Projects

The Energy in Transition research group explores how AI helps professionals make faster and better technical decisions in complex system integration within the energy transition.

Energy Hubs integrate electricity, heat, and molecular energy carriers into one system, providing a structural solution to grid congestion and system complexity.

Grid congestion calls for smarter use of existing infrastructure. This project explores how public lighting networks can contribute to a future-proof and flexible energy system.

HyUse explores how green hydrogen can be used for sustainable energy systems, industry, and heavy transport. The Hague University of Applied Sciences develops and tests a hydrogen installation for greenhouse horticulture...

Why do successful sustainability projects often fail to scale up? This research compares real-world projects to identify how solutions for grid congestion can be implemented more widely and effectively.

NEWRAIL explores how solar energy can be safely integrated into railway noise barriers, focusing on system integration across technology, safety, and organisation.

Hydrogen is becoming a key energy carrier in the energy transition. This project develops the knowledge and skills needed for the safe production, storage, and application of hydrogen.

Grid congestion is slowing down the transition to emission-free construction in the Netherlands. This project develops a modular DC charging hub that makes smarter use of existing electricity infrastructure.

Driving Urban Transitions (DUT) is an EU innovation program driving urban towards sustainability. Challenges such as climate neutrality and energy transition are centralized in the innovation program.

Accelerating the transition to renewable energy for greenhouse horticulture in Europe.

Development of dynamic and static methods for energy flexibility of buildings.

Like all Dutch municipalities, Leidschendam-Voorburg has the task of letting go of the gas grid. CoE Mission Zero was asked to help think about the realization of this issue from multiple perspectives.
