Haverkamp, J. (author)In recent years there has been an increasing interest in the concept of Demand Responsive Transport (DRT). The area of application has almost exclusively been limited to road bound systems. Applying DRT as a substitute for current heavy rail services has not been considered in literature or practice before. This thesis is a first step into the...master thesis 2017

Henriques, Margarida Vigario (author), Stikkelman, R.M. (author)Renewable energy sources are currently presented as an economically viable and environmentally safe option in the near future. A major constraint to the incorporation of wind and solar generation at large scale is the increase of variability in the power system. To assure the perpetual balance between power production and gross consumption a...conference paper 2017

Oldenbroek, V.D.W.M. (author), Wijtzes, Siebren (author), van Wijk, A.J.M. (author), Blok, K. (author)In a 2050 fully renewable national electricity, heating and road transport system primary energy supply comes from non-dispatchable power generation such as solar and wind energy. Both negative and positive dispatchable balancing power plants need to balance the system. This work investigates whether parked and grid connected (Vehicle-to-Grid...conference paper 2017

Janssen, S.A.M. (author), Sharpanskykh, Alexei (author)Security Risk Assessment is commonly performed by using traditional methods based on linear probabilistic tools and informal expert judgements. These methods lack the capability to take the inherent dynamic and intelligent nature of attackers into account. To partially address the limitations, researchers applied game theory to study security...conference paper 2017

Narayan S., Jishnu (author), Cats, O. (author), van Oort, N. (author), Hoogendoorn, S.P. (author)The emergence of innovative mobility solutions that offer flexible transport services, is changing the way urban public transport systems will be designed. Such mobility solutions offer on demand transport services and hence can solve the problems inherent with traditional line based and schedule based public transport systems. It is essential...conference paper 2017

Abi Morshed, F. (author)Traditionally, the transmission network transported electricity over extended distances from local large scale electricity generation plants to distribution networks that transported electricity to end consumers (Ekanayake, 2012). In order to ensure that such a system remains operational, a Distribution System Operator (DSO) maintains, operates...master thesis 2016

Koliou, E. (author)With the grasp of a smart grid in sight, discussions have shifted the focus of system security measures away from generation capacity; apart from modifying the supply side, demand may also be exploited to keep the system in balance. Specifically, Demand Response (DR) is the concept of consumer load modification as a result of price signaling,...doctoral thesis 2016

Korkas, C (author), Baldi, S. (author), Michailidis, I (author), Kosmatopoulos, EB (author)Integration of renewable energy sources in microgrids can be achieved via demand response programs, which change the electric usage in response to changes in the availability and price of electricity over time. This paper presents a novel control algorithm for joint demand response management and thermal comfort optimization in microgrids...journal article 2016

Klaassen, EAM (author), Kobus, C.B.A. (author), Frunt, J (author), Slootweg, JG (author)To efficiently facilitate the energy transition it is essential to evaluate the potential of demand response in practice. Based on the results of a Dutch smart grid pilot, this paper assesses the potential of both manual and semi-automated demand response in residential areas. To stimulate demand response, a dynamic tariff and smart appliances...journal article 2016
