Dit rapport is deel I van twee delen waarin de veiligheidsnormen worden onderzocht die van toepassing zijn op waterstoftoepassingen. In deel I wordt ingegaan op de vraag welke normen hoofdzakelijk van toepassing zijn op waterstoftankstations, brandstofcel technologieën en (kleine) waterstof opslag die …

To broaden the application of biomethanation for energy storage and renewable integration, this study investigates the performance of a trickle-bed reactor (TBR) for hydrogen (H2) utilisation in biogas upgrading, using both pure Carbon dioxide (CO2) and biogas-derived CO2 as substrates for methane (CH4) …

Efficient hydrogen (H2) storage remains a major challenge for clean energy applications. This study presents an AI-driven methodology to optimize H2 storage in porous carbon adsorbents. A comprehensive dataset of 917 literature-derived entries was used to develop two machine learning models: Random Forest …

Power-to-X technologies play a crucial role in accelerating the energy and material transition. A key opportunity lies in integrating these systems with existing bio-based infrastructures such as anaerobic digesters, providing a reliable source of biogenic carbon. Developing effective Power-to-Methanol …

The transition towards a sustainable and competitive European economy requires new analytical and decision-support frameworks capable of integrating industrial innovation, environmental constraints, and policy governance. This concept note introduces a multi-level approach to understanding the role of …

Methane, the primary component of natural gas, emits less carbon dioxide than other petroleum-based fuels but faces challenges in efficient storage and transportation. Advanced adsorption materials provide a safe and cost-effective solution, with metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) emerging as promising …

In the SERENE project, innovations to help improve integrated energy systems in local communities are developed. A key objective is to increase local self-consumption, particularly during peak solar production hours. These innovations are tested and validated in The Aardehuizen community, a neighbourhood …

Traditional non-linear models offer Dutch municipalities limited insight into the social behaviour of local stakeholders, even though this behaviour largely determines the success of policies in complex sociotechnical systems. This study addresses the following research question: “How can an agent-based …

The growing adoption of residential and community-based photovoltaics (PV) have raised concerns about grid congestion and transformer overload. This paper evaluates three strategies for PV–battery integration in decentralised energy communities using real network and residential data to address these …

This century, greenhouse gas emissions such as carbon dioxide, methane and nitrogen oxides must be significantly reduced. Greenhouse gases absorb and emit infrared radiation that contributes to global warming, which can lead to irreversible negative consequences for humans and the environment. Greenhouse …
