AENEAS (innovAtive ENErgy storage systems onboArd vesselS) is an R&D project funded by the European Union under the topic CL5-2022-D5-01-02 - Innovative energy storage systems on-board vessels.

​

The project officially started on 1st February 2023 and it will be carried out for 36 months by an international consortium consisting of 14 partners from 8 different countries.

​

In a nutshell, the project will provide solutions to improve overall energy efficiency and drastically lower energy consumption of waterborne transport vessels. It will develop three innovative electric energy storage solutions for waterborne transport: solid-state batteries, supercapacitors and a hybrid system. Moreover, it will define the pathway for these solutions for application in different ship types.
