Two New Research Centers Created at Gdańsk Tech

wind energy
Gdańsk University of Technology, in cooperation with the socio-economic environment, established two university-wide, interdisciplinary research centers: the Offshore Wind Energy Center and the Hydrogen Technologies Center. The task of both centers is to coordinate research, design and expert works for the construction of offshore wind farms and modern hydrogen technologies in the energy sector.

The Offshore Wind Energy Center brings together outstanding specialists from all areas of knowledge related to offshore wind energy and has a highly specialized laboratory base that allows for detailed identification of many technical and organizational problems in the construction and operation of offshore wind farms.

Hydrogen Technologies Center

Hydrogen
It is the first unit of this type in Poland to offer research services related to hydrogen. It concentrates on competences in the field of processing, storing and combustion of hydrogen as well as processing energy obtained in fuel cells.  

The Center is a unit dedicated to cooperation with the industry, including the practical application of scientific achievements, and deals with comprehensive service of hydrogen projects (from the concept phase, through design solutions, modeling the manufacturing process as well as diagnostics and maintenance of the developed solutions), as well as the development and maintenance of existing technologies using hydrogen.

Offshore Wind Energy Center

Wind farm
The Center brings together outstanding specialists from all areas of knowledge related to offshore wind energy and has a highly specialized laboratory base that enables detailed identification of many technical and organizational problems in the construction and operation of offshore wind farms. The team of scientists gathered in the center also has experience and didactic achievements in specialist and managerial training of the engineering and managerial staff of the broadly understood offshore wind energy sector.

The Center offers scientific support in the field of design, manufacturing technology, operation of offshore wind farms, conducts research, advises on how to solve technical issues, and trains management and engineering staff.

The Center's activities are focused on the following research areas:
