Niet alleen huishoudens, maar ook scholen, kantoren en winkels gebruiken energie. Meer inzicht in de energievraag van de diverse energiegebruikers in de stad kan de stedelijke energietransitie vooruit helpen, concludeert Nina Voulis uit haar promotieonderzoek aan de TU Delft.

Following the VPRO Tegenlicht documentary Deltaplan Hydrogen TU Delft, Lijm & Cultuur and The Green Village organised the Tegenlicht Meet-up on February 12, attended by 300+ people. There was a lively debate amongst researchers, such as Prof. Ad van Wijk, prof. Andy van den Dobbelsteen and prof. Fokko Mulder about the role of hydrogen in the entire energy transition. Stephan Brandligt, alderman of the municipality of Delft and Albert van der Molen, Stedin, also participated in the debate.

2. As of 1 January 2019, Dr. Maxim Segeren, former colleague at the Hydraulic Engineering Department of the Faculty of CE&GS, will start as project manager for Offshore Wind at the Valorisation Centre. Building on his previous experience in collaboration projects with industry on offshore renewable energy and his role in the GROW consortium and PhD@Sea, Maxim will be fully dedicated to the further development of offshore wind projects between the TU Delft departments and industrial parties.

Meer inzicht in de energievraag van de verschillende gebruikers in de stad – huishoudens én diensten als scholen, kantoren en winkels – kan de stedelijke energietransitie vooruit helpen.

Foundations for a new building at the Green Village contain 40 metre long tubes to exchange heat with the soil. Researchers will monitor the ‘energy piles’ in action.
