ALGAESOL project will develop and evaluate solutions for sustainable conversion of sunlight into fuels that can aid to reduce aviation and shipping biofuel production costs up to 25% and accelerate the replacement of fossil-based energy technologies. The project is funded by the European Union’s Horizon Europe Research and Innovation Action (RIA) programme, coordinated by NORCE (Norwegian Research Centre) and brings together universities, industrial designers, technologies suppliers into the same consortium. It unites skills towards the development of cost-effective, sustainable and renewable aviation and shipping fuels based on game-changing microalgae and direct solar fuel production and purification technologies.
