Participation in projects supports our efforts to be closely involved in sustainable development and the future in the energy sector/industry. The projects also contribute to and strengthen cooperation between our different partners / stakeholders.
Aurelia Turbines is involved in the following projects
MARPOWER Project
The maritime sector’s transition to zero-emission transport is crucial for reducing environmental impact. Current power systems rely on fossil fuels, contributing to significant CO2 emissions. There is a need for advanced technologies that use sustainable alternative fuels effectively. High efficiency and fuel flexibility are key to this transition.
To tackle this challenge, the EU-funded MARPOWER project will develop an advanced gas turbine system. This system can use green methane, green methanol, hydrogen, and ammonia, achieving up to 55 % electrical efficiency and 76 % overall efficiency. Its modular design supports both electrical power generation and Combined Heat and Power mode. By reducing maritime CO2 emissions, MARPOWER aims to boost European leadership in the sector.
The project has received funding from the European Union under Grant Agreement No. 101138341

ROBINSON Project
ROBINSON’s main mission is to develop an integrated energy system to help decarbonise islands. Islands often find it challenging to ensure a clean, secure and cost-effective supply of energy. The key is to decrease dependency on fossil fuels and become energy self-sufficient through a mix of renewable energy generation and storage infrastructure
The 18 partners from 10 different European countries involved in ROBINSON. Aurelia Turbines is one of them.
The project is funded by the EU’s Horizon 2020 Smart European electricity grid with a grant of 8,4 M€ under Grant Agreement No. 957752. The project started in October 2020 and the duration will be 4 years.

FUTURBINE Project
The FUTURBINE project aims to support Aurelia’s growth strategy by demonstrating and validating the fuel flexibility performance of Aurelia® A400 in a real time operational environment. Furthermore, the project will optimize the company’s value chain and launch its innovative integrator partner model and accelerate the commercialization activities for global market entry.
The project is funded by the EU's Horizon 2020 SME Instrument Phase 2 program with a grant of 2.3 M€ under Grant Agreement No. 873576. The project started in September 2019 and the duration will be 2 years. The project was extended by one year and the project officially ended on 31 August 2022.
