The aim is to ensure onboard and onshore competence for low emission, efficient and safe operation of Wind-Assisted Propulsion System (WAPS) ships, to enable industry to invest and upscale WAPS. Harnessing the available wind energy requires skilled seafarers that understand the working principles of...
...seafood products are globally traded products, encompassing varying degrees of social and economic dependency between producing and consuming countries and regions. In times of global shocks affecting production and markets, the Norwegian seafood industry may therefore be vulnerable. The primary objective...
...typology, method and roadmap for HUman-MAchine NEtworks Increasingly, activities in work and social life are conducted within human-machine networks, where collaboration involves many different actors; governments and organisations, individuals and machines such as smart devices, sensors and computing infrastructure...
Fluid Dynamics for the Design of Energy Efficient and Environment Friendly Marine Propulsors. Six industrial companies in Norway, delivering propulsion systems, have joined forces with two research partners to develop the next generation propulsion design and analysis tool for industrial use. This tool incorporates...
...of natural gas and hydrogen with concentrations up to 100% H2. New combustion technology The combustion technology has been successfully validated at TRL5 (early 2021) retrofitted on the combustion system of a 13 MWe industrial gas turbine (NovaLT12). Besides ensuring low emissions and high efficiency...
SMARTCHAIN will develop approaches and tools for sustainable utilisation, production planning, logistics optimisation, and traceability to facilitate transfer of bio-resources from catch/production throughout the value chain of fisheries and aquaculture products. The SMARTCHAIN project seeks to bring...
GrateCFD Biomass to energy (BtE) and waste to energy (WtE) plants in Norway need to comply with stricter emission limits and/or adjust to tighter profit margins, and EU have implemented a further reduction of emission limits from medium (scale) combustion plants. Tighter profit margins mean that poorer/cheaper...
The project aims to develop and demonstrate methods for robust online sampling, modelling and prediction of heavy metal emissions associated with dust from the aluminium industry. The aluminium producers Alcoa and Hydro are working towards zero emissions and thereby increasing sustainability by 2050...
...health, and the effective functioning of market forces in the food sector. The EU co-funded project WATSON aims to reduce the risk and frequency of this type of fraud in the European market. WATSON provides a methodological framework combined with a set of tools and systems that can detect and prevent...
...on demonstrating and verifying a concept for enabling large-scale and hybrid flexible resources. The overarching idea of the project is that current technology and technical requirements for large-scale flexible resources—such as backup generators, electric boilers, batteries, and other hybrid resources—allow...
Partnership is driving a transformation, creating and regenerating neighbourhoods that are inclusive, energy-efficient, and environmentally sustainable, while ensuring affordability remains at the core. Led by Housing Europe in collaboration with five key partners and co-funded by the European Union, the initiative...
...scale stationary Combined Heat and Power (µ-CHP) generation is foreseen as a significant future market for fuel cells. Among the fuel cell types, the Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell (PEMFC) technology is by far dominating the small scale stationary demonstration and field trials (~90%). The PEMFC...
...sustainable development of local communities by combining existing and new content in museums with the help of groundbreaking technological solutions. GaiaVesterålen is an environmental and history project where innovation, research and technological development is in front. In a new container museum...
Interdisciplinary Education and Research Platform in Cold-Chain of Fish: From Norway to Japan Main objective is to establish an internationally recognized interdisciplinary education and research platform for students and young researchers in the area of cold-chain of fish and seafood between Norway and Japan that can...
Supporting the Mission Ocean Lighthouse in the Baltic and North Sea basins BlueMissionBanos will inspire, engage and support all relevant stakeholders across the BANOS area to take the necessary actions to make the Blue Economy carbon-neutral and circular by 2030. We will establish an EU-wide Alliance...
...through external control of melt stirring and thus transport of oxygen by periodically variation of the crystal and/or crucible rotation. The basic rationale is that an optimal stirring in the melt can be achieved by changing the rotation rate of the crucible and/or crystal. Improvements in material performance...
...optimize production, improve reservoir management and maximise field recovery. The well environment is harsh and can limit the operative life of conventional electronic down-hole gauges. In recent years fibre optic based measurement systems have been developed and well deployments have proven this technology...
BDT to reach for excellence and constantly improve their performance, by measuring their technology development activity against parameters of high business relevance. DataBench will investigate existing Big Data benchmarking tools and projects, identify the main gaps and provide a robust set of metrics...
...develop better and more cost-effective components for fuel cell systems, making them more efficient and reliable for heavy-duty vehicles and other mobility sectors. Hydrogen-powered fuel cells have the potential to revolutionize the heavy-duty mobility sector such as road, maritime, railway, and aviation...
...technology and in particular 5G in defence and peacekeeping operations. Communication solutions used by the Armed Forces today are in many ways less advanced, have lower performance and are less user-friendly than civilian 5G technology. It is therefore a stated goal that the Armed Forces in Norway and in Europe...
