A short introduction

Presentatie van de cursus Systeemintegratie van de NEC.

Decentralised renewable energy production in the form of fuels or electricity can have large scale deployment in future energy systems, but the feasibility needs to be assessed. The novelty of this paper is in the design and implementation of a mixed integer linear programming optimisation model to minimise …

In Vlissingen, the municipality wants to make a selected neighbourhood natural gas-free. In order to support this, they have been granted a subsidy. There are many important stakeholders in this project such as the housing corporation l’Escaut which owns most of the houses in the neighbourhood. All of …

The neighborhood of Houtlaan in Assen, the Netherlands, has ambitious targets for reducing the neighborhood’s carbon emissions and increasing their production of their own, sustainable energy. Specifically, they wish to increase the percentage of houses with a heat pump, electric vehicle (EV) and solar …

The Johan Cruijff ArenA (JC ArenA) is a big events location in Amsterdam, where national and international football matches, concerts and music festivals take place for up to 68,000 visitors. The JC ArenA is already one of the most sustainable, multi-functional stadia in the world and is realizing even …

The Netherlands is aiming for the roll-out of more solar PV. However like many densely populated countries, the country is running into issues of lack of space. Opportunities around infrastructural works like highways provide space without compromising the landscape. Examples of this double use are already …

The aim of this research was to find out in how far the Netherlands could learn from Sweden regarding the use of manure, in order to create awareness within the equine sector on sustainable solutions. The number of horses in Europe exceeds 5 million and keeps increasing, therefore contributes to greenhouse …

Power-to-gas technologies are considered to be part of the future energy sys- tem, but their viability and applicability need to be assessed. Therefore, models for the viability of farm-scale bio-power-to-methane supply chains to produce green gas were analysed in terms of levelised cost of energy, energy …

New technologies or approaches are being widely developed and proposed to be deployed in real energy systems to improve desired objectives; however, supporting decision making processes to select best solutions in terms of performance and efficiently following cost-benefit analysis require some sort …
