BNW is a software and consultancy company established in 2014. We assist our customers in assessing techno-economic and environmental viability of new opportunities in the circular economy and fast changing energy markets. We apply both commercial softwar and proprietary software, depending on the issue at hand. Our proprietary software suite is dedicated to assessment of energy technologies and hybrid energy systems by an extended Levelized Cost of Energy (LCOE) methodology, and we have also recently developed an investment analysis module to assess the economic viability of industrial processes in a lifecycle perspective, including impact of CO2-e emissions and emission costs. This module will be instrumental in our work in SisAl Pilot. BNW was founded by and is led by Dr. Torstein Haarberg.
