RESULTS CONFERENCE: GREEN TRANSITION NORTH

Wednesday, 13 December 2023, 9:00-15:00, Pite Havsbad, Piteå
 During the day you will have the opportunity to explore Hitachi Energy's prominent role in the development of carbon neutral energy systems and discover PiteEnergy's significant role as a leader in renewable energy. Of course, we will also be showcasing some of our exciting sub-projects, which focus on sustainable business models for food supply, improving circular economy in value chains and extending product life cycles, among other things.

Monitoring, data collection and control of industrial processes

We had the opportunity to interview Mohammad Newaj Jamil, a PhD student specialising in Pervasive and Mobile Computing at Luleå University of Technology. He gave us insights into Green Transition North's sub-project 11, "Sensor Fusion and Data Analysis"," which focuses on improving the recovery process of black pulp from lithium batteries through hydrometallurgy.

The fight against electromagnetic interference

We interviewed Emelie Berglund, PhD student in Electronic Systems at Luleå University of Technology, about Green Transition North's sub-project 2 "Development of active filters for EMC"," which is about reducing electromagnetic interference (EMC) in electric drive systems. Power electronic systems generate interference, and the goal is to develop small, energy-efficient and integrated filters for electrified transport systems.

Visit by Member of the European Parliament

On 7 September 2023, MEP Rosa Damato and three members of her team visited Luleå University of Technology to explore our role in the green transition. LTU is known for its close cooperation with industry and our research contributes to solving the challenges associated with the transition. We have focused on how we empower SMEs through various projects such as Green Transition North and invited Rosa Damato to visit CH2ESS during Hydrogen Week in Brussels in November.

INTERVIEW: Optimised storage of electricity in mobile battery units

We interviewed Amin Moosavi, PhD student in fluid mechanics at Luleå University of Technology, about the sub-project 5 "Optimised storage of electricity in mobile battery units", which addresses key challenges in battery storage, including safety, cost, lifetime, limited energy density and environmental impact. In particular, the project aims to improve the thermal management of batteries in mobile applications.

Webinar: Exploring future 5G/6G opportunities

11 September, 2023, 13.00 - 14.30 (CET)

Welcome to this webinar where we will explore next generation connectivity. During our session we will talk about the important role of satellite communications in bridging the digital divide and connecting remote areas. We will also take a look at the 5G Vehicle Winter Testing Track, which will enable smart traffic and weather services, as well as explore the concept of rural access through windmill antennas. 

The Data Week conference ended with inspiring visits to the 5G test bed

On Thursday, June 15, 2023, the Data Week conference ended with an exciting visit to the 5G test bed at Luleå University of Technology. European AI experts attended and had the opportunity to see experiments and demonstrations within the 5G test network. The event, organized by Luleå University of Technology and Ericsson, offered valuable insights and engaging presentations.

Green transition north has begun

Luleå University of Technology's ambitious Green Transition North project has begun. On 2 June 2023, around fifty participants gathered to start the collaboration. The aim of the project is to promote green transition in northern Sweden and contribute to a sustainable future.

DATA FOR GREEN: TACKLING THE CLIMATE CHANGE CHALLENGES

Join us at DATA WEEK 2023 in Luleå on 14 June at 15:30!
In this session we will discuss how to tackle the challenges of climate change using data. We will bring together experts from different sectors and fields. The aim is to facilitate discussions and create synergies between projects and important European initiatives.

58 million for new projects within the green transition

Luleå University of Technology has been granted SEK 58 million by Tillväxtverket, The Swedish Agency for Economic and Regional Growth and other financiers for two major projects in green transition, namely Green Transition North – smart energy systems and Green Transition North – circular economy. The projects take place in close cooperation with the industry within the green transition and what is important, together small and medium-sized companies in northern Sweden
