The Research Council of Norway provides long-term funding for research on renewable energy, energy efficiency, CCS and social science aspects of energy research, and that has potential for innovation and value creation. The CEER/FME scheme, advertisements, and current and former centres.

Eight new CEER/FME

Eight new CEER/FME

Eight new Research Centers for environmentally friendly energy will receive from NOK 120 to 180 million (in Norwegian) over eight years to solve key challenges in the energy and climate area and strengthen the innovative capacity of Norwegian business. The centers that have received funding work with solar energy, batteries and carbon capture and storage, among other things.

NTNU will host three of the new centers, and will be partner in five of the new centres.
