For the past few years, IFPEN has been developing a methodology aimed at gaining a better understanding of physicochemical phenomena and calibrating empirical thermodynamic laws using in silico calculations based on a molecular simulation approach.
Naval Group has successfully generated electricity continuously for 18 days in representative submarine patrol operational conditions, thanks to a fuel cell (FC) powered by a hydrogen production system developed in partnership with IFPEN.

Energy storage consists in preserving a quantity of energy produced for later use. The idea is to ensure a balance between energy production and consumption, reduce losses and, hence, optimize costs.
Energy storage Our strengths Expertise throughout the R&I chain: Optimization, data sciences, computer engineering: Cloud platform for battery management and control in the context of self-consumption, electricity grid services: planning according to price criteria, behavior monitoring during aging, etc. Dimensioning tools incorporating technical and economic aspects and adjusted according to
IFPEN focuses its activities on improving electric energy surface storage processes, adapted to network services, such as microgrids. Energy Management Systems (EMS) / Advanced Adiabatic Compressed Air Energy Storage (AA-CAES) / Electrochemical storage via Redox Flow Batteries
Energy storage OVERVIEW AND CHALLENGES The energy transition targets an increasingly low-carbon economy. Observation Problem electricity produced on a large scale from renewable sources, primarily wind and solar >> variable production decentralized electricity production variable production and difficulty balancing electricity supply and demand; risk of disruption to electricity supplies in
Energy storage, one of the major challenges within the context of the energy transition, can take a variety of forms. For heat storage, one of the solutions developed at IFPEN is based on a fixed
