Energy transition track honors program

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.

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.

Team Fast (Formic Acid Sustainable Transportation), is currently building a system to generate electricity from Hydrozine. Team FAST is now an official TU/e student team.
