Our Vision
Our vision is to be one of the leading players in paving the way for the power system of the future. The group will provide real-world technology solutions to support the Digitalization & Electrification of the power system and facilitate the current Energy transition.
Our research group conducts research and has the expertise to benefit the industry and the public in Norway and internationally. We aim to be a preferred partner in Norwegian and European research projects and seeks to take a lead role in Norway within electrical power system research.
Thematic focus includes, but is not limited to, the following:
Hydropower
Solar power
Wind power
Electrification
