Synergies - Sun Fusion

Welcome to SUNFUSION’s synergies and collaborations corner, where we highlight our partnerships with the cluster we proudly belong to and a wider network of initiatives that share our vision for a cleaner, more resilient future. Together, these synergies amplify our impact and accelerate progress toward next-generation renewable technologies.

SUSTAFUELS Cluster

SUNFUSION is proud to be part of the SUSTAFUELS cluster, a joint initiative aimed at maximising technical innovation, impact, and outreach toward a greener and more circular transport system. Within the cluster, we collaborate with nine projects focused on advancing algae-based sustainable fuels through shared expertise and coordinated action.

FUELGAE

To meet the EU’s carbon neutrality goals, innovative solutions are needed to decarbonise hard-to-electrify sectors such as aviation and shipping.

SUSTEPS

SUSTEPS project is an ambitious initiative dedicated to the sustainable production of advanced biofuels, particularly aviation fuels, from microalgae.

ICARUS

The EU-funded project ICARUS – International Cooperation for Sustainable Aviation Biofuels – is dedicated to advancing Sustainable

SusAlgaeFuel

While air traffic continues to grow worldwide, reducing environmental pollution remains an urgent challenge.

COCPIT

The COCPIT Project focuses on the cultivation of microalgae in intensified photobioreactors (PBRs) enclosed in a photovoltaic shell (STPV)

CAPTUS

Energy intensive industries (EII) face the great challenge of remaining competitive while reducing their carbon emissions

ALGAESOL

ALGAESOL aims to develop cost-effective, sustainable and renewable biofuels based on microalgae and direct solar

ALFAFUELS

The ALFAFUELS project seeks to develop innovative Sustainable Aviation Fuels (SAF) technology to reduce aviation’s reliance on fossil fuels.

NIAGARA

NIAGARA aims to transform European biogenic waste streams—such as wastewater, digestate, and sewage sludge—together with microalgae

Collaborative Initiatives

Our collaborative efforts extend beyond the SUSTAFUELS cluster. SUNFUSION also works closely with additional initiatives whose goals align with our mission and whose expertise enriches our research approach.

FUELPHORIA

FUELPHORIA is an EU-funded Innovation Action project that aims to establish sustainable, competitive, and secure value chains from advanced biofuels
