van den Berg, Paulien (author)The dynamic and fast-changing environment brings challenges for generating long-term visions of the future; scenarios. Outdated scenarios will result in future pathways that are no longer achievable and therefore reduces their relevance and usefulness for making decisions. As some uncertainty is resolved over time, while other uncertainties...master thesis 2019

Kreulen, Kurt (author)The need for an energy transition has arisen in response to a growing discrepancy between (A) what people find important or valuable in life, and (B) the performance of – or value delivered by – the physical energy system. Since the physical energy system has not changed much in recent decades, it is clear that changes in people’s values are...master thesis 2019

Versloot, Nicolai (author)Introduction. To contribute to the reduction of global warming, The Netherlands signed the Paris Agreement on 12-12-2015, which dictates that in 2030, a reduction of 55% in CO¬2 emissions compared to 1990 must be achieved (P. Boot et al., 2016; Sociaal-Economische Raad, 2013). To meet these goals, several Dutch regions started their Regional...master thesis 2019

van Stam, Martijn (author)Heat services are essential to the Dutch society. Currently, earthquakes in Groningen and CO2-emission reduction goals accelerate the heat transition. This research explores the effects of this transition using an energy justice framework, answering the following research question: “What is the impact of the transition from natural gas heat...master thesis 2019

Luijt, Tim (author)There is a clear mismatch between the national ambition to reach a natural gas-free housing stock and the current ability of owner-occupiers to meet this ambition. This research aims to help resolve this mismatch between the national ambition and the opportunities for households to act in the gas-free transition. To do so, missing information is...master thesis 2019

Pollux, Jerry (author)Hydrogen is known for a variety of applications and is often associated with The Energy Transition. This thesis aims to explore the possibilities of applying hydrogen as a seasonal buffer of renewable energy. The research is applied to the case study Floriade, which is a neighborhood currently under development and set to be completed in 2022....master thesis 2019

Kraan, O.D.E. (author), Dalderop, Steven (author), Kramer, G.J. (author), Nikolic, I. (author)Understanding the possible transition pathways of the energy system requires the integration of human behaviour in energy system models. In order to model the influence of actor behaviour we have developed ACT (Agent-Based Model of Critical Transitions), an agent-based model inspired by an existing conceptualisation of critical transitions....journal article 2019

Milchram, C. (author), Märker, Carolin (author), Hake, Jürgen Friedrich (author)In efforts to mitigate climate change, energy systems are undergoing a profound transition towards low-carbon systems. This transition does not only involve changes in energy technologies but importantly it is shaped and incentivized by changes in the rules and regulations that govern energy markets. It is a normative transition, focused at...journal article 2019

Scholten, D.J. (author)Renewable energy is the energy of the future – plentiful and ubiquitous. Technological advances and economies of scale are bringing down prices, whereas fossil and nuclear are increasingly uncompetitive. Here, the Green European Journal presents in numbers how energy systems will evolve over the decades to come, while Daniel Scholten traces the...journal article 2019

Kraan, Oscar (author), Chappin, E.J.L. (author), Kramer, Gert Jan (author), Nikolic, I. (author)Transparent, consistent accounting of climate-related energy targets is a fundamental building block to the architecture of international climate agreements. Many of these climate targets focus on the transition of the energy system which has led to the development of various energy transition scenarios. Now that fossil resources are being...journal article 2019
