Politecnico di Milano, Dipartimento di Energia

The Department of Energy joins together different skills existing at Politecnico di Milano in various fields of engineering to provide, through an interdisciplinary approach, convenient solutions to the complex problems that currently affect the energy sector. The research activity embraces almost all the range of energy sciences and technologies focused on:

• Basic disciplines (thermodynamics, fluid-dynamics, chemistry, electricity, nuclear sciences, materials)

• High-tech components of energy plants (turbomachinery, internal combustion engines, heat transfer equipment, combustors, fuel cell, chemical reactors)

• Renewables (solar-photovoltaic and Concentrated Solar Power, biomass, geothermal, wind, hydro)

• Clean coal technologies and Carbon Capture and Storage

• Distributed generation and Smart Grids

• Nuclear Reactors and Technologies

• Integrated Renewable Energies Systems (IRES)
