ISMES studi idrogeologici sistemi di monitoraggio modellazione strutture complesse
Analisi rischio sismico del territorio e delle infrastrutture
Tutto il territorio nazionale è ormai classificato come sismico. Ne consegue che ogni struttura o infrastruttura esistente o di futura realizzazione, deve poter resistere al terremoto senza riportare danni strutturali. La valutazione del rischio viene condotta considerando l’interazione tra le tre componenti che definiscono il rischio stesso: la pericolosità, la vulnerabilità e l’esposizione. L’approccio di […]
Water
Power generation plants
Building power plants and running them sustainably requires detailed monitoring campaigns to assess the  health of the main environmental indicators. CESI has the experience and skills necessary to investigate the various environmental sectors affected in the different stages of the life cycle of generation plants. Hydroelectric plants: Thermoelectric plants Offshore wind plants (cable connection)
Air
Continuous emission monitoring
Power plants need regular emission monitoring, in order to verify that they comply with emission limits set by the relevant environmental agencies. With our deep experience in the emission monitoring sector, CESI can monitor gas flue emissions of power plants. Our service portfolio includes:
Natural hazards
Hydrology and Meteorology
ISMES has extensive experience in monitoring hydrological and meteorological data to prevent avalanches or to provide advance warning and prevent damage to structures or disruption to users. ISMES offers the following services:
Natural hazards
Seismic risk
All of Italy is classified as seismically active. Therefore, every piece of infrastructure, new and existing, has to deal with seismic risk. ISMES has extensive experience in se ismic risk assessment of dams, buildings and other structures. ISMES uses both linear and non-linear 2D and 3D models to evaluate the seismic behavior of concrete (arch […]
Natural hazards
River flooding
In recent years, climate change has increased the frequency and intensity of flooding events. The built environment and, therefore, civil engineering must deal with such events and put in place solutions to mitigate their destructive effects on existing structures. ISMES offers the following services: For bridges across rivers the following analyses are carried out: 
Natural hazards
Landslides
Landslides happen when sites with certain soil conditions are hit by  intense rainfall. To define the risk and design proper mitigation measures, ISMES takes the following approach:
Civil Infrastructure
Buildings
ISMES has extensive expertise in the seismic analysis of buildings. We analyze existing structures to increase their performance under seismic loads, looking at:
Water Infrastructure
Irrigation
As water scarcity increases, it is imperative that water is used as efficiently as possible. Irrigation is a key activity where water must be used sustainably. ISMES, our specialist civil engineering unit, supports our clients with hydrological studies that help to define how to use water efficiently and reduce water waste. The range of expertise […]
Water Infrastructure
Water Distribution infrastructures
Water is the most important natural resource for life on earth and as the climate changes, it is vital that we use water as efficiently as possible and minimize water waste. Through the technical expertise of ISMES, CESI’s specialist civil engineering unit, we can support clients  with studies of leakages in water distribution networks and […]
Water Infrastructure
Dam Monitoring and Dam Inspections
Hydropower is a type of renewable energy derived from flowing water. There are two different types of hydropower plant – those with dams and reservoirs, or ‘run of river’ systems. Hydropower dams with large reservoirs can store water over short or long periods to meet peak demand. Run of river facilities produce power at a smaller […]
Conventional PP, Industrial & Oil&gas
Oil&Gas Infrastructures
CESI has developed a unique specialized service portfolio to support oil and gas companies in different areas, including:
Storage & E-mobility
Virtual Power Plants and Aggregators
A Virtual Power Plant (VPP) is a network of decentralized, medium-scale power generating units such as wind farms, solar parks, and combined heat and power (CHP) units, as well as flexible power resources such as EVs, controllable loads and storage systems. The interconnected units are dispatched through the network operation center of the Virtual Power […]
Storage & E-mobility
Storage infrastructures
Electrical power systems around the world are changing significantly and swiftly thanks to an energy transition that is mainly driven by the rapid increase of renewable energy sources (RES) and the evolution of generation and transmission technologies. Such changes require an innovative framework at system level to cope with emerging challenges and to take advantage […]
Renewables & Green Hydrogen
Green Hydrogen
Hydrogen has been used for more than a century in industrial processes including the chemicals sector, refining, thermal treatments, cooling of generators, as a propellant fuel and in the food industry. To date, hydrogen has been produced mainly through steam methane reforming of natural gas. To reach net-zero emissions requires decarbonised hydrogen production. This can […]
Renewables & Green Hydrogen
On-shore and Off-shore Wind
Wind energy will lead the way in the transformation of the global electricity sector. By 2050, there could be  more than 5,000 GW of installed wind capacity, according to the International Renewable Energy Agency [1], generating more than 35% of total electricity supply. The evolution of the wind industry has been rapid and remarkable, allowing […]
Renewables & Green Hydrogen
Solar
Solar PV is one of the most mature, commercially competitive and fastest-growing renewable energy technologies. Its cumulative installed capacity will rise to 8,519 GW by 2050, becoming the second biggest renewable energy source after wind. The challenges for grid-connected and stand-alone PV plants range from the availability of reliable energy yield assessments, sustainable design and […]
Transmission & Distribution
SCADA and Control Centers
CESI has vast experience in supporting the implementation of full scale state-of-the-art SCADA, EMS and telecommunication systems that safely and reliably monitor and manage electrical networks and energy exchanges in interconnection systems. We have built up this experience over many years in Italy and around the world, acting as technical consultants to Transmission System Operators […]
Monitoring & Diagnostic
Compliance
Companies face a growing list of environmental rules and regulations, both local and national, that they must comply with. CESI’s services include:
Studies & Permitting
Environmental studies
CESI has long experience in environmental studies and permitting issues. We oversee complex projects, identifying site-specific constraints and assessing technology alternatives and their environmental impacts. This includes pre-operation evaluations of potential impacts, the mitigation required and infrastructure monitoring. We work with clients during the entire authorization process, drawing on our extensive experience of environmental and […]
