The NO-GIZMOS project has shown that decentralized assets in the low-voltage grid can effectively resolve congestion problems at the medium voltage (MV) level. Our pilot in Ansen demonstrated that a community-based and algorithmically driven Virtual Power Plant of nine household batteries can reduce …

Teacher-student interaction is built out of numerous micro-interactions that shape learning and teaching processes. This presentation highlights the use of State Space Grids (SSGs) for visualizing and studying real-time classroom discourse in an intervention targeting professional development. State …

To reduce greenhouse gas emissions, countries around the world are pursuing electrification policies. In residential areas, electrification will increase electricity supply and demand, which is expected to increase grid congestion at a faster rate than grids can be reinforced. Battery energy storage …

This thesis explores how column placement in a semi-sunken parking garage can be optimised to enhance traffic flow, maximise parking capacity, and reliably transfer structural loads from four residential floors above. The project is based on the Sea & City development in Vlissingen, the Netherlands—a …

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, …

Living Labs are vibrant, open innovation ecosystems where research and development take place in real-world settings instead of isolated laboratory environments. Through a structured co-creation process, they position citizens and end-users at the heart of innovation, ensuring that emerging solutions …

Many sub-Saharan countries currently lack reliable electricity infrastructure, particularly in rural areas. Solar mini-grids can help remedy this situation. However, they require effective storage solutions, for which green hydrogen (GH₂) offers a possibility. Establishing green hydrogen as a storage …

As the world transitions toward sustainable energy systems, the integration of digital technologies in energy infrastructure has introduced new cybersecurity challenges. Smart grids, renewable energy networks, and data-driven management systems depend on secure digital communication to ensure stability …
