EVOLEN'UP
  • Startups, entrepreneurs, companies !

    Tell us all about your innovative solutions !🪴

     

    🚨The new call for EVOLEN' UP solutions is now open !🚨

     

    Start-up, you have until March 9 to submit your application and have the chance to present your innovative technology to the EVOLEN' UP partners during the selection event planned early in April.

    The winning start-ups will then be announced on April 19th 2023.

     

    The main mission of EVOLEN' UP is to investigate and support new solutions to energy challenges and to make available to as many people as possible, in complete safety, energy that is cheap, reliable and clean, a vector of progress.

     

    3 themes for this call of solutions

    Circular economy - Recycling in the Energy industry

    Monitoring in the Energy ecosystems

     Sustainable production and use for Oil & Gas

    🚀 Do you have an interesting proposal for energy players ?

     

    💥 Apply now for the next call for solutions !

    ✅ I apply to EVOLEN' UP !

    To make yourself known to our partners committed to an open innovation approach to renew the industrial chain of the energy sector.

     

    Your applications will be carefully considered.

     

    Theme 1:

    Circular economy - Recycling in the Energy industries 

     

    Global consumption of materials such as biomass, fossil fuels, metals and minerals are expected to double in the next 40 years according to the Global Materials Resources Outlook to 2060 released by OECD. At the same time, the annual waste generation is projected to increase by 70% by 2050. Such data highlight how crucial scaling up the circular economy is.

     

    The impact of recycling on the future of energy transition is of prime importance. The industry is facing mounting environmental pressure to reduce waste of any kind. Recycling is projected to gradually become more competitive compared to extraction of primary materials. From a whole systemic perspective in the Energy ecosystem, a circular economy optimizes resource use of components, products, parts and materials for all energies (either conventional oil and gas or renewable energies). Technologies
    should be designed for durability, reuse and remanufacturing. This can be achieved through long-lasting design, maintenance, repair, reuse, remanufacturing, refurbishing, and recycling.

     

    However, recycling is still a complex industrial issue that involves multiple actors and that requires the development of technologies and of a new industrial sector. This call for solutions is therefore open to all start-ups likely to provide solutions/technologies that allow :

    • Recycling materials or raw materials (plastic, polymer, waste to chemicals, rare metals, lithium for instance)
    • Recycling of tools, energy
    • Recycling water
    • Reuse and recycling carbon dioxide, methane, carbon black
    • Recycling and diversifying usage of offshore platform, wind turbine blade, batteries
    • Eco-Design – Low Tech -Sobriety

    Theme 2:

    Monitoring in the Energy ecosystems 

     

    Industrial societies are now integrating the constraints linked to climate change. Technological solutions that reduce energy consumption, reduce the carbon footprint and use environmentally friendly energies are to be favored in order to achieve objectives of reducing the environmental footprint of the various industrial activities or even to achieve broader ambitions of carbon neutrality.

    A monitoring solution is a system for supervising key industrial parameters to measure, control and prevent their impacts in general and more specifically in the current trend their environmental impact.

     

    The theme of this new call for solutions targets new technologies, processes, products and services to monitor various key parameters in the energy ecosystem while reducing environmental impacts. Without being exhaustive, this new call for solutions is therefore open to all start-ups likely to provide innovative solutions:

    • To extend exploration, to improve operational efficiency and reduce the environmental impact
    • To operate inextreme conditions: for example, in pressure, in temperature, in corrosive environment
    • To operate insubsea and/or in deep sea
    • To use sensors of all types of physical parameters: seismic, physic, electrical, magnetic, chemical, photonic…
    • To deploy lidars
    • To use drones, robot assisted systems, cameras
    • To make use of associated digital solutions

    Theme 3:

    Sustainable production and use for Oil and Gas  

     

    In order to reach the goalsin the Paris Agreement, global energy systems need to be transformed. The dual objective of providing more energy for all and fewer carbon emissions is a significant challenge for society as a whole.  

     

    The industrial sector in general and the energy sector in particular are concerned. Sustainable production and use of energies are linked to decarbonization of the global energy system which are often listed as energy efficiency, behavioral changes, electrification, renewables, hydrogen and hydrogen‐based fuels, bioenergy and CCUS. Carbon capture and storage is a key technology to significantly reduce emissions. The use and separation of gases and more specifically of greenhouses gases is another challenge to address.

     

    In parallel, another complementary promising pillar is the life cycle analysis for the current or new technologies.  

     

    This new call for solutions is therefore open to allstart-ups likely to provide solutions that allow :

    • Emission reduction of greenhouse gases: mainly CO2, CH4
    • Measure, capture and/or separation of the gases emitted by industrial processes even at local scale
    • Transformation and valorization of gases (for instance CO2) and emitted carbon
    • Geological or chemical storage of gases especially of CO2 Life Cycle Analysis (LCA)
