.
Activities specifically addressing metrology institutes with no or limited scientific capabilities, by supporting them in using other European, national or regional programmes for training and mobility, cross-border cooperation or investment in metrology infrastructure.
Networking activities to promote EMPIR and maximise its impact.
