Frens, J.C. (author), Bekebrede, G. (author), Quist, J.N. (author)In order to support transition to a circular economy, visions and strategies need to be developed for which participatory backcasting can be used. This paper reports on the effects of using serious games as a possible supporting (social) engagement and design tool for vision development in participatory backcasting and has been applied to...journal article 2024

Huijsing, Yannick (author)Indonesia has ambitious plans to reach CO2 neutrality by 2060. While plans to reach this goal have been made for the energy and forestry sector, no plans have been published for the transport sector specifically. The amount of private vehicles on the road in 2060 has been predicted to increase significantly. Backcasting was used in tandem with...master thesis 2022

González-González, Esther (author), Nogués, Soledad (author), Stead, D. (author)The introduction of automated vehicles (AVs)is a virtual certainty. Much less certain is the timing of their introduction and how rapid the transition to full automation will be. Various governments are already working to facilitate this shift by, for example, amending and elaborating regulations to support the introduction of AVs, or...journal article 2020

Visman, Bineke (author)The Netherlands aims to reduce GHG emissions by 95% by 2050 compared to 1990. Hydrogen is seen as a potential energy carrier in the Netherlands by 2050. To what extent hydrogen will be implemented is unknown, because many applications are possible. Hydrogen shows potential for (1) carbon free feedstock for process industry, (2) carbon free...master thesis 2019

Gonzalez-Gonzalez, M.E. (author), Nogués, Soledad (author), Stead, D. (author)The introduction of Autonomous Vehicles (AVs) into cities may fundamentally transform the design and use of cities. On one hand, AVs offer the potential to reduce the urban space requirements for roads and parking, creating more space for high-quality, liveable areas. On the other hand, greater motorisation and the availability to perform...journal article 2019

Browning, Graham (author)Cities account for approximately 75% of Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions. This, along with the fact that cities also account for 75% of natural resource consumption and 50% of global waste production, makes urbanization a world-wide issue (Sukhdev, Vol, Brandt, & Yeoman, 2017). Additionally, the widely-practiced urban linear economic structure...master thesis 2018
