Simulation of the Dutch electricity system: A software expansion for the Illuminator

The aim of this report is to discuss the design of the software that creates a simulation for the national electricity grid level of the Netherlands. This is done by further developing the open-source energy system integration development kit called the Illuminator. Where the goal of this software is to create an extra case, add a Graphical User...

An Energy-Harvesting Facade Optimization System for Built Environments

Daylighting is the immediate exploitation of solar energy in the form of nat-<br/>ural lighting and plays an integral role in minimizing the energy footprint<br/>of a building. Smart daylighting enables us to design buildings that provide<br/>comfort and energy savings.<br/><br/>This work proposes a dynamic facade system for buildings which aims...
