The immediate impact of innovative technologies
We have been burning fossil fuels for centuries, leading to incredible transportation and technology advancements. High energy density and convenience to store, transport & use have driven the growth of fossil fuel. However, the environmental impact of using fossil fuels is apparent to everyone. But we have yet to find a good substitute for fossil fuel in terms of availability and fitness to purpose.
Reinventing new ways to decarbonise hard-to-abate sectors
We are a leader in pioneering innovative technologies to reduce GHG and toxic emissions. Every day we search for new and better solutions and approaches. We try, we fail, we try again – and we succeed. Because every day, the concentrations of pollutants increase on our planet. And until they decrease, we will be here to fight climate change. Our two research departments are based in Switzerland, at the heart of the world's most innovative economy.
On the pathway to Net-Zero
Climate change doesn't stop, so we won't either. We aim to continuously find new solutions and, at the same time, develop and deploy existing technology further. And even further. Ultimately, this effort will contribute to reaching net-zero.
Innovating for Sustainability: Climate Tech Research
Collaboration and innovation are critical in the fight against climate change, and technical publications offer a valuable avenue for sharing knowledge and finding impactful solutions. At Daphne, we recognize the importance of advancing the field of climate technology and contributing to the body of scientific knowledge. Our comprehensive research publications are aimed at achieving this goal. By writing and contributing to technical whitepapers and publications, researchers, innovators, and a wide range of stakeholders can join us in mitigating the impacts of climate change and working towards a sustainable future.
Unlocking Sustainable Energy Solutions Together
At Daphne Technology, our success is powered by a diverse and experienced team dedicated to pioneering sustainable climate solutions for the most challenging industrial sectors. Together, we forge ahead with dedication and purpose, working collaboratively to create and deliver solutions that drive an economically sustainable energy transition. Our team is at the forefront of the clean energy revolution. Meet Our Team!
Awards & Recognitions
We are proud that our sustainability initiatives have contributed to several awards and recognitions over the years. The awards recognise our commitment to fulfilling our purpose to protect the environment by developing and integrating innovative technology that removes greenhouse gases and toxic emissions. At Daphne Technology, we strive for excellence and are enormously grateful every time our team's extraordinary work is recognised by leading, independent organisations, some of which you can see here.
Protecting the planet
Maritime
The maritime industry accounts for 90% of global transport, consisting of many actors ranging from ports and shipping companies to global regulatory bodies. The maritime industry moves goods at the cheapest rate and lowest relative carbon footprint but is still responsible for around 3% of global GHG emissions. Industry's carbon footprints have been rising throughout history and are projected to increase from 90% to 130% of 2008 emissions by 2050.

Transitioning from startup to scaleup; CCO Frode Helland-Evebø
Daphne Technology works across borders and industries. Tackling climate change is a global challenge. To achieve Net-Zero by 2050, we need determination and strong collaboration around the globe. So Daphne turns to Norway as its second home, a world leader in developing low- and zero-emission solutions.
Regulation promotes technological innovation to address climate change
By 2050, the International Energy Agency (IEA) believes that almost half the toxic emissions reductions will come from technologies currently at the demonstration or prototype phase. Thus, investing today in technological innovations is a must to meet the net-zero goals of the future.
Net Zero by 2050
2010-2019 was the warmest decade ever recorded, disrupting national economies and affecting lives. To mitigate climate change, global warming must be reduced and toxic emissions prevented. The Paris Agreement adopted by 196 parties in 2015, and the IMO's GHG strategy leads the way in the transition towards net-zero industries. The Paris Agreement and the IMO go hand in hand to Net Zero by 2050, aiming to hand over a green planet to future generations.
