Goal
Build competence to meet the opportunities and challenges the transition to a
low-carbon energy system brings, by supporting science that provides fundamental insight in:
- Basin analysis, efficient resource identification and utilization, and unlocking new resources
- Future development solutions
- Sustainability, environment and low carbon solutions
Strategy
2020–2050
In a 2020–2050 perspective, fossil resources will remain an important contributor to global energy consumption. It is therefore imperative to lower the environmental footprint of fossil fuels production by:
- optimizing energy efficiency in all operations including field electrification
- develop CCS/CCUS technologies
Beyond 2050
In a perspective beyond 2050, a CO2 neutral society will require efficient energy storage and transport solutions to meet the intermittency of renewable energy sources, and to secure energy supply beyond the electricity grid.
