Perez Rodriguez, P. (author), Digdaya, I.A. (author), Mangel Raventos, A. (author), Falkenberg, M. (author), Vasudevan, R.A. (author), Zeman, M. (author), Smith, W.A. (author), Smets, A.H.M. (author)One of the main problems of renewable energies is storage of the energy carrier. For long-term storage, solar fuels seem to be a good option. Direct solar water splitting could play an important role in the production of these solar fuels. One of the main challenges of this process is the charge separation and collection at the interfaces. The...conference paper 2016

(author)The paper analyses the economic and environmental benefits of charging electric vehicles (EV) at workplaces in the Netherlands using photovoltaic panels (PV). A 10kW EV-PV charging system is used to charge the electric cars directly from photovoltaic panels. The cost of using a gasoline vehicle is compared with that of an electric vehicle that...conference paper 2016

Gao, Y. (author), Dong, J. (author), Isabella, O. (author), Zeman, M. (author), Zhang, G (author)Diverse solar irradiance spectra can be observed under different conditions of time, date, location, weather, etc. Since the solar irradiance spectrum is required by certain scientific and engineering applications, obtaining accurate spectral data is essential. Measurements by spectrophotometers are able to achieve accurate real-time data with...conference paper 2016

Chandra Mouli, G.R. (author), Kaptein, Johan (author), Bauer, P. (author), Zeman, M. (author)Dynamic charging of electric vehicles (EV) refers to charging the EV using variable charging power. This is important for applications where the EV is charged from intermittent renewable energy sources like wind or solar. Dynamic charging can be implemented using three standards - AC charging, DC charging via Chademo and CCS/COMBO. This paper...conference paper 2016

Chandra Mouli, G.R. (author), Schijffelen, Jos (author), Bauer, P. (author), Zeman, M. (author)Magnetic cores like powdered iron cores have a variable permeability, which is dependent on the magnetic motive force of the inductor windings. When inductors are designed using such materials, the inductance varies as a function of the inductor current. This causes a non-linear current to flow through the inductor. In this paper, mathematical...conference paper 2016
