Leading up to the ISEE-conference in Oslo, June 24-27. 2025...

In response to the request from the Parliament (Stortinget), the Norwegian Environmental Agency (Miljødirektoratet) proposed 3 July a regulation to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions from offshore vessels working on the Norwegian Continental Shelf. It shall also stimulate development of zero...

Model-scale testing of floating wind turbine substructures is an integral part of design verification. Yet, both the test-facility and Froude-scales used, raise questions over the suitability of the hydrodynamic coefficients obtained. In this study, experimental measurements from towing tank tests...

This paper describes challenges and possibilities related to operation and control of hybrid AC/DC power transmission grids. The aim is to discuss topics that transmission system operators and regulators must assess in order to develop technical standards, grid codes, market regulations and...

This report focuses on geomagnetically induced currents (GIC) that can be induced in long subsea power cables. Literature indicates that the water depth itself, in which the cable will be laid, will not contribute to an attenuation of the geoelectric field for those water depths relevant for the...

Many studies have evaluated biomass behavior in a gasification process. Similar studies with torrefied biomass are needed to evaluate the improvements in biomass properties with torrefaction. This forms the basis of this study. A two-stage biomass gasification model is presented by using Aspen Plus...
