Gonzalez Suarez, Fernando (author)
The energy transition towards a fossil fuel free society presents ambitious challenges ahead. The highly potential renewable energy sources are becoming competitive and increasingly adopted for power generation, while for sectors such as residential, industrial or transportation still solutions have to be found. Sector coupling and energy...

To reach the goals of the European Green Deal (CO2 emission reduction of 55% by 2030 and climate neutral by 2050), North-Western Europe has to import sustainable energy as locally produced renewable energy will not be sufficient to meet the total demand. This will be realised by importing green hydrogen from areas with a surplus of renewable...

The International Maritime Organisation (IMO) has set the goal to reduce the total annual greenhouse gas emissions from international shipping by at least 50% by 2050 compared to 2008. For this reason, shipowners will have to innovate the drive-trains and energy systems of their vessels to reduce harmfull emissions. To achieve this goal,...

The Sines H2 Hub aims to take advantage of Portugal’s solar resources and push for a green hydrogen hub centred in Sines. To do so, a 1GW electrolyser is expected to be built by 2030. The gas produced, which will have the same production profile as the solar irradiance, can be injected in the gas grid, distributed by truck or shipped to the...

In a world where electricity demands are progressively growing along with the worsening climate crisis, it is essential to conduct research and build systems that can meet this demand in a sustainable, reliable and cost effective manner. The building sector accounts for nearly 40% of greenhouse gas emissions in the EU, this is primarily due to...

Although the Dutch energy supply is gradually progressing from fossil fuels to renewable energy sources, the consequences for the grid are becoming increasingly evident. Meanwhile, the gas extraction from the Groningen natural gas reserve is de- clining as the induced earthquakes in the northern Netherlands persist. Hydrogen, as a flexible...

Robbertsen, Niels (author)
This research aims to design and analyse possible system configurations for a system in which wind energy from a Dutch wind farm, supplemented with electricity from the grid, is utilized to produce green hydrogen using an electrolyser, including options for transport of hydrogen to the consumer, and to perform an economic analysis on these...

Heath, Edward (author)
The need for sustainable practises in all walks of society are more pressing than ever, with the effects of climate change being felt worldwide. Furthermore, the increasing share of variable and decentralised power generators coupled with the growing electricity demands from electric vehicles (EVs) at irregular times is placing unprecedented...

The Dutch Government is picking up the pace in the energy transition. However, the expansion of wind generation is facing congestion challenges, and the decarbonization of household heating and agricultural mobility proves that electrification is not always an option. These challenges occur together in rural areas like Oudeschip. <br/>Hydrogen...

To comply with the 2020 targets for reducing greenhouse gas GHG emissions, the government of the Netherlands ordered to close the coal-fired power plant at Hemweg 8 by the end of the year 2019 and Vattenfall aims to utilise this valuable location in the harbour of Amsterdam for production of green hydrogen and other renewable alternatives. The...

Tiktak, Joris (author)
In an effort to replace fossil fuels by more sustainable solutions, the demand for green hydrogen hasgrown significantly over the last few years. This has raised the interest in electrolysis and has boostedits development. Water electrolysis produces hydrogen and oxygen from water using direct current,nowadays often with an electrochemical...

The focus of this investigation is the location, sizing and performance of a Hydrogen Fueling Station (HFS) in The Netherlands in 2030. The transportation sector is one of the main air pollution sources, reaching 17% of the total emissions from The Netherlands in 2015. By promoting zero emission vehicles, like Fuel Cell Electric Vehicles (FCEVs)...

In the energy transition the expansion of the amount of renewable energy resources requires new methods for the design of energy systems. To deal with intermittent energy production, different energy technologies and solutions are in development. Hydrogen is a main candidate for this goal. Using Fuel Cell or Battery Electric Vehicles as flexible...

The rapid growth of the PV industry has meant that prices have been falling steeply, making them more accessible for a wider range of applications. The combined use of noise barriers as energy generating facilities, usually coined as PVNBs has been occurring since the late 80’s. It has not realised wide spread implementation, remaining mostly in...

Current urban systems have a linear metabolism; they rely on imported resources, which are used inefficiently, and they produce waste flows. Urban areas can become productive and not only consumptive if a well-planned distributed energy system is implemented. Switching to renewables, however, means rethinking today’s urban landscape entirely....

As one of the carbon-free emission transportation method, fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEV) have become a very popular research topic for the recent years. However, as the fuel of FCEV, the hydrogen is usually produced by traditional steam reforming method, which is still not an environmentally friendly process.</p><p>This report focuses on...

In the Paris Agreement a total of 195 countries agreed on a legally binding climate deal to bridge towards climate-neutrality before the end of the century. This requires affordable zero emission, heat and transport systems. This research answers the question whether solar and wind generated electricity, with the integration of fuel cell...

The Master’s programme Industrial Ecology is jointly organised by Leiden University and Delft University of Technology. The Green Village, a project of the TU Delft, developed a solution for a new renewable energy system: The Car as Power Plant. The concept of the Car as Power Plant is that fuel cell cars not only can be used as an efficient and...
