Paris hosts EUROCORR 2024: a step forward in research and awareness on corrosion issues

From September 1 to 5, corrosion specialists gathered in Paris for the EUROCORR 2024 conference, organized by the European Corrosion Federation (EFC) and the French Anticorrosion Centre (CEFRACOR). A glimpse into the work presented by the IFPEN teams at this event, under the slogan “A step forward in societal awareness of material degradation issues”. Just as the Paralympic Games were taking place in the capital, the EFC was also honoring the finest experts in the field.

Technologies have progressed significantly and a whole host of different wave energy systems are in the process of being developed to convert this resource into electricity.
Issues and Foresight

Wind power: converting wind into electricity

Sailing boats, windmills, etc. Humans have made use of wind energy for centuries. Thanks to technological progress, today it is possible to produce “green” electricity without using fossil resources. We take a closer look at its development prospects and the remaining challenges to be overcome.
