The centre’s value proposition is clear: Our work provides innovative solutions needed for the energy transition, whether measured on prototypes for the industry, financial results for society, reducing environmental impact, or delivering academic output.

In cooperation with the analytics firm DAMVAD we have developed a solid method for calculating the value created from our activities. Evaluating our activities is more than a methodology – it is part of our DNA.

We measure the value of our work on KPI’s such as:

  • Economic value for the industry
  • Economic value for society in general
  • Innovations and prototypes
  • Reduction of discharges to the sea
  • Reduction of CO2 emissions
  • Academic impact measured on number and quality of publications
  • Benchmarking with similar research institutions
  • Talent development, measured on completed PhD’s

We apply these measuring points depending on the scope of each activity, and we always work with a holistic view on the impact on society and how to address sustainability.
