Development of the Machine Learning-Based Approach to Access Occupancy Information Through Indoor CO2 Data: for Demand-Driven Building Heating Energy Management

Demand driven building energy management system has gained significant interest in recent years. In order to provide insights for the demand driven building heating energy management at IDE building, TU Delft, this research develops an approach to access real time occupancy information by applying supervised machine learning (ML) classification...

High efficiency IBC c-Si solar cells with poly-Si passivating contacts

Crystalline silicon (c-Si) solar cells based on the polycrystalline silicon (poly-Si) passivating contact is becoming one of the most promising solar cell structures that enable high efficiency due to the minimization of metal contact recombination. The interdigitated back contact (IBC) crystalline silicon (c-Si) solar cells based on poly-Si...

Design and Feasibility of Thin-film on Landfills: Case study of VBM landfill in Maasvlakte, Rotterdam

Solar landfills are an emerging and promising concept in which PV systems are installed on closed landfills to combine renewable energy production with efficient use of contaminated land. This study focuses on such an application on the VBM (Verwerking Bedrijfsafvalstoffen Maasvlakte) landfill in Maasvlakte, Rotterdam. The PAS (PV Afdichting op...

Design of Multilevel Modular Converter: A Mathematical Model in MATLAB Simulink

The development of various renewable energy generation techniques and distributed generation of electricity due to the increased global energy needs, a robust transmission system for the transfer of power from high generation regions to high demand regions over long distances is the need of the hour. In order to achieve the successful...

Impact of Large Amounts of Photovoltaic Installations in Low-Voltage Networks on Power System Stability During Transmission System Faults: A German Case Study

It is expected that the share of renewable energy sources will increase to meet rising demand. One of the challenges integrating this distributed generation (DG) into the power system is the behaviour of low voltage connected DG in case of a transmission system fault. This research aims to give recommendations for low voltage (LV) grid codes to...

Primary Frequency Response by MTDC Offshore Grids

The preferred technology for connecting far from shore offshore wind plants to the onshore AC power system is the voltage-source converter based high voltage direct current (VSC-HVDC) transmission system. There is a large number of advantages, namely, the decoupled active and reactive power control, the capability to reverse power flows without...
