HYPER Liquefied hydrogen production from surplus wind/hydro power and fossil sources in Norway Norway is an exporter of large volumes of fossil energy. Almost tenfold the amount of energy is exported as natural gas compared to the domestic hydropower generation. With the exception of years with precipitation...
As salmon farm sites are moved further offshore and to more exposed locations, working conditions are increasingly challenging. Farmers therefore aim to automate certain operations to facilitate safer working conditions. Automation and autonomous unmanned underwater vehicles (UUVs) are furthermore key...
Route Planning (ORP) aims to develop optimization-based algorithms and tools to support a smoother, future-oriented train timetabling process. The ORP Prototype is the first phase of this ambitious project, where a prototype is developed and tested in collaboration with Bane NOR. SINTEF is developing in...

Kongsberg Digital, BKK Nett, NTE Nett, Statnett, Microsoft, SINTEF, and eSmart Systems are collaborating on the development of information systems for modern grid operations. Results: Kognitwin® Grid’s digital grid model ...
SOLVit - is an eight-year research and development program funded by Gasnova and the Norwegian industrial company Aker Clean Carbon - who is also coordinator. SINTEF and NTNU are key partners to the company Aker Clean Carbon, which has worked actively with the development of new technology for CO2 capture...
...100 kW range, for combined heat and power (CHP) applications in commercial and industrial buildings. Mass-market production of fuel cells will be a strong factor in reducing first costs. In this respect, joining the forces of two non-competing sectors (automotive and stationary) will bring benefits...
...for the production of high quality aluminum components for use in vehicles and aircrafts. This will make the production process cheaper. Norwegian forging companies have thus the opportunity to increase their market share and open new markets for aluminum forgings. In addition, the foundries have the...
...be used for individual and group, as well as system-oriented measures. SINTEF has been commissioned for The Norwegian Labour and Welfare Administration conducted an evaluation of the scheme of arrangement grants. The project is funded by the NAV program FARVE funds for work and welfare. The evaluation...
Development of innovative and integrated cooling and heating concepts onboard cruise ships Until the COVID-19 pandemic hit the world, the cruise industry was prospering in an international and steadily growing market. In the summer of 2019, about 850 000 cruise tourists visited Norway, spending more...
...subsea industry is constantly pushing towards reduced costs and increased safety in subsea inspection, maintenance and repair operations. Therefore we have established the SEAVENTION project: Autonomous subsea intervention - empowered by people and AI. In the SEAVENTION (Autonomous subSEA interVENTION)...
Towards Hydrogen and Electricity Production with Carbon Dioxide Capture and Storage The project worked to prepare the ground for large-scale European facilities producing hydrogen and electricity from fossil fuels with CO2 capture and permanent storage. DYNAMIS investigated viable routes to large-scale...
...its diffuse emissions and greenhouse gas footprint in order to improve the plant working environment, meet increasingly strict governmental regulations and fulfil climate ambitions. Traditionally, the industrial focus regarding energy and environmental issues has been on design and operation of the furnaces...
...diverse datasets and leveraging the synergistic effects of combined data, while also fostering opportunities for data providers to monetise their contributions. Its primary goal is to equip farmers with actionable insights and decision support tools to optimise agricultural practices and resource management...
Obesity and fatty liver disease are increasing in the population. There are no cost-effective and accurate ways to measure the amount of fat in the liver. In this project, we develop and test an ultrasound method to estimate liver fat. Fatty liver disease that is not due to excessive alcohol consumption...
The objective of the BreathSense project is to create an innovative clinical workflow and a portable breath diagnostics device that can provide real-time, in-home monitoring of patients, allowing for the early prediction of exacerbations in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). People dealing...
...constantly growing and along with it the amount of waste products produced increases. Although salmon aquaculture is an efficient food production method compared to agricultural animal production, today more than half of the feed input is lost to the environment. Uneaten feed and fish faeces are by no...
AQUAEXCEL2020 aims to offer services tailored to the needs of the European aquaculture community and support and conduct world-class aquaculture research. Introduction AQUAEXCEL2020, a Horizon 2020 research infrastructure project, aims to support the sustainable growth of the aquaculture sector in Europe...
Danish seine vessels. Automation will ease the workload, increase productivity and improve the the quality of the fish on board. Automatic bleeding of anesthetized and alive fish on board will both raise the quality of the fish and remove heavy workloads for the fishermen. In addition, we have seen recently...
...to contribute to the holistic and long-term planning of the energy system, in order to meet our climate goals while conserving nature and biodiversity. If we are to prevent global warming, we must reduce our emissions. Emissions reductions from sectors such as industry and transport require increased...
...substructures for 10MW wind turbines and water depths greater than 50m. There is a need for new innovative substructure concepts, including floating platforms, to reduce production, installation and O&M costs for water depths of more than 50m. Objectives: Optimize and qualify to a Technology Readiness...
