Steelanol H2020 Energy project inauguration on 8 December
The EU-funded Steelanol project, first of its kind installation in the European steel industry, will help reduce CO2 emissions in the ArcelorMittal steel plant in Ghent, by using biocatalysts to transform waste gases from carbon-rich blast furnace and from waste biomass into ethanol.
Collecting environmental data for offshore renewables
The FLORA project partners are developing an industrial-scale prototype of an ocean station with renewable energy generation and oceanographic capabilities. The so-called FLORA Ocean Station will gather important data on birds and biodiversity with low environmental impact.
A new hub to foster energy renovation of buildings
Renovation of existing buildings is a significant milestone in the transition to an energy-efficient society. The EU-funded initiative PadovaFIT Expanded helps coordinate house owners on the demand side and businesses, engineers and consultants on the supply side.
District heating networks are highly efficient, but there is room for improvement when it comes to decarbonisation. Through pioneering new technologies in the RELaTED project, EU-funded researchers have opened the door for networks to make more use of renewables and waste heat.
