MISSION
LENI develops thermodynamically based generic methodologies for the integration and optimization of complex energy systems and networks increasingly accounting for LCA factors. LENI leads theoretical and experimental studies of energy conversion systems and equipment with a growing emphasis on decentralized cogeneration (including fuel cells), renewables (solar, biomass) and heat pumps.
BIOGRAPHY
Daniel Favrat graduated from EPFL with a diploma in Mechanical Engineering in 1972 and a PhD in 1976. He then spent more twelve years in industrial energy research centers in Canada and in Switzerland. Since 1988 he is professor at EPFL and director of the Laboratory for industrial energy systems. Since 2001 he is also director of the Institute of Energy Sciences, which groups nine chairs covering both thermo-fluid sciences and electricity. His research includes systemic analyses in what is called environomics (a contraction of energy, environment and economics). He also contributes to the design of advanced equipment for a more rational use of energy (heat pumps and organic Rankine cycles, fuel cells and biogas engines, thermal power plants including geothermal and solar. Within the frame of the Alliance for Global Sustainability between the Swiss Federal Institutes of Technology, MIT and the University of Tokyo, he contributed to several projects among which the elaboration of a design platform accounting for sustainable development. Prof Favrat is a member of the Swiss Academy of Engineering Sciences and the vice-president of the standing energy committee of the World Federation of Engineering Organisations.
He is associate editor of several well established scientific journals. He also contributed to a white book on advanced energy technologies published by Novatlantis and is the coauthor of two books on "thermodynamics and energy systems" published by the "Presses Polytechniques Universitaires Romandes".
