In the Netherlands, energy cooperatives are increasingly active in the production of renewable energy. Many cooperatives have concrete plans to invest in energy projects, such as solar fields and wind turbines. Unfortunately, in the coming years there will hardly be any room for such projects in the …

This paper proposes a Hybrid Microgrid (HμG) model including distributed generation (DG) and a hydrogen-based storage system, controlled through a tailored control strategy. The HμG is composed of three DG units, two of them supplied by solar and wind sources, and the latter one based on the exploitation …

De bijvangst van ondermaatse grijze garnalen (Crangon crangon) vormt een probleem voor de garnalenvisserij in de kustzones van Nederland, Duitsland en Denemarken, die voornamelijk vist in beschermde gebieden. De grote visserijdruk op ondermaatse garnaal heeft geleid tot verschillende problemen, waaronder …

Industrial control systems are essential for the functioning of our society since they control our electricity, water, agriculture, health, communication, transportation, emergency service and financial service. In the digital age of big data and data analytics these so-called critical infrastructures …

The need to reduce carbon emissions calls for more use of renewable generation, particularly distributed resources. The intermittency of renewable generation, and concerns about energy security, require us to become more independent of central grid operation by use of local or regional (micro-grid) electricity …

Lech Bialek van Hanzehogeschool Groningen presenteerde begin september aan Netbeheer Nederland. Het doel hiervan was om te informeren over het Flexigrow Project en de voorlopige resultaten hiervan en aanbevelingen die hij op basis hiervan kon doen aan het Netbeheer.

The course aims to enhance understanding of key topics related to energy transition and to contribute to building new capacities for promoting sustainable energy systems for climate resilient industry, especially in the context of emerging economies.Some 25 professionals from developing countries will …

Biogas infrastructure from farm-scale to regional scale, line-pack storage in biogas grids. The number of local and regional initiatives encouraging the production and use of regional produced energy grows. In these new developments biogas can play a role, as a producer of energy, but also in balancing …

The volume of biogas produced in agricultural areas is expected to increase in coming years. An increasing number of local and regional initiatives show a growing interest in decentralized energy production, wherein biogas can play a role. Biogas transport from production sites to user, i.e. a CHP, boiler …
