The capability to determine the FCC-ee centre-of-mass energies (ECM) at the ppm level using resonant depolarization of the beams is essential for the Z line shape measurements, the W mass and the possible observation of the Higgs boson s-channel production. A first analysis (Blondel A et al Polarization and centre-of-mass energy calibration at FCC-ee. demonstrated the feasibility of this programme, conditional to careful preparation and a number of further developments. The existing simulation codes must be unified; the analysis and design of the instrumentation must be developed; and a detailed planning must be developed for the simultaneous and coordinated operation of the accelerator, of the continuous polarization and depolarization measurements, and of the beam monitoring devices, ensuring a precise extrapolation from beam energies to centre-of-mass energy and energy spread.
