Provincie, kennisinstellingen en bedrijfsleven steken handen ineen en bieden een offshore wind leergang aan.De offshore wind sector biedt enorme innovatieve kansen en levert veel directe werkgelegenheid aan onze regio. De beschikbaarheid van goed personeel is daarvoor noodzakelijk maar dit blijkt een …

This research proposes new structural lay-outs for large wind turbine blades. The lay-outs were found by an optimisation method where the aerodynamics of wind turbine blades was combined with the structural model of the blade, formulated in a corotational framework. The aeroelastic blade loads were calculated …

At the Lunchcolloquim of the TU in Delft Dr. Schepers talked about the International Small Wind Turbine Contest (ISWTC) and the Energy transition centre (Entrance) in Groningen.

In this second guest-lecture at the TU in Delft the point of focus was the technical aspects of wind turbines and extracting energy from wind.

In this guest-lecture several aspects of wind energy were discussed, in particular the present situation in the Netherlands. Additionally upcoming challenges and future scenarios were included.

In this guest-lecture several aspects of wind energy were discussed, in particular the present situation in the Netherlands. Additionally the social-economic side of wind energy and technical design were part of the lecture.

The government of Ukraine has adopted the Renewable Energy Directive (RED) with clear goals and a roadmap to facilitate its energy transition towards renewable sources. This is done because of both climate concerns as well as reasons related to Ukraine’s foreign policy which led the government to decide …

Tijdens het Transfuture Festival op het Entrance terrein van het Zernike werden een aantal presentaties gegeven over onderzoeksprojecten van het CoE-Energy. De verschillende onderzoeksprojecten werden gepresenteerd door de drie aanwezige medewerkers.

Kunstmest voor de velden en brandstof voor landbouwvoertuigen zijn belangrijke kostenposten voor de landbouw. Kunstmest en dieselbrandstof zijn energie-intensieve producten en daarmee ook een belangrijke bron van CO2 emissies vanuit de landbouw. Technologie voor hernieuwbare energie zoals zonne- en wind …

Wind and solar power generation will continue to grow in the energy supply of the future, but its inherent variability (intermittency) requires appropriate energy systems for storing and using power. Storage of possibly temporary excess of power as methane from hydrogen gas and carbon dioxide is a promising …
