  Spectroscopy beamlines at the ESRF are equipped with a generic model of double crystal monochromator, originally acquired in the 1990's. After over 15 years of continuous service, their conception, although pioneering 20 years ago, can no longer meet the challenge of present and future scientific goals in terms of position and angular stability, thermal stability, cooling system, vibration, control and feedback, particularly in view of the ESRF - EBS upgrade. Considering the above issues, a feasibility phase was launched to develop a prototype DCM dedicated to future spectroscopy applications at the ESRF. Specifications : derived from expected performance of the EBS upgrade and scientific objectives - are extremely challenging, especially in terms of mechanical and thermal stability and impose the adoption of several innovative design strategies. The prototype is currently in the assembly phase and tests of the complete system are planned before the end of 2018. An overview of the DCM prototype project will be given, including specifications, major design options implemented and various validated concepts. Current project status and first test results will also be presented.
