The Institute has developed deep insights in areas such as solar PV, hydrogen, negative emissions technologies, gas hydrates, carbon capture and storage, wind, smart grids, and energy storage and continues to address the most pressing emerging topics such as the impact of digitalization.
Energy conversion corresponds to the transformation of an energy form to another, while its transport and storage ensure that energy is delivered to the demand sites or stored for future use.

Greenhouse gas emissions are those natural or anthropogenic emissions that have an impact on the atmosphere, by keeping the solar radiation heat that reaches the Earth.
Low-carbon energies are those energy technologies that have lower greenhouse gas emissions compared to the traditional fossil fuel energies.
Natural resources correspond to those mineral or biological resources that can be found in the environment and are extracted and used by humankind. Among mineral resources, fossil fuels in the form of coal, oil, and gas have historically been used as energy vectors.
