Weninger, Bernhard (author)In the study described in this thesis, it is demonstrated that combined short-term and long-term energy storage in one device, the battolyzer, is possible. The battolyzer is a device that works as a rechargeable battery, and that is capable of performing highly efficient electrolysis with any excess electricity. The battolyzer was based on the...master thesis 2016

van Eijk, Stefan (author)Wind turbine design is subject to load calculation standards. These determine material use which in turn affects wind turbine costs. Wind turbine cost reductions are important as they contribute to the economic feasibility of wind turbines. Therefore careful evaluation of the load standards is paramount for wind turbine design. This thesis...master thesis 2016

Valkema, Veerle (author)Several operational optimization problems occur in the current situation related to the district heating system (DHS) of Utrecht. The present control strategy is not optimized for the current operation of the DHS. This leads to energy losses, exergy losses and higher operational cost.<br/>The goal of this research is to find improved control...master thesis 2016
