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.
