​​

• (25.09) Our research group is truly honored to announce the beginning of a new collaboration with the Norwegian Geotechnical Institute (NGI), one of the world’s leading research institutes in geotechnical engineering and subsurface energy technologies. Through this partnership, we aim to leverage NGI’s state-of-the-art experimental facilities, modern and inspiring research environment, and the expertise and strong motivation of its outstanding team. This collaboration will provide a valuable platform for advancing joint research in subsurface energy storage, geomechanics, and sustainable underground engineering. We look forward to building a long-term partnership with NGI, fostering innovative research, and contributing to global efforts toward a more sustainable energy future.
