Computationally efficient modeling for assessing the energy efficiency of electric drivetrains using convex formulations Ghent University
Improving energy efficiency in public transport: stationary supercapacitor based energy storage systems for a metro network Vrije Universiteit Brussel
This article will assess the installation of stationary super capacitor based Energy Storage Systems (ESS) along a metro line for energy savings purposes. The influence of the ESS size and distribution along the line will be studied taking into account different traffic conditions.
The ESSs will be configured with regards to energy content, voltage variation, maximum current and power losses. To carry out the study, an effect-cause or ...

Data centres in future European energy systems - energy efficiency, integration and policy Vrije Universiteit Brussel
End-use efficiency, demand response and coupling of different energy vectors are important aspects of future renewable energy systems. Growth in the number of data centres is leading to an increase in electricity demand and the emergence of a new electricity-intensive industry. Studies on data centres and energy use have so far focused mainly on energy efficiency. This paper contributes with an assessment of the potential for energy system ...
Do energy efficiency improvements reduce energy use? Empirical evidence on the economy-wide rebound effect in Europe and the United States Hasselt University
Increasing energy efficiency is often considered to be one of the main ways of reducing greenhouse gas emissions. However, efficiency gains that reduce the cost of energy services result in energy use rebounding and potential energy use savings being eaten up. Empirical research that quantifies the economy-wide rebound effect while taking the dynamic economic responses to energy efficiency improvements into account is limited. We use a ...

Tradeoff between ergodic energy efficiency and spectral efficiency in D2D communications under Rician fading channel Ghent University
Optimizing production efficiencies of hot water units using building energy simulations : trade-off between Legionella pneumophila contamination risk and energy efficiency Ghent University
The energy needed for domestic hot water represents an important share in the total energy use of well-insulated and airtight buildings. One of the main reasons for this high energy demand is that hot water is produced at temperatures above 60°C to mitigate the risk of contaminating the hot water system with Legionella pneumophila. However, this elevated temperature is not necessary for most domestic hot water applications, and has a negative ...
