...effective alternative. In this type of solar cells crystal defects and impurities are pres ent; crystal defects are introduced during crystallization, and impurities are introduced from the feedstock, the crucibles or the coating. The impurities and defects interact to reduce the solar cell efficiency. Therefore...

Nepal, and Northern Ireland), asking about ordinary citizens’ thoughts and feelings about different peacebuilding strategies. Focusing on the interplay between institutions, violent conflict and individual attitudes, the project aims to offer insight into the microdynamics of violent conflict, and, in...
The energy grid is changing, and in the coming years, large sums will be invested to fully electrify society. System grounding will be a key factor in many of the decisions related to fault management, component sizing, voltage quality, and the resulting socioeconomic impact. Background Historically...
...use cases, 3D imaging is becoming a mainstream technique suitable for both inspection, navigation and robotic interaction. However, for space-based applications, only very few 3D-cameras are available and none of these provide the high-resolution 3D data required for robotic interaction. In recent years...

SINTEF will contribute a new sensor suite and algorithms for detecting and tracking powerlines and pylons that will form the basis for onboard...
...high temperature level for the heat distribution, causing significant heat losses, and rendering utilization of above-mentioned low-temperature surplus heat sources difficult. In order to reduce these distribution losses, and to enable utilization of surplus heat sources in an efficient manner, it is necessary...
The red algae Dulse is demanded for use in food and in this project we will adjust cultivation methods for this nutritious and tasty seaweed species. There is a growing interest for using seaweed in food in Norway and among several possible food-algae the dulse (Palmaria palmata) is especially attractive...

Batteries Europe is created to provide the community with a forum to spearhead Research and Innovation (R&I) actions. Its main goal is to accelerate the establishment of a globally...
...how to build a cost-efficient grid in the North and Baltic Seas. As such, it is a compelling milestone in the development of a secure, interconnected European power system, able to integrate increasing amounts of renewable energy. The need for cleaner and safer energy supplies to counter climate change...
...manufactures 12 - 40.5 kV compact, gas insulated switchgears for the world market. Sulphur hexafluoride (SF6) gas is used as the electrical insulation- and current interruption medium. However, since SF6 is an extremely strong "greenhouse gas", restrictions on its use are anticipated. Short-circuit current...

Strengthen research training and education within sustainability transitions research, through courses and/or summer schools. This will be based on existing collaboration between the partners (e.g., FME NTRANS, INTRANSIT)...
HiPerNav will train early stage researchers (biomedical engineers and medical doctors) to become international leading experts in key areas of expertise through a novel coordinated plan of individual research projects addressing specific bottlenecks in soft tissue navigation for improved treatment of...
...are responsible for one fifth of the greenhouse gasses from the building and construction industry. On the other hand, imagine a road construction project where each machine always knows where the others are, what they are doing and what is the optimal way to organize the work. To realize this, we need...
...antibiotics and this figure increases every year due to excessive drug intake. The main objective of COBIOPHAD project is the development of an integrated biophotonic device based on compact disc technology to address the most prevalent drug allergies The system will be developed in a low cost and rapid point-of-care...
