Correljé, A. (author), Pesch, U. (author), Cuppen, Eefje (author)In this paper, we take inspiration from original institutional economics (OIE) as an approach to study value change within the highly complex assembly of sociotechnical transformations that make up the energy transition. OIE is examined here as a suitable perspective, as it combines Dewey’s pragmatist philosophy and a methodological...journal article 2022

Stolper, Louis Cornelis (author), Bergsma, J.M. (author), Pruyn, J.F.J. (author)The energy transition of Dutch shipping is a complex gradual process due to the variety in vessels, cost and lifetime of assets, uncertainty, additional costs of climate-neutral alternatives and required regulatory changes. This paper aims to create a holistic overview of both the transition barriers and enablers. A focus is placed on the...journal article 2022

(author), Alpagut, Beril (author), Kort, Joke (author), Tjahja, Cyril (author), Smit, Sander (author)It is commonly assumed by the projects demonstrating concepts for positive energy districts in cities across Europe that citizens want and need to be involved in the development of these concepts as an essential condition for positive energy districts to be deployed successfully and to achieve the expected societal goals. Six different...journal article 2022

Liu, Zhengxuan (author), Sun, Ying (author), Xing, Chaojie (author), Liu, Jia (author), He, Yingdong (author), Zhou, Yuekuan (author), Zhang, Guoqiang (author)The vigorous expansion of renewable energy as a substitute for fossil energy is the predominant route of action to achieve worldwide carbon neutrality. However, clean energy supplies in multi-energy building districts are still at the preliminary stages for energy paradigm transitions. In particular, technologies and methodologies for large...review 2022

Beyond promises: Realities of climate finance justice and energy transitions in Asia and the PacificAnantharajah, Kirsty (author), Setyowati, A.B. (author)Climate change is already having substantial adverse impacts across the globe, and these are projected to worsen dramatically in years to come without rapid and far-reaching measures to transition to low carbon development. Crucially, massive financial investment will be necessary to fast track a low carbon transition and the level of finance...journal article 2022

(author)For efficient operation of heating and cooling grids, underground thermal energy storage (UTES) can be a key element. This is due to its ability to seasonally store heat or cold addressing the large mismatch between supply and demand. This technology is already available and there are many operational examples, both within and outside a...conference paper 2022

Dhas, Sanchita (author)This thesis aims to develop an energy transition scenario for the cement industry using a simulation model that models energy flows to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050. The model's decarbonisation pathways are constructed with assumptions about the country's socio-economic conditions, energy efficiency, fuel share, and technology share. The...master thesis 2021

Jansen, Floris (author)It’s beneficial to involve residents in the design of the renovation plans of their own homes. This leads to more energy efficient, healthy and comfortable homes due to the removal of mismatches between the resident and their home. It also results in an easier approval process thanks to the increased ownership and a more fair process. I propose...master thesis 2021

Desideri Perea, Michela (author)The Dutch energy-intensive industry relies heavily on fossil-fuelled energy sources for production processes, being responsible for one third of CO2 emissions in the Netherlands. The road to CO2 neutrality by 2050 requires a massive transformation of the industrial sector: sustainable supply and (re-)use of industrial heat, CO2 capture and...master thesis 2021

ten Caat, P.N. (author), Graamans, L.J.A. (author), Tenpierik, M.J. (author), van den Dobbelsteen, A.A.J.F. (author)The municipality of Amsterdam has set stringent carbon emission reduction targets: 55% by 2030 and 95% by 2050 for the entire metropolitan area. One of the key strategies to achieve these goals entails a disconnection of all households from the natural gas supply by 2040 and connecting them to the existing city-wide heat grid. This paper aims to...journal article 2021
