On June 17, 2026, the GIFFT project was presented at the 2nd conference of the Interreg South Baltic Programme project LoCaGas (Low Calorific Gas for Green Power Production), held in Kaunas, Lithuania.
The conference brought together researchers, industry representatives, policymakers, and other stakeholders to discuss innovative approaches supporting the transition to a green energy economy. Particular attention was given to technologies enabling the efficient conversion of waste streams into valuable energy resources, the development of sustainable fuels, and the advancement of thermochemical conversion processes.
As the GIFFT project aims to support the decarbonization of the energy-intensive glass manufacturing industry through the development of fuel-flexible combustion technologies, the project coordinator, Dr. Nerijus Striūgas, was invited to present the latest achievements of the project. His presentation focused on the development of advanced plasma-assisted combustion technology highlighting its potential for sustainable heat generation using hybrid fuel mixtures with particular applications in the industrial glass sector.
