Institute of Bioenergy and Resource Efficiency

    The energetic utilisation of biomass and the optimisation of material and energy flows are the focus of our scientific work.

    We are working on the clean and efficient energy supply of the future in the fields of alternative fuels, combustion research and resource efficiency. Together with our partners in business and science, we design products that are environmentally friendly and at the same time strengthen Switzerland as a business location.

    Our institute is jointly supported by the University of Applied Sciences Northwestern Switzerland FHNW and the Paul Scherrer Institute PSI, the largest research institution for natural sciences and engineering in Switzerland.

    Future-oriented collaboration

    "Within the CCUS project, we were able to count on the support of the Institute of Bioenergy and Resource Efficiency. The cooperation was very pleasant. The team is very competent and responded flexibly to the client's needs. The implementation of the project was efficient and effective. Using an interactive and agile approach, the objectives were met quickly and in line with the client's needs. At the end, a complete handover (including a short training) of the product took place, so that the product can continue to be used by Holcim."
