A delegation of the Amsterdam Harbor Company came to Groningen to attend a presentation which was part of their visit to Entrance. Jacques Dam and Juliana Montoya Cardona took the lead in presenting their research in the role of LNG in Hybrid Energy Networks.

In the past 5 years Electric Car use has grown rapidly, almost doubling each year. To provide adequate charging infrastructure it is necessary to model the demand. In this paper we model the distribution of charging demand in the city of Amsterdam using a Cross-Nested Logit Model with socio-demographic …

The future energy system could benefit from the integration of independent gas, heat and electricity infrastructures. Such a hybrid energy network could support the increase of intermittent renewable energy sources by offering increased operational flexibility. Nowadays, the expectations on Natural Gas …

Symbiotic Urban Agriculture Networks (SUANs) are a specific class of symbiotic networks that intend to close material and energy loops from cities and urban agriculture. Private and public stakeholders in SUANs face difficulties in the implementation of technological and organisational design interventions …

This report has been established within the Flexiheat project. Flexiheat has focused on increasing flexibility in district heating systems. The intelligent district heating network is a dynamic network: an open network where different waste heat and renewable energy sources are connected, that has multiple …

Global awareness on energy consumption and the environmental impacts of fossil fuels boost actions and create more supportive policies towards sustainable energy systems, in the last energy outlook, by the International Energy Agency, it was forecasted totals of 3600 GW from 2016 to 2040 of global deployment …

BACKGROUND: In The Netherlands, one out of six Dutch employees has informal care tasks; in the hospital and healthcare sector, this ratio is one out of four workers. Informal carers experience problems with the combination of work and informal care. In particular, they have problems with the burden of …

The transformation from the current energy system to a decentralized renewable energy system requires the transformation of communities into energy neutral or even energy producing communities. Increasingly, citizens become 'prosumers' and pool their resources to start a local energy initiative. In this …

The aim of this dissertation is to research if and how Lithuania’s LNG terminal could be a method to ensure energy security within the European Union. Lithuania’s energy position has been a very vulnerable one, and used to import 100% of its gas supply from Russia’s state monopoly Gazprom. In order to …
