This research presents a case study exploring the potential for demand side flexibility at a cluster of university buildings. The study investigates the potential of a collection of various electrical devices, excluding heating and cooling systems. With increasing penetration of renewable electricity …

In the Netherlands and some neighbouring European countries, the electric vehicle (EV) charging sector is receiving attention from market regulators. Concerns relating to competitive processes in this developing and rapidly growing sector are being raised. This paper identifies specific markets where …

Summary: A novel Smart Charging strategy, based on low base allowances per charger combined with 1. clustering of chargers on the same part of the grid and 2. dynamic non guaranteed allowance, is presented in this paper. This manner of Smart Charging will allow more than 3 times the amount of chargers …

The COVID-19 lockdowns showed that working from home and conducting meetings online can change mobility patterns and needs substantially. This global pandemic may have also substantially changed mobility patterns on the long-term and therefore, also the need of electric vehicle charging infrastructure. …

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

In this charging plaze energy exchange will be done by a DC microgrid between PV, V2G electric cars and lighting. Control is done autonomous with Droop Rate Control.

We report the detection of tryptophan at sub-ppb levels for a fluorometer based on Fresnel lenses and low-cost electronics. These fluorometers can be used to detect fecal contamination in drinking water, indicated by tryptophan-like fluorescence.

De klimaatverandering dwingt tot een versnelling van de energietransitie. Een stad als Amsterdam heeft hierin hoge ambities. Het lectoraat Energie & Innovatie werkt hieraan mee door technologische interventies te onderzoeken en ontwerpen.Een zeer innovatieve interventie is een energiepositief gebied. …

Positive Energy Districts (PEDs) are potential high-impact climate change mitigation actions towards low carbon or even climate neutral cities. This implies that the energy performance and greenhouse gas emissions of PEDs need to be assessed. To this end, an accounting methodology, metrics, supporting …
