Energy transition track honors program

Team Better/e aims to create an open-source iron redox flow battery setup and enable researchers and students worldwide to work side by side on improving it while sharing their findings.

Circular pavilion designs a pavilion for the Eb & Vloed September 2023 energy festival in Renesse, located on the beach of the festival and has to showcase the theme of energy. The pavilion is a transitional space that is designed to encourage thought and discussion on wind energy, based on the aesthetics and functionality.

Team InCharge focuses on the wireless charging of electric vehicles while driving (dynamic wireless charging/DWC).

The aim of the Project is to develop an algorithm for Smart Meters that disaggregates the energy consumption of households and small offices into the appliance level.

Team V2A will investigate how vehicle-to-everything (V2X) technology can be implemented in parking garages P3/P4 of Eindhoven Airport to store the generated energy in an effective, innovative, and economically feasible way.

Team TheroSel researches the viability of thermochemical energy storage and aims to establish a platform to communicate this technology to the general public.

Voltalgae is working on a solution for off-grid, small scale, decentralized energy needs: algae battery made from sustainable materials, continuously providing energy and less dependent on weather.

The core mission of Team RenewCO2 is facilitating the sustainable utilization of carbon dioxide. It is our main goal to capture CO2. A favorable result of this is a viable resource: formic acid. In other words, we upcycle a hazardous substance in a useful one. The vision of Team RenewCO2 can be seen as the following: developing a system that turns carbon dioxide into formic acid by using electrolysis.

Team NANO works on a revolutionary technology to produce electricity out of small motions. Applications vary from wearable electronics and public spaces to self-powered sensors and even medical field.

Team InCharge focuses on the wireless charging of electric vehicles while driving (dynamic wireless charging/DWC).

Our goal is to develop a sustainable, autonomous and affordable vehicle to facilitate research on the Antarctic continent.

We at team nano are working on a revolutionary renewable energy system that acts as an interface between us and our surroundings. It can easily be used in or on pre-existing urban infrastructure; imagine roads, bicycle paths, the floors of your homes and offices, all working day and night in generating electrical energy from the day to day movement of you and your peers.

Team POLAR aims to venture into the unexplored territories of the Antarctic with an autonomous and sustainable vehicle; enabling global accessibility of Antarctic research, whilst addressing environmental impacts on the Antarctic.

Core Chemistry is a start-up for realising industrial production plants. By making use of a process called elementary retraction we are trying to bring us one step closer to the zero-age, a time where all waste ends up as new raw materials.

The core mission of Renew CO2 is facilitating the sustainable utilization of carbon dioxide. It is our main goal to capture CO2. A favourable result of this is a viable resource: formic acid. In other words, we upcycle a hazardous substance in a potentially useful one. Besides our mission statement, Renew CO2 also has a vision. The vision of Renew CO2 can be seen as the following: developing a system that turns carbon dioxide into formic acid by using electrolysis.

In 2048, parts of the Antarctic Treaty end. This means that the last pristine continent on earth will undergo dramatic changes. With the aim of continuing the treaty, Antarctica2048 wants to show how valuable the continent is to science by designing and building an autonomous, self-sustaining research vehicle that runs 100% on green energy.

The times we live in are the most innovative, rapidly developing and advanced times humans have ever known. Looking ahead into the future does not give us any reason to doubt that this trend will end anytime soon, which is awesome. However, replacement cycles of consumer electronics are getting shorter and shorter, and with it more and more devices are being thrown away.

Team RED offers intuitive insight into how energy is used and how this system can be improved. This is done through the use of a large interactive dashboard, displayed on a touchscreen monitor. On this dashboard information about the consumption of each of the buildings, as well as information on the electricity grid can be easily analyzed. Then, using tokens, the user can simulate the placement of different energy assets (e.g. solar panels, storage batteries, etc). Their impacts will be calculated by the data model and be presented to the user in an intuitive and user-friendly manner. To do this the map provides metrics such as CO₂ emissions saved, total cost, payback time and return on investment.

Our mission is to accelerate the energy transition by bringing together the right partners from the academic and business world to integrate and innovate in the construction environment.

Team CORE is making the ZERO AGE possible. By using elementary retraction we will be able to use e-waste as raw material in the future by retrieving the elements in their pure form and reusing them!

We want to create an electricity grid that can integrate local and flexible energy assets into the energy system, in order to make energy use more sustainable.

SOLID develops a sustainable energy storage system with iron powder as circular energy carrier.
