The last hundred years witnessed a massive development of technology for road transportation of individuals and goods. These developments brought freedom to live at distance from work, quick responding emergency services and goods from all over the world available in our shops at competitive prices. …

The objective of an energy management strategy for fuel cell hybrid propulsion systems is to minimize the fuel needed to provide the required power demand. This minimization is defined as an optimization problem. Methods such as dynamic programming numerically solve this optimization problem. Strategies …

Optimization routines for battery, supercap and fuel cell stack in a fuel cell based propulsion system face two problems: the tendency to cycle beating and the necessity to maintain identical amounts of stored energy in battery and supercap at the start and end of the driving cycle used in the simulation. …

The energy efficiency and sustainability of an anaerobic green gas production pathway was evaluated, taking into account five biomass feedstocks, optimization of the green gas production pathway, replacement of current waste management pathways by mitigation, and transport of the feedstocks. Sustainability …

As the Dutch electric vehicle (EV) fleet continues to expand, so will the amount of charging sessions increase. This expanding demand for energy will add on to the already existing strain on the grid, primarily during peak hours on workdays in the early morning and evening. This growing energy demand …

This research has been conducted to analyze the current water production process and see if improvements in terms of energy efficiency is possible by using the optimal configuration for different sailing profiles. Water consumption on cruise vessel is higher than on non-passenger vessels. Freshwater …
