Building energy performance is largely determined during the early conceptual design stages. However, energy evaluation is often postponed until after key architectural decisions—such as massing and façade configuration—have been finalized, limiting opportunities for meaningful optimization. This study …

Small wind turbines face significant challenges in achieving commercial viability due to lower efficiency and higher energy costs compared to utility-scale systems and competing renewable technologies. Counter-rotating dual-rotor wind turbines (CR-DRWTs) with dual-rotational armature configurations offer …

In dit hoofdstuk verkennen we regionale verschillen in leven lang ontwikkelen. We stellen ons de vraag of regionale verschillen in LLO in Nederland voorkomen en zo ja, hoe deze verschillen zijn te verklaren.
