ENEA climate modeling researchers have developed an advanced mathematical model, called MED16, capable of reproducing as faithfully as possible the VARIABILITY of Mediterranean Sea LEVEL, from the past to the future. "The latest 2021 IPCC report points out that average projections of sea level rise are not accurate enough for marginal basins like the Mediterranean, which require specific models. Our study finally fills this scientific gap ", explained Gianmaria Sannino, head of the ENEA laboratory of Climate Modeling and Impacts and author of the new study Modelling present and future climate in the Mediterranean Sea: a focus on sea-level change.
Researchers at the ENEA Biomedical Technologies Laboratory have developed and patented a new portable device to calibrate and standardize the different molecular testing devices and also make them capable to detect Covid variants, sending data in real time to a control center
“A few simple and cost-effective steps are enough to reduce our bills, and further significant savings can be obtained by conducting maintenaince operations, controlling and regulating room temperature, replacing energy-intensive appliances with more efficient models, or even insulating buildings, a structural intervention whose cost is currently covered by a 110% tax deduction called Superbonus ”, explained Ilaria Bertini, Head of the ENEA Energy Efficiency Department.
The first hydrogen vehicle for the handling of goods in a European port is Italian. Designed and developed by the ATENA consortium, with the support of ENEA, Cantieri del Mediterraneo and the 'Parthenope' and Salerno Universities., the four-wheeled port tractor, yard truck in jargon, will be tested for the first time in the Valencia airport in Spain by Grimaldi Group in its Terminal Europe, as part of the European project 'H2Ports' worth 4 million euro
The President of ENEA, Gilberto Dialuce, and the CEO of Eni, Claudio Descalzi, announce the signing of a Joint Cooperation Agreement (JCA) for the realisation of projects focused on decarbonisation and ecological energy transition.
A training and operational exercises program to improve preparedness and fast response of operators of public critical infrastructures in case of a CBRN (Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear and explosive) event. This is the objective of the project RESIST, part of the activities of the Italian Cluster CBRN-P3, funded by the European Commission with approximately 1.1 million euro, which includes ENEA, SAFE Foundation (as coordinator), National Fire Brigade Corps, Institute of International Affairs, Ministry of Defense, University of Tor Vergata and Romanian Cluster PROECO-CBRNE.
