Together with my colleagues Peter Köllensperger and Hanna Gautun, I run the University’s FEATURE coordinating activity in nanoscience, “NTNU Nano”. And it is our job to ensure researchers at NTNU have access to the support articles 11 they need to carry out world-leading research in nanoscience, nanotechnology and functional materials. The aim of this brochure is to provide a brief overview of nano- related activities at NTNU, and to point you in the direction of facilities and services that can assist with your research. In the following pages, you will read about some of the nano- related highlights of the past year, find short descriptions of the exceptional experimental facilities that are available for your use, and learn about the various initiatives that we have introduced to help raise the quality and visibility of nanoscience at NTNU. We are particularly excited to be launching our new Impact Fund, which provides small-scale funding for activities that will raise the impact of nanoscience at NTNU – be sure to check out the details on the next page.

MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD A truly adventurous year for CCS in the sense that the disappointments have been queuing up for deployment at larger scale. Key question arise like; how did we end up here, why is there a loss of interest in climate change in general, and where are the bold investments which seemed likely just some years ago. Personally, I think this started at the Copenhagen COP15, why should we or I as an individual care about climate change when our global leaders cannot agree on measures? Obviously, it cannot be that important then.

  • Forskningsmelding Eng Ny.Pdf
    This Research and Innovation Report has been produced in connection with the celebration of SINTEF’s sixtieth birthday. In this document, SINTEF presents some advice and recommendations related to Norwegian research and innovation policy. In addition to our general recommendations, we present a number of self- contained articles written by SINTEF employees, providing views on various themes. The publication also contains some reflections on SINTEF’s first 60 years, on the future role of research institutes and on SINTEF’s position in the European research environment. November 2010 Research which creates wealth Research extends the boundaries of what we understand and can achieve. It has value in itself. Knowledge enriches society. Research and research-based knowledge make it possible to find solutions to the major challenges facing society, such as global warming, health issues and access to water, energy, raw materials and food. SINTEF’s distinctive character and specialisation is in providing technical solutions to the challenges facing our society. This involves making use of knowledge and technology developed in collaboration with key partners in the academic community, commerce and government. Collaboration of this type is developed over many years. This year it is 60 years since SINTEF came into the world. The decision to establish the Central Institute for Industrial Research (SI, Sentralinstituttet for industriell forskning) was made in Oslo in 1949, to provide a Norwegian facility for multidisciplinary industrial research. Shortly afterwards, professors in Trondheim took the initiative to create the SINTEF Foundation as a commission-based institute for industrial research affiliated with the Norwegian Institute of Technology.

    ANNUAL REPORT 2019 NCCS ANNUAL REPORT 2019 / 1 NCCS NCCS aims to fast-track CCS deployment by working closely with industry on research topics designed to address major barriers to making CCS happen in Norway, Europe, and the world. CO2 capture, transport, and storage (CCS) is a process where waste carbon dioxide (CO2) is captured from large industrial plants, transported in pipelines or ships and deposited (e.g. in an underground geological formation) so it will not enter the atmosphere. EU energy and climate targets cannot be met costeff ectively without CCS, NCCS (Norwegian CCS Research Centre) is a Centre for Environment-friendly while making sure we have enough energy to go around.
