Ophiolite advances new technologies from research to industry by systematically moving them through TRLs. From TRL 2–4, it focuses on proof-of-concept, lab testing, and feasibility validation. From TRL 4–7/8, it conducts pilot production and large-scale testing to meet market and regulatory standards. Business models, IP, and exploitation strategies are integrated to ensure scalable, viable industrial adoption.

Horizon Europe:

Immersion cooling & advanced materials for heat recovery from data centers

Enhancing Energy Efficiency in Data Centres

The MODERATOR project aims to improve the overall energy efficiency of data centres by integrating immersion cooling technologies with advanced long-term thermal energy storage materials. This approach seeks to optimize heat management, reduce energy consumption, and enhance the sustainability of data centre operations.

​​

Ophiolite plays a pivotal role in the project by leading the Exploitation Strategy, Business Model Innovation, and Intellectual Property (IPR) Management. Additionally, Ophiolite is responsible for the development of a multi-layer insulation system designed to improve the efficiency and thermal performance of energy storage systems within the data centre infrastructure.

IPN - Research Council of Norway:

​

Development of a circular pontoon design 

​

The GeoPon project is dedicated to the development of a 100% circular pontoon, eliminating the use of extruded polystyrene (EPS) foam by integrating geopolymer concrete and recycled aggregates. This innovation aims to enhance environmental sustainability, structural performance, and long-term durability in marine infrastructure while contributing to carbon sequestration and waste reduction.

​

Ophiolite is responsible for leading the Exploitation Strategy, Business Model Innovation, and Intellectual Property (IPR) Management, ensuring the successful commercialization and market adoption of this fully circular solution. Additionally, Ophiolite is responsible for the development of a low carbon and circular block material to replace the use of EPS.

EUROSTARS E! :

Advanced Protection for High-Temperature Geothermal Wells

​

The ProCase project focuses on the development of a three-layered composite casing system designed to enhance the durability and performance of geothermal wells. This innovative casing provides protection against corrosion, extreme thermal expansion, and high-temperature operating conditions, ensuring increased well integrity and longevity in demanding geothermal environments.

​

Ophiolite leads advancements in material design, exploitation strategy, and business model development, ensuring that the technology is technically validated, commercially scalable, and aligned with industry needs.
