Many sub-Saharan countries currently lack reliable electricity infrastructure, particularly in rural areas. Solar mini-grids can help remedy this situation. However, they require effective storage solutions, for which green hydrogen (GH₂) offers a possibility. Establishing green hydrogen as a storage …

As the world transitions toward sustainable energy systems, the integration of digital technologies in energy infrastructure has introduced new cybersecurity challenges. Smart grids, renewable energy networks, and data-driven management systems depend on secure digital communication to ensure stability …

The University of Twente, Saxion University of Applied Sciences, ROC of Twente (vocational education), centre of expertise TechYourFuture and H2Hub Twente, in which various regional hydrogen interested corporations, like Demcon, VDL, HyMatters, KIWA, Cogas, Powerspex and Waterschap Vechtstromen, are …

"The integration of e-mobility into the energy mix plays a crucial role in reducing CO₂ emissions, as transportation remains one of the largest contributors to global greenhouse gas output. By addressing urban mobility challenges and optimizing electric vehicle systems, this teaching concept links technical …

The accelerating transition toward renewable energy is reshaping labour markets and placing unprecedented demands on education systems. While existing didactical approaches in energy education, such as project-based or simulation-based learning, strengthen technical skills, they often fall short in preparing …

The energy transition requires engineers who can reason about complex renewable energy systems, diagnose faults, and work collaboratively in dynamic environments. Problem-Based Learning (PBL) is widely recognized for supporting such competencies, yet many engineering courses lack authentic contexts that …

A modified genetic algorithm (MGA) optimization procedure, alongside time series machine learning (ML) classifiers, is proposed to minimize handovers in a digital twin-based visible light communication (VLC) system. Frequent handovers have a direct impact on the overall performance of the VLC system …

Reliability is a constraint of low-power wireless connectivity, commonly addressed by the deployment of mesh topology. Accordingly, power consumption becomes a major concern during the design and implementation of such networks. Thus, a mono-objective optimization was implemented in this work to decrease …

Light profoundly impacts many aspects of human physiology and behaviour, including the synchronization of the circadian clock, the production of melatonin, and cognition. These effects of light, termed the non-visual effects of light, have been primarily investigated in laboratory settings, where light …
