NCCS Task 1, CCS Value Chain and Legal Aspects, is happy to announce that two students have started their work within the Centre. Both researchers are advised by Prof. Asgeir Tomasgard in the Department of Industrial Economics and Technology at NTNU, and co-advised by Task 1 leader, Research Scientist Simon Roussanaly from SINTEF Energy Research.

Dr. Ozgu Turgut

She is a Post-doctoral researcher who will study the role of CCS in the decarbonizing of the energy and industrial sector in Norway and Europe. She has experience in supply chain design tools from her time at Llamsoft Inc. and she has a strong background in probability, statistics, and simulations. Dr. Turgut holds a B.S. and a M.Sc. degree from Bosporus University and Yeditepe University of Turkey respectively; and a Ph.D. from Wayne State University (USA) in industrial and systems engineering fields.

Vegard Skonseng Bjerketvedt

He is a Ph.D. student who will study the optimal design and operation of CCS value chains with focus on the transport system, including the optimal transport shipping conditions. He has a MSc in energy and environmental engineering from NTNU with emphasis on electrical engineering, economics, and decision-making uncertainty. He has also worked at Statnett as a power systems analyst.

On February 15th, 2018, the Task 1 CO2 value chain team held a workshop at the Statoil Research Center at Rotvoll in Trondheim to welcome the students, align the work in Task 1, and plan for future research activities within NCCS.

We welcome Ozgu and Vegard to NCCS and we are excited to educate the next generation of CCS researchers within our Centre!  Good luck to you both!

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
