Eni and MIT, pursuing excellence in the area of sustainable development

Young work team faces off in meeting

Our collaboration with MIT

Our research partnership with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) of Boston focuses on several areas. We concentrate on renewable energy and energy storage technologies, offshore wind farm design support and carbon capture, storage and utilisation systems. We are also involved in biofuel development and magnetic confinement fusion. We are exploring the application of artificial intelligence to the energy industry.

 

The partnership began in 2008 and has been consolidated over the years. The multiple research programmes we have launched reflect the great importance we place on technological innovation as a key factor in achieving the Net Zero target.

We participate in MIT strategic research initiatives

Our collaboration with MIT takes the form of joining specific scientific initiatives such as the MIT Energy Initiative (MITEI), of which we are a founding member, dedicated to research into zero and low-emission energy to combat climate change and make energy more accessible.

 

This partnership gives us the opportunity to contribute to the development of innovative or disruptive technologies in a global context, as well as to increase internal expertise and exchange with startups in the MIT ecosystem.

 

Every year, Eni and MIT research scientists have the opportunity to meet during a workshop ("Eni&MIT Days") to discuss current projects and generate new ideas.
