In order to make a hyperbaric arc model we need to know the thermodynamic properties density, enthalpy and specific heat, and the transport coefficients viscosity, thermal conductivity and electrical conductivity of the arc plasma for typical hyperbaric pressure conditions. We are considering plasmas...
...at Norway has been for long time at the forefront in reduction of emissions and electrification of ship propulsion systems. The world's first fully battery-powered electric ferry started regular operation in Norway in 2015, and the Norwegian government plans to require zero emission operation in several...

By studying such operations in controlled experiments in laboratories and in numerical...
...owned by none – or all. These are areas beyond national jurisdiction. This area is today governed very fragmented, and on many different topics, such as fisheries, biodiversity, shipping, and pollution to name a few. During the last decades, however, world leaders have worked to come to an agreement on...

On 12 April, approximately 43 members of the European wave energy community, and associated industries, gathered in Perugia for IMPACT’s second workshop, organised by project partners SINTEF Energy Research and VGA. The "Wave Energy Rig Testing Workshop" focused on how rig testing has significant potential...
...answer In Norse mythology, Asgard (the world of the gods) and Midgard (the world of men – Earth) are connected by a rainbow bridge called Bifrost. Currently, we are in need of our own bridge between two worlds: a world powered by fossil fuels and a world powered by renewable energy. Traditionally, this...

These findings have been published as a paper “Is CCS really so expensive? An analysis of cascading costs and CO₂ emission reduction of...
...pioneering CO2 storage projects. The new portal will enable researchers and engineers to improve their understanding, reduce costs and minimize uncertainties associated with CO2 storage. Trondheim, Norway, 04.02.2020 CO2 capture, transport, and storage (CCS) is a process where CO2 emissions are captured from...
There is virtually no statistical covariation between the occurrence of windy conditions in southern Norway/northern Europe and that for ocean winds in Mid-Norway and further north. According to the authors of this article, this knowledge will increase the commercial value of Norwegian offshore wind...
When we humans hear the word ‘battery’, we use context to distinguish between an energy storage system and an artillery unit. But computer systems think differently. Researchers are now developing a common computer language based on words that are so well defined that they cannot be misunderstood. Illustration...
