The overall objective of the POSEIDON project is to prepare the implementation of local value chains based on emethanol as fuel for shipping in the ports of Valencia and Thessaloniki. This will be achieved by connecting local stakeholders and collecting requirements through local Communities of Practice (COP), investigating CO2 valorisation routes, developing and demonstrating innovative solutions including a power-to-e-methanol pilot plant and 2- and 4-stroke engines, evaluating the technical, economic, environmental and social impacts at case study level, drafting roadmaps describing post project activities and making tools and knowledge accessible in an open science manner to remove barriers to implementation and foster the replication and upscaling of e-methanol ecosystems in EU.

The European Green Deal aims to transform the EU into a modern, resource-efficient and competitive economy with zero net greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. To achieve more efficient, competitive and cost-effective energy systems and devices, RISEnergy fosters a European ecosystem of industry, research organizations and funding agencies aimed at developing novel energy technologies and concepts. RISEnergy brings together a consortium of 69 beneficiaries from 23 countries: ERIC institutions, technology institutes, universities and industrial partners, to jointly improve the economic performance of technologies. Members of the European Energy Research Alliance are establishing the core European ecosystem. The main objectives of RISEnergy are: 1.) enable research and innovation to increase energy efficiency and reduce the cost of energy technologies to foster wider use of renewables into energy systems through proactive innovation management having single entry point with tailor-made access roads for academics, industry, and SMEs, and advising RI providers, all acces Users, and policy makers on LCA, ICT development and networking issues; 2.) provide efficient transnational access (TNA) to facilities to support renewable energy technologies and systems: Provide more than 2,500 days of access to major European and international world-leading analytical facilities; 3.) reach out to all stakeholders performing research along the value chain, from materials and technology development to applications in the eight most relevant fields of PV, CSP/STE , hydrogen, biofuels, offshore wind, ocean energy, integrated grids, and energy storage, research infrastructure providers and policy makers; 4.) provide comprehensive services of unprecedented quality: new cross-RI services, a single entry point, tailor-made access roads for academia industry, and SMEs with a particular focus on scientists from research fields in which the use of research infrastructures is not yet established.

Die rasante Steigerung des weltweiten Energiebedarfs und ein breiter Energiemix mit wachsenden Anteilen an erneuerbaren Energien stellen zunehmend höhere Anforderungen an die Energieinfrastruktur. Benötigt werden flexible Lösungen, die konventionelle und regenerative Systeme sinnvoll miteinander verbinden. Mit icefuel® wurde ein System für Energiespeicherung, -transport und –wandlung entwickelt, das Energieüberschüsse – vor allem aus erneuerbaren Energien - abpuffert und einen Ausgleich zwischen Stromerzeugung und -verbrauch schaffen kann. 

Das EU-Projekt F3Factory hatte zum Ziel die Entwicklung effizienter und nachhaltiger Prozesse in der Chemieindustrie Effizienz sowie Flexibilität zu steigern: Die Fabrik der Zukunft ist effektiver, flexibler und schont vor allem die Ressourcen wesentlich besser als heutige Standards.

Das Projekt zielte auf die effiziente Herstellung von Kraftstoffen und Chemikalien (CH4, Methanol, DME, H2, FT, SNG, Bioethanol der zweiten Generation, Feinchemikalien) für den Einsatz bei der Umwandlung von Biomasse im kleinen Maßstab ab. IMVT koordinierte das Gesamtprojekt.
