Nogueira, L.P. (author), Dalla Longa, F. (author), van der Zwaan, B.C.C. (author)Using the integrated assessment model TIAM-ECN, we analyze how Madagascar’s nationally determined contribution (NDC) to the Paris Agreement can be implemented in both the energy and non-energy sectors. We explore how the country’s national climate goal for 2030 can be reached under two different cost levels for climate change mitigation through...article 2020

(author)Large-magnitude fluid-injection induced seismic events are a potential risk for geothermal energy developments worldwide. One potential risk mitigation measure is the application of cyclic injection schemes. After validation at small (laboratory) and meso (mine) scale, the concept has now been applied for the first time at field scale at the...article 2019

Kanev, S.K. (author), Savenije, F.J. (author), Engels, W.P. (author)The wind turbines within a wind farm impact each other's power production and loads through their wakes. Wake control strategies, aiming to reduce wake effects, receive increasing interest by both the research community and the industry. A number of recent simulation studies with high fidelity wake models indicate that wake mitigation control is...article 2018

van Engelenburg, B.C.W. (author), Maas, N. (author)A regional energy transition (RET) implies a drastic transformation of the energy system and, hence, a lot of challenges. A RET calls for an integrative local approach. In this essay we describe and compare the current practice and the state of knowledge on this topic. We find that theory has not yet developed sufficiently to address the...article 2018

Paap, B. (author), Kraaijpoel, D. (author), Bakker, M. (author), Gharti, H.N. (author)Gas extraction from the Groningen natural gas field, situated in the Netherlands, frequently induces earthquakes in the reservoir that cause damage to buildings, and pose a safety hazard and a nuisance to the local population. Due to the dependence of the national heating infrastructure on Groningen gas, the short-term mitigation measures are...article 2018

Poos, J.M. (author), van den Bosch, K. (author), Janssen, C.P. (author)This study investigates whether cognitive bias in judgment and decision making can be reduced by training, and whether the effects are affected by the nature of the training environment. Theory suggests that biases can be overcome by training in critical reflective thinking. In addition, applied research studies have suggested that game-based...article 2017

Brunner, L. (author), Neele, F. (author)The use of CO2 storage for carbon emission reduction is crucial to achieve climate change goals. This can be seen through the efforts governments and organizations are putting on carbon capture and storage (CCS), such as at the recent climate talks in Paris (COP21) and reports from the International Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). Along with the...conference paper 2017

(author)The Bečej field, discovered in 1951 by the Petroleum Industry of Serbia (NIS), is one of the largest natural CO2 fields in Europe. Uncontrolled migration of CO2 out of the main reservoir, leading to subsurface seepage and surface leakage, was caused by the Bč-5 well blowout in 1968. Remediation measures were deployed in 2007 to reduce and...conference paper 2016
