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.

Nicolas Ferrando graduated from Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Ingénieurs en Génie Chimique (Toulouse) with a Chemical Engineering degree, followed by a PhD in Chemistry from Université Paris XI. He
Reinforcing and accelerating R&I In 2020, IFPEN’s energy resources activities were awarded the “Carnot Institute” label, in recognition of the numerous active collaborative initiatives with economic
There are two clear advantages when using hydrogen as a fuel: it can be produced from any energy source and it emits no or few pollutants during use. There is nothing new about the idea, but its large
Like electricity, hydrogen is primarily an energy vector produced from another resource. For economic reasons, 95% of it currently comes from natural gas. Some natural sources of hydrogen have
The energy transition and tackling climate change depend on the development of new renewable resources. IFPEN proposes processes for the production of fuels, bases for the chemicals sector and gas
Hydrogène Our networks sen4H2 project The sen4H2 (Sentinel Data for the Detection of Naturally Occurring Hydrogen Emanations) project, supported by the European Space Agency (ESA), was launched at the
Hydrogen Our solutions IFPEN is already active in some of the technological building blocks of the hydrogen value chain (H2) and a road map is being examined concerning investment in other areas
Hydrogen OVERVIEW AND CHALLENGES Growing support from the public authorities: on 1 June 2018, the French government launched a Hydrogen Plan aimed at supporting its deployment within the context of
