WP2 Future Scenario and Decision Dashboard This work package will develop a future vision for new sustainable aquaculture production systems using Fuzzy Cognitive Mapping and R through conducting workshops with stakeholders. In doing so, we assess to what degree different affected sectors perceive future...

WP4 Societal Acceptance and Willingness to Pay This WP will undertake experimental panel surveys to assess societies willingness to pay for certain products (i.e. price premiums and certifications). The work will not start until 2022, however dialogue with our industry partners will be continuous throughout...

Purpose: To present current trends in industrial practices and emerging research developments in production control To create synergies between researchers and industrial participants To discuss needs of industrial applications and future trends in research activities PROGRAM Intro Welcome by Prof...

...modelling and optimization. The workshop was a result of a collaboration between NTNU, CINELDI and our international research partners Sandia National Labs and UC Davis. The purpose of the workshop was three-fold: To provide an opportunity for Pyomo developers and users within energy systems and grid modelling...

...methodologies and tools needed for the optimal planning and asset management of the future robust, flexible and intelligent distribution system. The expected impact is a more efficient grid through better utilization of existing and new infrastructure, more target-oriented investments, and better control...

Ship design and integration This WP will specify the two ship types to be used as case examples in the project. The basic idea is to cover one relatively small boat operating on short distances near shore, e.g. a river or canal crossing, and one larger craft for distances in covered water and up to a few...

Planning and deployment of infrastructure in a cost-efficient way is challenging due to the multiplicity of sectors involved, spatial and temporal distribution and uncertainties in future markets. SP4 will facilitate development of a viable Norwegian H₂ infrastructure (at the national, regional and cluster...

...early-phase cost estimation and techno-economic analysis and optimization for research partners and industry. SINTEF has strong expertise in the field of techno-economic analysis and optimization – a discipline that combines technology and economics, placing it within a broader economic and societal context. We...

...food security, and cross-sectoral planning. Only 3.5 per cent of Norway’s land area is suitable for food production, and this land is under pressure from development, overgrowth, and competing commercial interests. At the same time, farmland protection is crucial for national security and sustainable development...
