Chief Scientist at SINTEF and director of the FME NorthWind research centre. With 10 gigawatts of installed offshore wind, the technology can become competitive with other energy sources. – The first offshore wind farm was built in Denmark in 1996, and since then, interest and development in offshore...
...station. Stock photo: Shutterstock Standard More and more things in our lives are being ‘electrified’, not least in the transport sector. This puts local power grid capacity under strain. Expanding the grid to relieve the system is expensive and takes time. And besides, the bill always ends up being sent...

SINTEF is to lead the EU’s latest research project on CO2 capture in coal- and gas-fired power stations. The project involves 14 partners from eight different countries, and has a total budget of more than twice the Norwegian parliament’s annual funding for research of this sort. The EU’s DECARBit...

Our group contributed with one presentation (Antonio) and two posters (Dag and Lise). There was also a group from the RCN project HIPP project attending. So, in total we were 7 happy people from SINTEF, NTNU and UiO visiting for welding, modelling and hydrogen related research. We also met with our collaborating...
OCEANOR with Norwegian universities, research institutes and Statoil. The buoy accurately measures the speed and direction of wind across the diameter of wind turbine rotors, whilst sensors provide oceanographic parameters such as ocean waves and current profiles. Find out more. ...
SINTEF is a research institute without teaching activities by itself. Instead, we supervise master and PhD students. This not only allows us to explore new research ideas but is also central in our efforts to make open-source reservoir simulation tools. Streamline simulation is a complementary technology...
