The deep waters surrounding Curacao prohibit the installation of conventional bottom-founded wind turbines. This project aims to develop a floating wind park using Tension Leg Platforms which will be installed by a specialized vessel called "The Wind Changer".

Develop a 15-minute forecast model for shore power consumption by large container vessels in the Port of Rotterdam. Help reduce fossil fuel use and emissions by enabling cleaner, smarter energy use—contributing to a more sustainable, low-carbon port of the future.

We are looking for designs on how our novel power cycle can be implemented in a truck. We are asking for a conceptual design as well as sizing and weight estimation and compare it with conventional diesel based, electric battery based and fuel cell-based truck.

With an increasing need for transformer stations due to energy system electrification, noise pollution caused by these stations is a growing concern. Your challenge is to develop innovative noise-reducing solutions that are scalable, energy-efficient and adhere to regulations and environmental standards, without compromising transformer efficiency.

Tackle the energy transition's challenges! Join our interdisciplinary team to develop an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) and create innovative solutions for minimizing energy consumption and promoting circular installations. Make a real impact on sustainable energy integration in existing buildings and networks.

By implementing direct electric heating to reach 1200°C, this project aims to revolutionize steel re-heating, effectively eliminating CO2 emissions while reducing costs. Students will contribute to cutting-edge research in sustainable industrial processes. Efforts will be made both in market scoping and development of a Proof of Concept installation.

KNUST (Ghana) strives to use more sustainable energy on campus. It currently has 80 backup diesel generators (dataset available).
The team should employ data analysis techniques, technology driven research, and economic models to identify potential solution(s) that:
-reliably meet energy needs
-reduce carbon footprint
-are economically competitive
Students should travel to Ghana for data collection & interviews. Limited funding available.

Advanced Geothermal Systems require connecting different wells in the subsurface to create closed loops. These loops function as heat exchangers to produce the heat of deep earth layers. The objective of this JIP project is to develop a more effective method to improve these crucial intersections.

Dr. Ten has developed a new battery BMS/EMS/ICT system that is under study at TU Delft and in Maassluis. Besides it has a new CO2 free heating source with water as green fuel.

HyER Power & CWD assess the technical and financial feasibility of the HyER Power Plant (fuel cell-heat pump system with buffer technology) and hydrogen generation (via KLM’s solar panels) for KLM real estate. The main focus is integration with existing systems, enabling an optimal energy system.

Despite its renewable energy potential, Curaçao faces technical, economic, and environmental challenges in implementing large-scale offshore wind farms and integrating energy storage systems. There is a need for a systemic engineering analysis that evaluates the feasibility, resilience, and sustainability of such a combined offshore wind and energy storage infrastructure tailored to the island’s geographic and socio-economic context.
