Sustainable Technology consulting for a carbon-neutral, climate-resilient living environment

 

 

Tekstvak: Energy

 

Clean energy

Consulting to accelerate and widen the energy transition.

This involves various renewable energy sources, energy storage systems and energy carriers:

»   Solar energy (thermal, hybrid, photovoltaic and solar photochemical devices).

»   Wind energy.

»   Hydropower.

»   Geothermal energy.

»   Energy from biomass, bio-energy.

»   Heat pumps.

»   Heating and cooling grids (district thermal networks).

»   Electrification, microgrids.

»   Energy storage systems, thermal and electrical. Battery technology.

»   Energy carriers, such as hydrogen and synthetic fuels.

 

 

Our consulting in renewable energy comprises these three subfields:

-    Energy in buildings,

-    Clean energy in neighbourhoods,

-    Grid-connected clean energy and industrial use of clean energy.

 

Energy efficiency and clean energy in buildings

»   Thermography using a heat camera (IR camera).

»   Building-integrated renewable energy.

»   Energy facades / energy roofs.

»   Solar energy (solar thermal, PVT and PV)

»   Wind energy integrated in the built environment.

»   Heat recovery systems for buildings, heat exchangers.

»   Energy-efficient buildings:
nZEB (nearly Zero-Energy Buildings) / ZEB (Zero-Energy Buildings) / PEB (plus-energy buildings).

»   Energy retrofits for existing buildings (upgrading energy performance).

»   Calculation and certification of building energy performance, energy labelling.

»   Vehicle-to-Building (V2B).

»   Software used: SIMIEN and PHPP.
