Our Services
REGIONAL ENERGY POTENTIALS
Focused maninly on available biomass, we offer the following services:
- Regional analysis
- Establishment of theoretical RES potential
- Geographical allocation analysis for biomass potentials
- Engineering and management of energy solutions based on RES
DEVELOPMENT AND IMPLEMENTATION OF DECISION SUPPORT MODELS
Methods, tools and models can be developed to evaluate the environmental and energy sectors, in order to support industrial and public bodies to take adequate decisions for an appropriate current and future use of renewable resources as well as the appropriate management of residues.
- Development of knowledge-based systems
- Development of decision-support models
- Multicriteria analysis
- System dynamics analysis
ECOEFFICIENCY AND LIFE CYCLE ANALYSIS
- Supporting eco-design
- Definition of potential environmental impacts from productive sectors, identifying achievable goals of process enhancement based on the process' life cycle.
- Product life cycle benchmarks.
