5 milioni di euro dall'Europa al progetto Unipd per il recupero dell’energia residua dell’acqua L’Università di Padova si aggiudica un altro finanziamento prestigioso nell’ambito del programma Horizon Europe grazie al coordinamento di Giovanna Cavazzini, professoressa del Dipartimento di Ingegneria Industriale, in collaborazione con il Centro Interdipartimentale Giorgio Levi Cases.

The University of Padova (Italy) is seeking outstanding researchers of any age and nationality to leverage successful applications for the next ERC Starting Grant call, that is funded by the European Commission Framework programme Horizon 2020.

ERC Starting Grants are open to potential Principal Investigators with 2-7 years of experience since completion of PhD, a scientific track record showing great promise and an excellent research proposal.

Through the Talent@UNIPD – ERC Starting Grant 2020 initiative, the University of Padova aims at selecting promising candidates for the forthcoming ERC Starting Grant 2020 call (expected deadline October, 16, 2019). Selected candidates will be supported at each stage of the proposal writing by a highly skilled staff.

Ready to present an interesting patent on energy storage!!!

Biogas technology is an interesting way to convert agricultural feedstock, animal manure and sewage in a useful biofuel.

Have a look to this full open access publication and see our findings in terms of Italian biogas asset and its environmental impact.

The hidden energy recovery potential in water district networks in South Africa!

Water district networks hide a renewable energy potential which can be recovered by means of hydropower.

See our recent findings on hidden hydropower potential!

A hydraulic model has been developed for the preliminary identification of excess operating pressures within the system.

EPANET hydraulic model of the city of Polokwane

These excess pressures can be converted into electrical energy through the process of energy recovery with hydro turbines
