The NOWITECH Innovation Award is intended to stimulate and reward knowledge-based innovation and / or entrepreneurship within the field of offshore wind energy. The award will help to identify ideas with commercial potential. There were many very exciting nominated innovations in 2016.

The 2016 award is given for the work on real-time hybrid model testing of offshore wind turbines. The winners 2016 have developed a truly innovative concept, demonstrated commercial viability and shown great prospect for cost reduction of offshore wind. The Prize shared among the winners is 10.000 NOK and a diploma each.

Next to the right Committee chair Oddbjørn Malmo, Kongsberg Maritime and John Olav Tande, SINTEF Energi. In the committee were also Daniel Zwick, Fedem and Per Arne Wilson, NTNU.

NOWITECH congratulates!

Infographic showing the flow of thermal energy storage (TES) from surplus heat or cold to end users. On the left, red and blue thermometer icons represent surplus heat and cooling, accompanied by the text “Surplus heat or cold – Captured and stored for when it’s needed.” In the centre, a large panel titled “Thermal Energy Storage (TES)” presents three storage technologies. The top section, “Sensible TES,” shows a container with a thermometer and the text “Stores heat in one single phase.” The middle section, “Latent TES,” shows a water droplet and snowflake connected by circular arrows, with the text “Stores heat through phase change.” The bottom section, “Thermochemical TES,” shows two connected coloured circles that separate and reconnect, illustrating a reversible reaction, with the text “Stores heat through reversible reactions.” A large pale arrow-shaped wedge points from the TES panel toward the right side of the figure. On the right, three application areas are shown in separate boxes with icons: industrial processes, buildings, and data centres. The layout conveys that surplus heat or cold can be stored using sensible, latent, or thermochemical TES technologies and later supplied to industrial facilities, buildings, and data centres.

Thermal energy storage is already commercial
