This report provides an assessment of the impacts of the current policy and regulatory framework upon efficient energy usage, management of increased energy surpluses, storage and exchanges in and between buildings in Norway. There is currently a reinforced focus and priority towards energy...

Electricity generation from large offshore wind farms is being gradually accepted as a feasible solution to meet the rapid increase in energy demands. However, although the technology is progressing fast, a major drawback with offshore wind energy is the fact that offshore wind farm installations...

The authors have reviewed sources of information relevant to the use of air bubbles to develop new technology for combating oil spills at sea, including an overview of the status of oil spill response in Norwegian waters. The zooplankton 'Bubble trawl' flotation concept being developed by SINTEF...

A review is performed on the description of evironmental conditions in Norwegian coastal areas in relation to Large Floating Coastal Structures and the planning of long floating bridges across fjords. First, an outline of some geographic location of possible crossing sites in various fjords is...

Surimi processing generates rest raw materials (RRM) including viscera, skin, filleting frame, bone and wash water, which potentially could be used in preparation of valuable ingredients like marine proteins and oil, protein hydrolysate, and gelatine for food or feed application. The report gives...

This report presents results obtained in the CageReporter project regarding the development of a 3D vision system to be used for data capture in fish cages. The developed system enables to obtain high-quality data with the overall goal to identify fish conditions and perform cage inspections during...

This report is a part of WP1 in the Revalue project and it presents the findings from research on energy-efficient and environment-friendly refrigeration system for Surimi processing and storage in warm ambient temperatures. During 2017-18, India exported about $17.6 million worth of surimi and it...

This report presents the carbon footprint and area use of Norwegian farmed salmon that is fed five different diets. It also compares the carbon footprint and occupation of agricultural land of Norwegian farmed salmon from 2010 with Swedish pig and chicken. All results are calculated according to LCA...
