A transition to a sustainable energy system is essential. The major international issues surrounding security of supply, climate change and sustainability all require developments and innovation in sustainable energy technology, consultancy and policy recommendations. The transition to sustainable forms of energy production and consumption provides the basis for ECN's activities. Energy savings, the introduction of renewable energy and clean use for fossil fuels are the elements needed for the transition to a sustainable and affordable energy system.

With and for the market, we develop knowledge and technology that enable a transition to a sustainable energy system.

Your energy. Our passion.
