EVERGi

SUSTAINABLE MULTI-ENERGY SYSTEMS
EVERGi focusses on the design and operation of multi-energy systems (integrating various thermal, electric, mechanical and (bio)chemical energy carriers) that don’t need fossil fuels and are financially feasible and socially accepted. For this purpose, EVERGi has developed a platform and self-learning energy management algorithms that can optimise societal and technical KPIs in real-time.
​
Special attention also goes to stakeholder engagement and the inclusion of key technologies to enable the energy transition such as electric powertrains for vehicles, automation, bidirectional charging infrastructure, and energy demand & supply forecasting.
​
In addition, EVERGi has proven its vast expertise in life cycle sustainability assessment of technologies, quantifying the societal impact of all these technologies, considering environmental as well as economic and social KPIs in a current as well as a future context.

SUME

SUSTAINABLE MATERIALS ENGINEERING
SUME novel design strategies for sustainable (hybrid) materials and the fundamentals of the processes to obtain the envisioned structures. It combines the research units 'Physical Chemistry and Polymer Science' (FYSC) and 'Electrochemical and Surface Engineering' (SURF).
​
FYSC research activities are focused on 'structure - processing - property' relations in polymers for developing multi-functional materials with improved performance. The emphasis is on advanced thermal analysis for materials'characterization. Specific expertise is developed in non-traditional cements, focusing on utilizing secondary raw materials for eco-friendly construction.​
SURF explores the development of the next generation of high-performing and multifunctional metal surfaces, their production and applications.
