Transformative, adaptive, responsive and engaging Environment

CenBio addresses the entire value chains of virgin biomass and biodegradable waste fractions, including their production, harvesting and transportation, the conversion to heat and power, and the upgrade of residues to valuable products.

SINTEF has performed two independent surveys of gambling habits and problems in the Norwegian population. One survey was performed before and one after the ban on slot machines came into force. In spite of the ban, no significant change was found in...

More flexible operation of hydropower systems could lead to more frequent and rapid changes in water flow.

”Establish fundamental competence on new and pioneering concepts for realizing power electronic converters for deepwater applications. The developed know-how will give Norwegian vendors and oil companies new possibilities for realizing future...

The proposed Centre will contribute to increasing the cost-competitiveness of the PV industry in general, thus enabling the Norwegian PV industry to further improve its strong global position. In order to achieve world-class research and innovation...

Tinfos power plant; hydropower reservoirs in Norway represent a great potential for a future European power system.

Young people affected by cancer are dependent on help and follow-up from various health and welfare services over a long periode of time, both during and after cancer treatment. This group is particularly vulnerable as they are often in a phase of...

GOVREP will produce policy recommendations for sustainable electricity production.

More salmon can grow up with small adaptions in hydro power technology and operation.

NextGenRob aims to develop the next generation robotic technology for Norwegian industry. The project spans five years, is led by SINTEF ICT and has the following partners: Statoil, Norsk Hydro, Tronrud Engineering, Glen Dimplex Nordic, Scandinavian...

NEXTGENROB is a 5-year research program aiming to develop new competence and knowledge in next-generation robotics for Norwegian industry. The project is led by SINTEF ICT and is funded with support from the Research Council of Norway and from the...

NO_x is a generic term for nitrogen oxides (NO and NO₂) formed in combustion processes. The main contribution is emitted from shipping and road traffic, but also from land-based industries such as Ferroalloy industry. The ferrosilicon industry is in...

Environmental monitoring is a key element in sustainable exploitation of marine resources. The environment is under pressure from e.g. shipping and offshore oil and gas activities, and there is a large need for improved methods for monitoring and...

Aquaculture is still facing a number of bottlenecks. To further develop aquaculture, the major bottlenecks need to be systematically removed. At the production level, unpredictable larval survival and larval/juvenile quality and robustness are major...

To optimize hydrocarbon reservoir recovery, understanding and predicting flow and transport processes is crucial. Geo-cellular models, representing complex rock formations, often contain millions of cells, requiring hours for simulation. To expedite...

Early Recognition, Monitoring and Integrated Management of Emerging, New Technology Related, Risks The project deals with management of emerging (new technology related) risks, e.g. related to nanotechnology. The goal has been to develop an agreed...
