Knevels, Tuur (author)In the scope of global decarbonisation, hydrogen has been identified as an essential energy carrier. Not only as an energy storage solution for further electrification in vehicles but also as a primary fuel source in processes that rely on chemical energy which cannot be easily electrified. However, at ambient conditions, hydrogen is also a very...master thesis 2024

Hijdra, Rens (author)In Sustainable Software Engineering there is a need for tooling and guidelines for developers. In this research we aim to provide such guidelines. We find that for our experimental setup and set of benchmarks 500 samples gives results that are likely stable at a 1% threshold in their Relative Confidence Interval Width. Running benchmarks with a...master thesis 2024

Pelka, S. (author)The potential of households to adapt their energy use to the conditions of the energy system remains largely untapped due to shortcomings in consumer governance (i.e., the organization of household energy use). A lack of price signals and services leads to uncoordinated household energy use. Various proposals exist for updating consumer...doctoral thesis 2024

Vulnerability Assessment of Modern Power Systems: Voltage Stability and System Strength PerspectivesBoricic, Aleksandar (author)Climate change is one of the most dangerous and simultaneously most complex threats humanity has ever faced. The key response to this threat has been an unprecedented strategic shift in the energy sector, known as the<i> energy transition</i>. Electricity powers the modern world and is at the very centre of the energy transition. The shift to...doctoral thesis 2024
