This research investigates the potential of natural jute fibre nets to enhance the flexural strength of geopolymer concrete tiles. Two types of jute fibre grids with surface densities of 120g/mm² and 220g/mm² were tested in four configurations. The objective was to determine the configuration that most …

Recent schreef Martien Visser dat voor hem persoonlijk bij vervanging van zijn cv-ketel een volledig elektrische warmtepomp met een aantal straalkacheltjes goedkoper is dan een hybride exemplaar zonder die kacheltjes. Het leverde hem tal van reacties op met als boodschap dat dit al gebeurt of overwogen …

Battery energy storage (BES) can provide many grid services, such as power flow management to reduce distribution grid overloading. It is desirable to minimise BES storage capacities to reduce investment costs. However, it is not always clear how battery sizing is affected by battery siting and power …

A presentation/workshop concerning the old and new rules that aim to solve grid congestion.

There is an ongoing transition towards renewable energy sources in order to combat climate change. National power grids are suffering due to the rapid introduction of new energy sources and have other disadvantages. Local Energy Systems (LESs) are a beneficial example of an off-grid energy systems that …

The need for increasing further the penetration of Renewable Energy Sources (RESs) is demanding a change in the way distribution grids are managed. In particular, the RESs intermittent and stochastic nature is finding in Battery Energy Storage (BES) systems its most immediate countermeasure. This work …

Louter investeren in netverzwaring is volgens Martien Visser niet de oplossing. “Laten we in plaats daarvan veel meer gaan werken aan het stimuleren van de vraag op momenten met veel aanbod.”

The application of DC grids is gaining more attention in office applications. Especially since powering an office desk would not require a high power connection to the main AC grid but could be made sustainable using solar power and battery storage. This would result in fewer converters and further advanced …
