Kouwerberg, Sang Jae (author), Alpizar Castillo, J.J. (author), Ramirez Elizondo, L.M. (author), Bauer, P. (author)Batteries are one of the main tools to provide the flexibility distribution and transmission systems need due to their increasing dependence on weather conditions. However, environmental and economic factors pose a significant problem. New types of batteries that do not rely on rare earth metals and organic solvents but instead use water and...conference paper 2023

Slaifstein, D.A. (author), Alpizar Castillo, J.J. (author), Menendez Agudin, A. (author), Ramirez Elizondo, L.M. (author), Chandra Mouli, G.R. (author), Bauer, P. (author)In the context of building electrification the operation of distributed energy resources integrating multiple energy carriers poses a significant challenge. Such an operation calls for an energy management system that decides the set-points of the primary control layer in the best way possible. This is done by fulfilling user requirements,...conference paper 2023

Heidary, Amir (author), Popov, M. (author), Moghim, Ali (author), Ghaffarian Niasar, M. (author), Lekić, A. (author)The significance of battery energy storage systems (BESSs) technology has been growing rapidly, mostly due to the need for microgrid applications and the integration of renewables. Relevant to the importance of utilization of BESS in microgrids, the protection of the BESS during microgrid faults has become a concern too. The short circuit in...journal article 2023

van Doorn, Victor (author)Future energy systems are expected to rely increasingly more on distributed energy resources (DER). Prosumers that own energy resources such as photovoltaic (PV) generation and energy storage systems, will play a crucial role in the realization of DER’s in future power systems. Limited grid connections due to local electricity congestion make it...master thesis 2022

GAUTAM, DIVYANSH (author)At present, there is a worldwide awareness and concern about how global warming could impact daily lives and the need to switch to renewable sources of energy. Commercially, various green energy technologies such as hydro, wind, solar, nuclear fission, etc. are being used to harness their stored energy and convert it into electricity. However,...master thesis 2022

Linck, Charlie (author)Vopak has the vision to become climate neutral by 2050 (Scope 1 and 2 emissions). Currently, over 99% of its CO2 emissions originate from storage terminal activities. Action must be taken to reduce these emissions by converting the current (fossil fuel-based) generation of electricity to sustainable energy.<br/><br/>This study aims to research...master thesis 2022

van der Veen, Celine (author)The majority of Dutch homes currently use natural gas boilers to meet their space heating demand. Changes in this significantly large sector are required to achieve the sustainability goals established by the Paris Agreement. Since most renewable energy sources produce electricity, transitioning residential heating systems might cause problems...master thesis 2022

Ehmcke, Luisa (author)Large-scale hydrogen storage is a crucial part of the energy transition. The usage of salt caverns has a great potential in this process, but there are open questions regarding the construction’s lifetime which need to be investigated prior to their implementation. In this work, potential construction steels were studied. The conditions in a...master thesis 2022

Mulder, Bas (author)With variable renewable energy on the rise, large-scale energy storage is needed to assure grid stability. Thermal energy storage (TES) is a new player in the large-scale energy storage landscape, but might prove a cheap, safe and reliable option, with low permitting barriers. TES is not geographically limited, generally compact and has a low...master thesis 2022

Evans, Michael (author), Tindemans, Simon H. (author), Angeli, David (author)This paper proposes a framework for the procurement of flexibility reserve from aggregated storage fleets. It allows for arbitrary tree structures of aggregation hierarchy, as well as easily implementable disaggregation via broadcast dispatch. By coupling discharge and recovery modes, the proposed framework enables full-cycle capacity to be...journal article 2022

van Gameren, Mels (author)To mitigate the effects of climate change, CO2-emmissions will have to be reduced. This can be done by substituting the use of fossil, CO2-heavy by the use of renewable, CO2-neutral energy carriers. Hydrogen is such a renewable energy carrier that can be produced in a CO2-neutral way. The potential of hydrogen is recognized by the European...master thesis 2022

Giitsidis, Konstantinos (author)Trolleybuses are electric buses than run on electric power from overhead electric power lines (catenary) like trams do. Although is a service that dates all the way back to 1882, it has managed to regain interest in the recent years due to the constant electrification of various aspects of the world. This comes as a response towards...master thesis 2022

Reuchlin, Sweder (author)Currently, in remote off-grid locations, electricity is primarily generated using diesel generators, which is expensive and has significant carbon emissions. Alternatively, these remote locations have a huge potential for utilizing renewable energy sources. In such locations, airborne wind energy (AWE) systems could have an advantage over...master thesis 2022

Wijnveen, Calvin (author), van de Luijtgaarden, Raf (author)In 2018 it was estimated that the aviation industry produced approximately 1.04 billion tons of CO2. This was an estimated 2.5% of the total CO2 emitted that year. In order to slow down global warming, big changes need to be made to the transportation industry. This change has already begun with commercialization of electric cars. The next step...bachelor thesis 2022
