The sustainable energy solutions of the future
IVL Swedish Environmental Research Institute is working on the transition to a fossil-free, renewable, and resource-efficient energy system. We have extensive knowledge in the energy field and contribute to the shift to sustainable energy through research and assignments, both nationally and globally.
Our considerable expertise in energy matters, spanning across industry, buildings, and transport, is not just theoretical. Through modelling and scenario analysis, we are able to provide practical solutions and describe the tangible effects of various instruments. This approach, applied in both large research projects and individual client assignments, ensures the effectiveness of our solutions.
Experience in sustainability analyses
IVL is highly knowledgeable in district heating and the transition to flexible systems using heat recovery from unused heat flows. Other strengths include industrial symbiosis, building energy efficiency, and biogas solutions.
In these fields, IVL has many years of experience in sustainability analyses, including lifecycle analyses, modelling, and scenario work, as well as techno-economic assessments, policy analyses, and analysis of critical raw materials, which is crucial for the sustainability of the entire value chain.
IVL's fields of expertise in energy
Examples of IVL's work with energy and energy efficiency
Enflate develops energy exchange
Enflate is a project within Horizon Europe. The project aims to provide the means for the efficient control of the energy exchange at regional, national and international levels, to improve communication between distributed energy sources, and to increase involvement of consumers and users who are also producers.
Circular and resource-efficient process industry
In the EU project Retrofeed, six heavy industries in the steel and cement sectors will be made more energy efficient. This will be achieved by way of improved equipment and the development of control systems
Climate assessment of energy measures
Tidstegen is a tool you can use to make a climate assessment of energy solutions when renovating or building new properties. The tool calculates how a change in the building's energy use during the operational phase affects greenhouse gas emissions.
