IFPEN
IFP Energies nouvelles (IFPEN) is a major research and training player in the fields of energy, transport and the environment. From scientific concepts within the framework of fundamental research, through to technological solutions in the context of applied research, innovation is central to its activities, hinged around four strategic directions: climate, environment and circular economy – renewable energies – sustainable mobility – responsible oil and gas.
As part of the public-interest mission with which it has been tasked by the public authorities, IFPEN focuses its efforts on bringing solutions to the challenges facing society and industry in terms of energy and the climate, to support the ecological transition. An integral part of IFPEN, IFP School, its graduate engineering school, prepares future generations to take up these challenges.
Applied research programs are structured around four strategic priorities:
- climate, environment and circular economy: reducing the impact of human and industrial activities on the climate and the environment;
- renewable energies: producing energy, fuels and chemical intermediates from renewable sources;
- sustainable mobility: developing efficient, environmentally-friendly solutions for the transport sector;
- responsible oil and gas: meeting the demand for energy and chemical products in a more environmentally-friendly manner.
IFPEN thereby contributes to the creation of value by supporting French and European economic activity and the competitiveness of industrial sectors related to mobility, energy, and eco-industry.
Inria
Inria is the French national research institute for digital science and technology. World-class research, technological innovation, and entrepreneurial risk are its DNA. In 200 project teams, most of which are shared with major research universities, more than 3,900 researchers and engineers explore new paths, often in an interdisciplinary manner and in collaboration with industrial partners to meet ambitious challenges. As a technological institute, Inria supports the diversity of innovation pathways: from open source software publishing to the creation of technological startups (Deeptech).
