Research

Risø creates new knowledge based on world-class research. The research focuses on Sustainable energy and on Nuclear technologies as Risø also is the national center for nuclear technology and ionizing radiation

Risø’s hallmark is problem-driven research. We set targets for research through continuous dialogue with the business sector, the political system and the research community.

Our work is based on the idea that knowledge is the key to the development of an innovative and sustainable society capable of facing global competition. This is why we ensure that our knowledge is used to create an impact on society.

The impact is apparent in areas such as sustainable energy supply, climate change mitigation, nuclear technologies for the diagnosis and treatment of diseases, higher quality of life and new job opportunities.
