To improve the conversion efficiency of c-Si solar cells, it is crucial to quench the recombination losses at c-Si/metal interface. Such recombination losses are able to be reduced by using carrier-selective passivating contacts by means of hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) and poly-crystalline silicon (poly-Si)/tunneling silicon oxide ...

Due to the expected depletion of fossil fuels, the development of renewable sources of energy has gotten a lot of attention over the past years. Wind energy, and in specific offshore wind energy, is considered to be one of the most promising sources of renewable energy for the future. Although the costs associated with offshore wind energy are...

To reduce the usage of Indium (rare material) in CIGS, ultra thin, high efficiency CIGS based solar devices have been developed in our group. One approach is to fabricate hybrid tandem cells between hydrogenated amorphous silicon and CIGS. Because the a-Si:H top sub-cell limits the current of such a device, it is desirable to texture the top...

As the number of large scale photovoltaic power plants (which also known as solar parks) is growing in recent years, standard activities related to the system such as the operation and maintenance of the plant and grid management have become more crucial. In order to ensure a standard quality of these activities, accurate irradiance measurement...

The building sector accounts for 30% of the total energy consumption worldwide, which has a large potential for improvement in energy demand (OECD/IEA, 2015). In the Netherlands a large part of the building stock are existing houses and that eventually need to be transformed to become energy neutral. The scale of the neighbourhood makes it...

Our world is faced with a major challenge: anthropogenic climate change. This is a result of our continued use of fossil fuels, causing the emission of greenhouse gasses into our atmosphere, thereby adding to global warming. An important part of these decarbonisation strategies is the production of electricity from renewable energy sources and...

The increasing globalwarming and climate change has boosted research on sustainable energy in the last few decades leading to a lot of research being carried out on wind energy. Wind turbines have played a major role in harvesting wind energy withHorizontal AxisWind Turbines (HAWTs) being the dominant design. However, for urban and offshore...

The future depletion of conventional fossil fuel reserves, the ever increasing need for energy self – reliance and the global concern around environmental change caused by their use, have made heat and power generation from alternative and sustainable sources a primary research focus worldwide. Biomass is such a source, constituting a clean and...

Abstract Solid Oxide Fuel-assisted Electrolysis Cells (SOFEC) are a relatively recent development as far as fuel cell research is concerned. Laboratory tests predict that they have the ability of efficiently producing hydrogen and, most importantly, at a lower cost compared to conventional high temperature electrolysis. The SOFEC mode of...

New concepts for support structures of offshore wind turbines have gained interest in the industry and are examined for intermediate and deep water depths in order to unlock new offshore potential markets. One of the main proposals that has already been commercialized is the three or four leg full height lattice structure. The fatigue assessment...

With the upcoming trend in electric aviation a good model that describes how the solar spectrum depends on altitude and solar zenith angle can ease the design process significantly. Knowing what solar spectrum to expect makes it possible to design the solar system of an aircraft more efficiently as the optimal incoming energy is included in the...

Synthesis gas, or syngas, is among the most common products of biomass gasification and pyrolysis process. Syngas is produced by various fuels such as coal, biomass and any other hydrocarbon material. The principal use of syngas is in gas turbines as a fuel. It may also be used as the constructive material in other applications, such as methanol...

The thesis proposes a controller that enables microgrids to have a modular structure, to be flexible in terms of linked energy consumers and resources, and to offer the possibility of prioritized demand side management, while avoiding the need of employing a dedicated communication network. For this, the control strategy applies droop control,...

This paper presents the mathematical modelling and design of a flat plate photoreactor with a fixed film photocatalyst to degrade phenol. Phenol was used as target pollutant as it is one of the most studied contaminants in photocatalysis and it is present in many of the wastewater streams containing pesticides, drugs, and dyes which cannot be...
