Browse the diverse projects exploring Sustainable Energy hosted at the Copernicus Institute of Sustainable Development
Ongoing projects
JUSTNEXUS (2024-2028) | JUSTNEXUS fundamentally rethinks mobility and investigates how just sustainability transitions can be fostered at the intersection of mobility, energy and housing. More. |
---|---|
MM&EMs (2023-2027) | This project takes an inter- and transdisciplinary approach to better understand both resistance and acceptance of wind energy deployment. More. |
PUSH-IT (2023-2027) | The Piloting Underground Seasonal Heat Storage In geothermal reservoirs (PUSH-IT) project is a Horizon Europe consortium that aims to develop large-scale heat storage solutions to make solar and geothermal heating available all year round. More. |
Three missions with one stone: the road towards circular green hydrogen production (2023-2027) | This interdisciplinary project aims to develop a cradle-to-cradle electrolyzer system for green hydrogen production, integrating material and chemical engineering sciences with innovation systems and circular economy principles. More. |
African Urban Futures (2022-) | This project aims to expand imaginaries about the possible futures for African cities to better achieve sustainability and justice outcomes, using infrastructure as an entry point. More. |
REPAIR (2022-2026) | This project aims to develop and implement technologies that remove non-CO₂ greenhouse gases from the atmosphere and the agricultural sector. Removal of the potent non-CO₂ greenhouse gases, methane (CH₄) and nitrous oxide (N₂O) can potentially mitigate global warming in the coming decades. More. |
GAIM (2022-2026) | This project aims to empower long-term consumers and communities in energy applications through inclusive game design, artificial intelligence and system modelling. More. |
PICASSO (2021-2025) | This project aims to identify transformation processes needed for achieving a large set of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and key synergies and trade-offs among SDG indicators. More. |
DOSTA | This project examines offshore energy storage options and alternative methods to transport electricity and/or hydrogen to shore and their feasibility for implementation in the Dutch North Sea. More. |
Apt-Bat | Apartment Building Batteries for Energy Management (Apt-Bat) is developing a scalable and affordable solution that can enable upscaling of the use of renewable energy in apartment complexes and the reduction of peak loads on the electricity grid. More. |
CHAPLIN-XL (2020-) | CHAPLIN-XL aims to develop knowledge to upscale the use of bioasphalt in roads so that construction becomes greener, biogenic carbon can be stored, and we become less dependent on oil. More. |
Past projects
REINVENT | REINVENT (Realising Innovations in Transitions for Decarbonisation) developed an evidence-based framework to assess the implications of future EU decarbonisation policy in the medium- (2030) and long-term (2050), focusing on focuses on plastics, steel, paper and food. More. |
