Strong synergies between various skills enabling a multidisciplinary approach
- The ESP Carnot institute provides its partners with expertise, know-how and relevant measurement means in the fields related to the optimization of energy systems and propulsion systems : from fluid mechanics and energetics to the study of the emissions and their environmental impacts, as well as materials, acoustics and embedded systems.
- The ESP Carnot institute teams are located in the same area and they are used to implement joint projects while having complementary means. That enables them to offer a suitable answer to the industrial problems through an approach ranging from the most fundamental stage to the pre-competitive one.
- The ESP Carnot institute aims to successfully implement new transformation processes which require less energy and which are more reliable and environmentally favourable.
A highly developed partnership research
- Most research activities of the ESP Carnot institute deals with industrial needs and is carried out in partnership with companies.
- The ESP Carnot institute supports the regional Normandie AeroEspace and Energies Haute-Normanide networks.
- Its teams are research actors in a lot of French "pôle de compétitivité" clusters such as MOV’EO, Aerospace Valley, ASTech, Nov@log, TES, System@tics...
