Swapping batteries for hydrogen gives drones a whole new range
Researchers have built a drone that runs on hydrogen. This technology will enable us to fix power outages faster and replace dangerous helicopter missions with the new drones.
From Deep Tech to Innovation
SINTEF Digital conducts research and innovation in digital technologies and technology-oriented social sciences. Our multi-disciplinary knowledge base is used across all industries and helps our customers exploit and meet the opportunities created by deep tech, digitalization and digital transformation.
In the Research Council's national evaluation of the fields of Mathematics, ICT, and Technology (EVALMIT) in the spring of 2025, we were highlighted as one of the flagship Administrative Units (AUs) in Norway.
Over the years, we have produced success stories and demonstrable impact through our research, as the Research Council's report also points out: "Impact creation is intrinsic to SINTEF Digital's business".
Undeniably, SINTEF Digital is leading nationally in its specific technical areas, research market niche and domains of social responsibility
