A significant breakthrough in physics of materials has been made to further to increase efficiency in production of energy. New non-fragile carbon composites were developed as well as new superconductors.
Advanced screening techniques improve airport security
Terrorist threats in air traffic are nullified due to new scanning techniques (without hindering time)
Super-efficient power lines with almost zero resistance
Future breakthrough in high-temperature superconductors or carbon nanotubes (CNT) enable loss-less transmission of electrical power. Carbon nanotubes exhibit so-called "ballistic conductivity", which is effectively similar to s...
EU becomes the global energy net exporter by 2030
The problem of solar cells have been their relativelly short lifetime, payback time and costs of establishing a system. The FP 7 project ROBUST DSC is studying and developing Dye Sensitized Solar Cells (DSC) with long lifetime ...
Integration of all - so far decoupled - air transport systems such as systems for traffic management, runway lightning control, baggage handling, passenger check-in and flight information display. The airport can be run by a ce...
Increased Awareness for Work-Life Balance in EU Workplaces
There is an increase in research on improving the work-life balance that will eventually increase productivity and efficiency of employees in the EU.
