This paper investigates smart charging strategies for battery-electric construction machinery (non-road mobile machinery, NRMM) through a case study of a large-scale housing project in The Hague, Netherlands. The study develops a methodology to estimate energy demands and simulate charging profiles during …

As urban environments increasingly adopt automated technologies for municipal enforcement, this paper interrogates the erosion of human judgment, discretion, and interaction in public space governance. Drawing on participatory design workshops within the “Human Values for Smarter Cities” project, the …

While the Municipality of Amsterdam wants to expand the electric vehicle public charging infrastructure to reach carbon-neutral objectives, the Distribution System Operator cannot allow new charging stations where low-voltage transformers are reaching their maximum capacity. To solve this situation, …

Resultaten van het project TSDCE - van Tractiesysteem naar Slim DC Elektriciteitsnet.

Municipalities often collaborate with other stakeholders in smart city projects to develop and implement technological innovations to address complex urban issues. We propose the shared portfolio approach as an alternative way of collaborating, because we have identified possible limitations when the …

We hebben er steeds meer mee te maken: technologie in openbare ruimtes. Niet iedereen is daar altijd blij mee. Om lokale bestuurders te helpen besluiten te nemen waar ook burgers achter staan, is Fontys een grootschalig onderzoek gestart in zes Nederlandse steden. “Dit is ongekend”, zegt Bart Wernaart, …

This report relates to the Horizon 2020 project entitled ‘Making City’. The report was conducted by the Hanze University of Applied Sciences to the benefit of the Municipality of Groningen and other consortium partners in the Making City project and addresses the legal impediments that may arise when …

City governments increasingly experiment with civic participation in the procurement and the realization of smart city technologies in order to improve the incorporation of human values. In this paper, a model is proposed with the level of participation, the continuity of participation and the extent …

Electric vehicles have penetrated the Dutch market, which increases the potential for decreased local emissions, the use and storage of sustainable energy, and the roll-out and use of electric car-sharing business models. This development also raises new potential issues such as increased electricity …
