The ZEESA project build knowledge on how to design and operate renewable thermal-electrical integrated energy systems in the Arctic. These systems should be energy- and cost-efficient at same time as they ensure a high security of supply for arctic...
TRINEFLEX is a toolkit for Energy Intensive Industries: a service managing the digital aspects and the flexibility and sustainability transition of industrial processes.
The ultimate solution to the climate change is the total replacement of fossil fuels, not only as energy vectors but also as the primary carbon source for most of the material goods society needs.
Framework for systematic and integrated techno-economic and life-cycle assessments to support informed decision-making for sustainable development.
Within the EU, up to one third of energy for industrial thermal processes is lost through waste heat. The potential power generation from this resource through full use of ORC technology would represent around 7,6 million tons of CO2 equivalent saved...
The REVEAL project will develop a new technical solution for storing large amounts of energy with an energy storage density of more than 15 MWh/m3 at low cost to produce heat and electricity in winter.
Globally, the food chain is estimated to account for 33% of the total GHG emissions. Reduction of these emissions will require advanced technology, innovation and research. In this project, we will address these challenges we will suggest practical...
The LEAn project will develop catalytic coatings based on affordable and readily available components, which in addition reduce the metal industry's energy needs.
The CORE project aims at developing cost-efficient polymer-based conductive coatings that will prevent corrosion of metallic bipolar plates and increase the lifetime of PEM fuel cells and electrolysers.
PRESAV will develop various predictive control strategies for active heat storage accounting for electricity price, district heating price, weather forecast (especially solar irradiance and outdoor temperature) and local heat demand in buildings with...
Compareit addresses how new production systems should be regulated, administered, and where they could be best located, which are highly relevant questions for a sustainable development of the industry that safeguards other societal interests and...
The goal of Allotherm is to discover and realize new alloy systems with superior thermoelectric (TE) properties to dramatically enhance TE waste heat harvesting.
BioSynGas aims at improving many aspects of biogas production plants in Norway. Biogas plants face numerous challenges most of them are related to the so called digestate, a by-product that should be exploited as it contains important nutrients that...
Norway is 2.4 % circular (2020) so there is substantial room for improvement. Increasing circularity will require a complete re-organisation of our society bringing challenges but also opportunities.
Energy-efficient climate control of a greenhouse for increased productivity
Process heating accounts for nearly 50% of the final energy consumption in the industry. A large portion of this is currently covered by fossil fuel, which leads to significant GHG emissions.
The aim of Nordic Energy Outlooks is to: “Strengthen Nordic research competence and cooperation in the field of energy systems analysis, by building on existing national research programs” [Nordic Energy Research]
With typical thermal efficiency of 70-80 % at nominal load, modern wood stoves often produce more heat than actually required, especially in well-insulated, low-energy buildings and passive houses. At the end of the combustion, the heat release...
