From Research to Industry
By bringing together fundamental and technological research, the project contributes to improving the competitiveness of local companies, the development of industrial sectors and to combining training, research and industry in order to become a key centre for the development of new energies.
Thus, the City of Energies is structured around four strategic axes :
- Solar energy
- 3rd generation biofuels from microalgae
- Technology transfers developed by the various CEA institutes
The platforms bring together demonstrators, laboratories and shared equipment enabling private companies and staff to CEA Tech in the Southern Region to carry out R&D programs.
To date, more than 30 partnership contracts have been signed, representing more than €71 million in registered investments.
