DRI Energy

In Prof. Ad van Wijk's plans for The Green Campus at TU Delft a car park will generate electricity. Added benefit for the user: getting paid for parking.

How can we make wind turbines at sea larger and therefore more effective? This animation shows a solution of Delft University of Technology: decreasing the wind load by allowing the turbine blades to change their own shape.

How can we replace oil by agricultural waste as base material for the chemical industry? This animation shows a solution of Delft University of Technology: adapting and training micro-organisms.

How can we improve the yield of cheap, thin film, solar cells? This animation shows a number of solutions of Delft University of Technology: using nano particles to enlarge the cell’s optical thickness for example.

How can we enlarge the capacity and charging speed of lithium-ion batteries to store energy more efficiently? This animation shows a solution of Delft University of Technology: using nano particles that connect with the electrolyte faster.

How can we produce and use heat more efficiently and sustainably? This animation shows a number of solutions of Delft University of Technology: using natural heat and recycling waste heat.
