Floating wind power at sea

SeaTwirl is looking to become the market leader in marine wind power. The company’s proprietary wind turbine, which rotates like a floating carousel on the surface of the ocean, has already garnered a great deal of attention. In p…

Icy winds will test tomorrow’s wind turbines

Northern Sweden is home to vast, uninhabited areas with energy-rich winds; however, the technology required to handle the extreme cold and icy winds is as yet untested. The Uljabuouda Cold Climate Test Centre gives us that ab…

How Sweden can meet increasing electricity demand

Sweden needs to increase its electricity production significantly by 2050 to secure the electrification of society and industry. However, in addition to increasing production, improved efficiency, better decision-making and a will…

Reduced electricity production when it’s most windy – for more wind power

By using our electricity grids smarter, we can reduce the environmental impact and achieve more production of renewable electricity faster. The key is more flexibility, such as producing less electricity when it is windiest.

Towards more flexibility in future electricity markets

Local electricity markets where you get paid to be flexible is one way of contributing to solving the energy challenges of the future.

Hydrogen – the key to a climate-neutral Sweden

Hydrogen is unique as it is such a pure product. It leaves no residues, no carbon dioxide, no carbon atoms. This is one of the reasons why hydrogen is playing a key role in the transition to a climate-neutral Sweden.

Increased competitiveness through sustainable transition

Help businesses to renew themselves. Accelerate the transition. Get the public sector to partner with business to resolve common societal challenges within climate and environment, digitalisation or healthcare. Internationally com…

Is flexible electricity use possible for everyone?

Energy poverty has been an unknown concept in Sweden for many years, but now this is unfortunately relevant once more. Jenny von Platten, researcher at RISE, has investigated whether, and how, flexible electricity use can help the…

A battery revolution may already be underway

Energy storage in batteries will become increasingly important as the world uses more energy from renewable sources. However, to achieve this we will need cheaper batteries. A RISE project has demonstrated that a new method may be…

Combining electrification and biofuel for an effective transition

In order to meet the climate goals, an array of fossil fuel products need to be phased out and replaced with renewable ones. But since the availability of these is limited, it is important to use the resources as intelligently as …

Old tyres becomes fuel for cars

Researchers at RISE are investigating the possibility of manufacturing fuel from old tyres. So far, results are looking promising and, thanks to this process, it may be possible to reduce both waste and the use of fossil resources…

Future airports can become energy hubs

Aircraft powered by electric motors will require electrified airports. And this may not only mean that they must produce their own green electricity, but also have the ability to store it. With this in mind, we must make progress …
