FME ZeMe developes the fundamental knowledge and technologies needed by the Norwegian metallurgical industry to become climate neutral by 2050.

gigaCCS will create competitive CCS technologies, increase value, and reduce risk for industry and society through strategic competence and capacity building, supporting emissions reduction targets.

The project aims to increase the capacity of Norway's power grid by optimizing the utilization of existing cables through dynamic capacity calculations and real-time monitoring.

INFINIFISH will create innovations to monitor and mitigate the impacts of fishing on the climate and enable fisheries to adapt to the consequences of climate change.

InterPlay aims 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.

Land use and planning for infrastructure and nature

A collaborative forum gathering various stakeholders to explore key topics in the field of smart buildings and publish actionable insights to help tackle challenges in this industry.

OptiFLEX will investigate the interaction between very large rotors (>20MW), towers and the floater supporting them, to precisely understand vibrations, mitigate fatigue and avoid failure.

RenewHydro aims to develop knowledge and solutions that enable flexible hydropower to support the realization of energy transition and achieve national energy, climate, and environmental goals.

More efficient rail mobility via innovative AI-based methods, by enabling optimized planning of rail replacement services and cost-effective infrastructure investment decisions.

Norsonic AS, SINTEF and NINA are launching a new project aimed at advancing AI’s ability to understand and recognize of sound. The project is called ROaR (Robust Acoustic Recognition) and is funded by Norsonic AS and the Research Council of Norway.

SecurEL facilitates a secure, resilient, and sustainable electricity distribution grid that ensures both the security of electricity supply and a path to a net-zero emissions society.

Selective breeding has proven a promising tool to increase the fecundity in copepods. In SEQOP, SINTEF, NOFIMA and CFEED will assess if selectively bred lines of Acartia tonsa also display genetic alterations.

SocialFeed will develop a firm foundation on social sustainability assessment specifically adapted to the Norwegian agri- and aquafeed sectors and evaluate the sector’s net social footprint.
