The objective of the PQM project was to develop a new concept for power quality and reliability measurement and management. This should be done by developing and evaluating new and existing methods for measuring and handling large amounts of power...
The project was targeted towards industrial value creation. The project was timely since the international development was at its very beginning and Norwegian offshore and energy industry had a competitive advantage
This project is one of the five N-INNER projects that has received funding when N-INNER launched a call for research proposals 1 March 2007. N-INNER, the Northern European Innovative Energy Research Programme, is a joint programme between the Academy...
The subject of this project is development and qualification of a new concept of power exchange interface between transport vessels, using diesel or gas turbine electric propulsion, and harbour terminals.
Towards Hydrogen and Electricity Production with Carbon Dioxide Capture and Storage
We are leader of NCE Raufoss, the national competence centre for lightweight materials and automated production in Norway. The ambition is to be Norway's center for all manufacturing industry. NCE stands for Norwegian Centre of Expertise and is a...
Asset management is a relatively new concept for electricity distribution companies in Norway. The concept is gaining momentum as a way to cope maintenance and renewal of a generally aging infrastructure under increasing requirements from various...
The main objective was to develop a cost-effective maintenance system for wind farms, and to establish a foundation for making the right decisions in terms of reliability, operation and maintenance when new wind farms are to be specified. Knowledge...
This report demonstrates analyses and descriptive presentations of the efforts in man-labour years within municipal psychiatric health work during the years 2007 to 2012. In 2012, 11 995 total man-labour years within municipal psychiatric health work...
Innovative demonstrations for the next generation of biomass and waste combustion plants for energy recovery and renewable electricity production.
The project had as its overall objective to increase the activity of students with asthma by developing a suitable curriculum for physical education lessons at school.
The FP6 project CO2ReMoVe aims at creating a scientifically based reference for the monitoring and verification of CO2 geological storage. Through extensive R&D into monitoring, measurements and verification on multiple storage sites, CO2ReMoVE wants...
The purpose of the project is to develop a prototype multiscale mixed finite-element pressure solver in the ECLIPSE FrontSim streamline reservoir simulation software. FrontSim is a three-phase, 3D simulator that models multiphase flow of fluids along...
The main objective of this project was to provide decision support for introduction of Hydrogen as energy carrier in the Norwegian energy system.
The project was designed chiefly to develop strategies aimed at integrating energy from renewable sources into European power grids as cheaply as possible.
Temperatures can be determined without touching the object under investigation by measuring the heat it radiates (pyrometry). However, accurate temperature determination requires knowledge about the object emissivity. For aluminium, it is very...
Sorting garbage for recycling saves resources, reduces environmental pollution and slows the build-up of landfills. Infrared light is the key to a sorting machine for drink cartons and plastic bottles developed by SINTEF.
The project aimed at developing novel overall solutions to minimise consequences and costs related to major challenges for the future distribution networks:
