Hoe kan Digital Twin-technologie de Nederlandse maakindustrie helpen om efficiënt energiezuinig en circulair te werken? Met praktijkgericht onderzoek helpt het lectoraat Industriële Digital Twins van de Hogeschool van Amsterdam (HvA) bedrijven om CO2-neutraal te worden en daarmee internaal competitief …

Research into the impact of innovative sustainable energy experiments and demonstrations is crucial to diversifying, scaling up, and accelerating the sustainable energy transition. Although there is vast research into sustainable energy experiments and demonstrations, research literature offers a fragmented …

A significant portion of Dutch infrastructure, including gas, water, and electricity networks, is underground. The lack of clear mapping leads to uncoordinated digging, increasing the risk of damage and labor costs. Current detection methods like probes, sonar, and ground-penetrating radar have limitations, …

While the Municipality of Amsterdam wants to expand the electric vehicle public charging infrastructure to reach carbon-neutral objectives, the Distribution System Operator cannot allow new charging stations where low-voltage transformers are reaching their maximum capacity. To solve this situation, …

This tool streamlines and structures the workflow for generating ISA-PHM files, a new format currently under development to enable the storage of metadata alongside data within a dataset. By simplifying the creation process, making it easier for anyone who wants to use ISA-PHM, and ensuring consistency, …

Background Positive Energy Districts, which incorporate energy planning at the district level, are a pioneering concept for sustainable, smart and climate-neutral urban development. This concept supports creating communities that generate more annual energy than they consume. To this end, integrative …

Urban living labs (ULLs) are experimental governance mechanisms accelerating sustainability transitions in the built environment, yet their governance implications and systemic impact are often under-examined. A comparative analysis of six ULLs is presented with a focus on positive energy districts (PEDs) …

Een van de onderdelen van het TSDCE project, WP3, betreft het meten en een veldtest op locatie. Hierbij wordt in Amsterdam op locatie gemeten, waarbij het vooral gaat om de dynamiek van veranderingen in belasting (bij remmen en optrekken). Het is gelukt om het verloop van de spanning van de bovenleiding …

Positive Energy Districts (PEDs) are a promising approach to urban energy transformation, aiming to optimize local energy systems and deliver environmental, social and economic benefits. However, their effectiveness and justification for investment rely on understanding the additional value they provide …
