Towards integrated management of freshwater Nature 2000 sites and habitats (FRESHABIT)
Start date: Jan 1, 2016, End date: Sep 30, 2022,
Background
Freshwater habitats are among the most threatened habitat types globally. In the 2007-2012 conservation status assessment of the EU Habitats Directive (Article 17), none of the freshwater, coastal, and groundwater dependent wetland habitats in Europe fully met favourable conservation status, and most are in unfavourable conservation status. Alm ...

Safe long term operation of light water reactors based on improved understanding of radiation effects in nuclear structural materials (SOTERIA)
Start date: Sep 1, 2015, End date: Aug 31, 2019,
The overall aim of the SOTERIA project is to improve the understanding of the ageing phenomena occurring in reactor pressure vessel (RPV) steels and in the internal steels (internals) in order to provide crucial information to regulators and operators to ensure safe long-term operation (LTO) of existing European nuclear power plants (NPPs). SOTERIA has set up a collaborative research consortium wh ...

Production of Solid Sustainable Energy Carriers from Biomass by Means of Torrefaction (SECTOR)
Start date: Jan 1, 2012, End date: Jun 30, 2015,
Torrefaction is considered worldwide as a promising key technology for boosting large-scale implementation of bioenergy. It involves heating biomass in the absence of oxygen to a temperature of 200 to 320 °C. As a result, the biomass looses all its moisture and becomes easy to grind and water resistant, which reduces the risk of spontaneous ignition and biological degradation and permits outdoor s ...

Boosting Energy Awareness With Adaptive Real-time Environments (Be Aware)
Start date: May 1, 2008, End date: Apr 30, 2011,
Reduction of energy consumption is a societal challenge that requires combination of technical, economical, and social means. So far, energy conservation has focused on new technologies and automation, treating users as passive consumers. However, strong evidence suggests that users can adapt actively their behaviour to energy saving with suitable feedback, support, and incentives, reducing signif ...
