The combined CO2 reduction potential is dependent on the deployment sequence. Deployment of CO2 mitigation measures opens and closes deployment paths. Conservative estimates do not represent the potential of heat integration measures. Approaches (e.g. MACC) are not fit for the assessment of heat integration …

Nowadays, Nature-Based Solutions (NBSs) are developing as innovative multifunctional tools to maximize urban ecosystem services such as storm water preservation, reduction of runoff and flood protection, groundwater pollution prevention, biodiversity enhancement, and microclimate control. Gdańsk is one …

Onderzoek met publieke en particuliere partijen, door vijf hogescholen in tien wijken, heeft geresulteerd in nieuwe kennis over meten, beleven en doen ten aanzien van klimaatadaptie. Klimaatadaptatie blijkt nog beperkt te leven onder inwoners. Toch eindigde dit onderzoek met honderden concrete oplossingen …

The liveability of cities worldwide is under threat by the predicted increase in intensity and frequency of heatwaves and the absence of a clear spatial overview of where action to address this. Heat stress impairs vital urban functions (Böcker and Thorsson 2014), hits the local economy (Evers et al. …

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 …

Research Questions • What are the characteristics of vulnerable populations in The Hague? • What are their needs in order to adapt to heatwaves, and how do they cope? • What are existing sustainable solutions for protecting vulnerable populations? • How can the municipality of The Hague increase urban …

Een lespakket waarin kinderen tussen de 10 en 12 uitleg krijgen over klimaatverandering en -adaptatie en hier een aantal weken lang via opdrachten mee aan de slag gaan

Two carbon-neutral communities are looking at smart technical solutions to guarantee agreen energy transition with increasing proportions of local renewable energy. More efficientintegrated energy solutions for electricity, heat, water, waste, and transportationinfrastructure must be created to achieve …

Several carbon-neutral towns are investigating novel technological solutions to enable a green energy transition that incorporates increasing proportions of locally generated energy. More efficient integrated energy solutions for electricity, heat, water, waste, and transportation infrastructure must …

Research has been done on how the implementation of heat pumps in dwellings could have the maximum impact on energy savings.
