Theme
Innovating towards zero
In December 2015 the world united to fight climate change in The Paris Agreement. 195 Countries agreed to the world’s first universal action plan to tackle climate change by limiting global warming to ‘well below 2°C’. This historical achievement was just the beginning – now every country must turn their promises into action.
The European Union set key targets for 2020, 2030 and a long-term goal. One of these targets concerns a cut in the greenhouse gas emissions. One of the well-known and important greenhouse gasses is CO2, the emission of CO2 is high and needs to be reduced rapidly. The problem is that for this reduction our economy, lifestyle and infrastructure need to change. How are we going to do this? What do we need to achieve this goal? And is it possible to maintain our current way of living if we want to do so? We will look for answers at the Energy Now congress 2017 ‘Innovating towards zero’. The day will be divided in theme lines with topics such as offshore wind, urban energy and micro grids.
Breakout sessions
Six different themes allow you to select the topics of your interest. Each theme consists of two different breakout sessions, given by companies relevant to the theme. You chose attend one of those themes during the event
Smart Grids
EIT InnoEnergy – Innovating towards zero by design
A sustainable future, isn’t that what we all want? But what would it look like? How are we living today, and what will we need to change to achieve this future. EIT will give an inspiring workshop about creating ideas for the future, innovating by design.
The Innovation by Design is an interactive workshop that gives you the opportunity to explore and design the future of smart grid applications. The objective of the session is to improve future quality of life by designing Smart Grids innovations from a user point of view.
The workshop is divided in two parts: before the break, you will be exploring new functionalities enabled by Smart Grids. Guided by the EIT InnoEnergy IbD team, you will contribute to creating value propositions that attract and inspire consumers and innovators.
In the afternoon session, we map and analyse the supply side of these value propositions and create a plan to transform your ideas into viable products and services.
In both sessions, we use the LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® methodology by which real-world change is collectively ‘played out’ using a special set of professionally oriented LEGO-blocks. Come and join us during the Energy Now Congress on May 30 at the Tu/e. And catch a glimpse into the complexity of operating within the Smart Grid world. Innovation by Design by InnoEnergy can support you in becoming and thriving as an entrepreneur in this complex environment.

Micro Grids
Witteveen+Bos and Innofest – Realizing off-grid projects sustainably and testing new prototypes off-grid
How can off-grid projects, think of bridges and artworks, be supplied with sustainable energy? Witteveen & Bos will tell about their expertises and focus on realizing off grid projects in a sustainble manner without doing any compromises. On the other hand Innofest will focus on how festivals can behave as living labs for new sustainable ideas and products.
Witteveen+Bos – The government has formulated different objectives with regard to energy neutrality. Witteveen + Bos advises the government in achieving these goals. For infrastructural objects, such as movable bridges, tunnels and locks, the aim is to be fully energy neutral in 2030. The energy neutralization of objects is a challenge, of which we investigate various things, such as saving energy, generating energy, connecting with power grids, and potential storage opportunities. During the workshop we deal with a case that addresses the issues mentioned above and challenges teams in innovative solutions.
“Witteveen+Bos is a company based in the Netherlands that provides consultancy and engineering services worldwide in the fields of infrastructure, water, the environment, spatial development and construction. Our multidisciplinary approach to projects is the distinctive feature of the way we work. Our clients are governmental, commercial and industrial organisations, including various types of joint ventures and public-private partnerships. We serve our clients from six offices in the Netherlands and ten international offices.”
http://www.witteveenbos.com/en/organisation
Innofest – Besides permanent infrastructure, there are also events that require a temporary micro grid. Innofest is an initiative that functions as living lab. They offer the opportunity for researchers, designers and engineers to test their ideas in a safe environment. Besides that they facilitate a festival that is self-sufficient in their energy supply and sustainable.
“Innofest uses festivals as living labs for innovation. A festival is a temporary environment which mirrors society in terms of the challenges we face in the real world regarding water, energy, waste, food and shelter. Festival goers are ordinary people with normal needs. The festival
grounds are the perfect playgound for testing innovation.”

Sustainable Industries
DIFFER, TKI Energie en Industrie, DAF Trucks N.V. and Antacy – The future of the industry, from solar fuels to energy efficiency
Although the energy usage of consumers takes up quite a share, it is nothing compared to the energy used by industrial processes daily. This is why the industry has an important part in the energy transition. The different aspects of a future with a more sustainable industry will be explained: increasing the efficiency of processes, the use of solar fuels instead of fossil fuels, and capturing CO2 for direct new uses.
DIFFER – The worldwide energy transition from fossil fuels to sustainable energy requires technology with which energy can be efficiently stored and transported. Our research into solar fuels addresses the global challenge of efficiently converting and storing sustainable energy into chemicals. These offer the highest energy densities and are ideal for long-term storage and long-distance transport of sustainable energy.
https://www.differ.nl/research/solar-fuels
ANTECY – Capturing and concentrate (ambient) CO2 at low prices for direct use and production of fuels and chemicals, using solar or wind energy.
With the help of an organic, non-amine sorbent, turns ANTECY the negative of CO2 (greenhouse effects, environmental costs) into a positive, whereby CO2 becomes the ideal renewable resource for our Carbon Economy (fuels, chemicals and other materials).
http://www.antecy.com/
DAF Trucks N.V. – This sessions hosted by DAF Trucks gives insight in the energy policy of PACCAR/DAF Trucks N.V. PACCARs target is to reach 15% CO2 reduction before 2020 where DAF Trucks target is set to 2% reduction per year. During the workshop you learn which instruments are given by the government, which instruments DAF Trucks N.V. is using, and how they are embedded in the energy management of DAF Trucks N.V. Although there are many successes already, there are also some challenges for the future. During the workshop new ideas are explored to help DAF Trucks N.V. towards energy neutrality.
Speakers: Rob Kreiter, system integrator at TKI industrie en energie and senior program developer at ECN

Green Architecture (in Dutch)
Green office, Atlas, TU/e, BAM- The road towards a energy generating built environment
Our lives are centered around the buildings we work and live in and so is our energy consumption. Hear from the Go Green Office how Atlas on the TU/e campus, the most sustainable education building of the world was realized. BAM will give insight in how their project REnnovates is making whole neighbourhoods more sustainable in just days.
GO Green Office – The GO Green Office makes the university’s sustainability vision tangible in the everyday reality of its students and staff members. The GO Green Office is the platform where students and employees with fresh minds shape innovative sustainable ideas and launch projects, all with the objective to stimulate TU/e’s sustainable development.
Atlas – The renovation of the Atlas building, whereby sustainability and comfort are key, reflects the projection of sustainability pictured by TU/e in its operation, education and research. A healthy and comfortable working environment for the users, the prevention of energy wastage and the reuse of materials are at the heart of this.
BAM – The idea of Rennovates instigated from the fact that – within the EU – there is a large stock of old buildings. These buildings are not energy efficient, are no longer up-to-standard to modern comfort levels and at the end-of-their life cycle.
Rennovates is a holistic systemic deep renovation concept using smart services and developing smart energy-based communities resulting in energy-neutral housing – up to and beyond Zero Net Energy – by reducing energy consumption and maximizing the use of renewable energy.

Gas in the Built Environment
Gemeente Eindhoven, TKI gas, TNO – Phasing out natural gas usage, what’s next?
Thousands of new houses are built in the Netherlands every year. All these new houses are still connected to the gas grid. What is the future of natural gas in our daily lives? Will it be completely extruded out of our lives? Will thermal energy be the replacement? Or is natural gas still going to play an important part in decreasing CO2 emissions?
Gemeente Eindhoven – The municipality of Eindhoven has set goals to be energy Neutral in 2045. Part of the solution to accomplish this goal might be found in changing the infrastructure. The municipality will give a workshop about the future of natural gasses in Eindhoven.
https://www.eindhoven.nl/
TKI Gas – ‘TKI (Top consortium knowledge and Innovations) Gas stimulates, connects and supports Dutch companies and knowledge institutions in the development and application of innovations for a fast transition to a sustainable, reliable and affordable energy system when it comes to Gas.’
https://topsectorenergie.nl/tki-gas/wie-zijn-wij
TNO –Het Meerjarenprogramma is een programma gericht op een doorbraak in het gebruik van duurzame energie in de gebouwde omgeving. Deze transitie wordt ingegeven door de (grootschalige) inzet van (decentrale) duurzame opwekking en de noodzaak om de gebouwde omgeving onafhankelijk te maken van de inzet van fossiele energiedragers. Kernbegrippen daarbij zijn: opslag, restwarmte, netbalancering (zowel op centraal als lokaal / in-house niveau), energieneutraliteit op dag/week/maand basis in plaats van op jaarbasis en acceptabele woonlasten voor burgers en bedrijven.

Offshore Wind Power
Van Oord and TKI wind op zee – Technical challenges in a growing market
How can the offshore wind sector keep up with the increase in demand of sustainable energy and wind turbines are getting bigger and bigger. Van Oord will elaborate on how the constructor is dealing with these challenges as market leader wheraeas TKI Wind op Zee will show how prices have been cut severely in the last years.
Van Oord – A lot of the windfarms have been moved offshore, due to the lack of room and expanding size of the turbines. Van Oord is one of the largest companies in the Netherlands that build these offshore windfarms. Building offshore might be a better location for the farms, but brings along a lot of new challenges for building and maintaining them. Together with Van Oord we will take a look at the challenges there are today, but also the challenges of the future when the turbines and the windfarms might be even bigger than they are today.
“Along with dredging and offshore oil & gas, offshore wind is one of Van Oord’s three core activities. All activities and knowledge for the construction of offshore wind farms are combined in the Offshore Wind Projects business unit. In more than ten years, Van Oord Offshore Wind Projects has completed several prominent projects as an EPC contractor, being responsible for the engineering, procurement and construction. Innovative solutions contribute significantly to making this form of sustainable energy more competitive. Van Oord and its Marine ingenuity are already meeting this challenge head-on.”
http://www.vanoord.com/offshore-wind
TKI wind op zee – Producing the energy in offshore wind farms is not the only challenge we are facing today. The energy also has to be brought to shore and connected to the power grid. Not every day the same volume of energy will be produced, due to the changes in the weather. How do we handle this instability in the energy generation? TKI wind op zee will introduce us to the rest of the offshore energy network, how it works, how the efficiency can be increased and how we can reduce the costs.
“TKI Wind op Zee stimuleert, verbindt en ondersteunt Nederlandse bedrijven en kennisinstellingen bij de ontwikkeling en toepassing van innovaties voor een snelle transitie naar een duurzaam, betrouwbaar en betaalbaar energiesysteem als het gaat om offshore wind.”
‘TKI (Top consortium knowledge and Innovations) Wind op Zee stimulates, connects and supports Dutch companies and knowledge institutions in the development and application of innovations for a fast transition to a sustainable, reliable and affordable energy system when it comes to offshore wind.’

TU/e and Strategic Area Energy
The energy strategic area envisions a sustainable world that can produce enough energy for its consumption, unimpeded by scarce resources and without any impact on the climate. Our research will help pave the way for this challenging transition. Many roads lead to this future. That is why we are exploring a broad spectrum of promising technologies. In the short term, we expect to generate novel technologies for more sustainable use of existing resources. This research focuses on the built environment and fuel technologies. Somewhat further away, our research will deliver novel solar cells and other new energy conversion technologies. In the longer run, our fusion research will contribute to a sustainable transition.
Universiteits Fonds Eindhoven
The Universiteitsfonds Eindhoven (UFe) aims to do everything within its power to support education, research and student culture at the TU/e. UFe does this in close cooperation with companies and industry in the region. With the aids the UFe offers, it enables to realize events which could not be realized without its support.
TKI Gas
One of the main goals of TKI Gas is the realization of a substantial contribution of green gas to the energy grid. In this way, TKI Gas wants to provide a competitive advantage for The Netherlands and to establish a strong export position in the fields of knowledgem technology, innovation and trade. An ambitious, but fair goal is the 10 x 10, twice an increase tenfold of 10% green gas. This means going from 30 million m3 gas per year now to 300 billion m3 gas in 2030 and to 30 billion m3 gas in 2050. Next to this, TKI Gas strives to find a balance between Discovery, Development en Deployment.
The industry is a large-scale consumer and therefore plays a plural role in the transition towards sustainable energy. The energy use should become more efficient within this sector because of this. Industry should start using sustainable energy instead of energy from fossil sources. For Europe, this means that we need to convert from warmth driven processes to electronically driven processes. Next to this, more efficient use of resources will lead to more energy efficiency.
TKI Industrie en Energie is a collaboration between industry, universities and knowledge institutions that aims to increase energy saving and efficiency in industry.

Innofest
Innofest creates living labs out of festivals to support innovation. A festival is a temporary mini society. Just as in the real world, their are challenges in, amongst others, energy and waste. Festival visitors behave in certain ways like they would do in the real world: they move, eat and sleep. The difference with the outside world is the fence around the festival area. This makes festivals the ultimate testing ground to work together on prototypes and experimental techniques. And if the idea works at the festival, it could also work in the real world. Start-ups, companies, entrepreneurs and students come together at the festivals to test the (responsible) prototypes and to find solutions for the challenges the festival and entrepreuneurs in the region meet.
TNO
“By far the biggest challenge worldwide during the next few decades is the transition from a fossil-fuel based energy system to sustainable alternatives. Over the coming period the focus will be on hybrid energy systems, whereby we will be combining different fossil and sustainable sources. TNO wants to employ innovations, both technical and non-technical, to accelerate the transition to a fully sustainable energy supply,” says Mart van Bracht, managing director Energy. Industry and government ask us to deliver the technology and knowledge for this. For many years we have been researching sustainable and, on route to this, hybrid energy systems.

Differ
We work on a future in which clean energy is available to everybody. Our climate changes due to CO2 emissions from fossil fuels. At the same time, the world population – and consequently the worldwide energy demand – continue to grow. The demand for sustainable, relevant energy solutions is considerable.
We carry out fundamental scientific research into new and improved energy technology for the future. In collaboration with our knowledge partners and industry we help to accelerate the transition to a sustainable society.
Ecovat
Ecovat is an innovative company with a unique new system, namely a large scale, underground, thermal energy storage system for sustainable heating. Large scale means one Ecovat system can provide sustainable heating for 100 up to 1.000 households. At times when energy is abundant and cheap, the storage is charged by heating up the water inside the tank. Due to its good insulation, its scale, and its unique heat transfer mechanism, the energy can be stored efficiently for long periods of time whilst maintaining stratification. This allows for the seasonal storage of heat and makes a conventional heating system obsolete.
FlexiCity
We use highly sophisticated algorithms, developed at KU Leuven and UC Berkeley, to unite your and your neighbours’ TCL in a large virtual power plant.
Being part of this highly valuable flexible energy source, you play a critical role in the promotion of renewable energies, such as wind and solar, which are dependent on the weather.
Following years of state-of-the-art research, with succesfull field trials using 250 households in the Belgian LINEAR project and the UC Berkeley dorm rooms, we are finally ready to solve the energy and climate issues our world is currently facing.
Heat Power
The competitiveness and environmental impact of heat intensive industrial processes can be much improved by reducing the use of energy. Efficient and fast responsive co-generation systems are however not yet available for small scale industries in the range of 250kW-2MW electric and 750kW-6MW thermal power. Heat Power satisfies that need and developed the Rankine Compression Gas turbine (RCG), which is capable of providing heat and power for industrial processes at highly reduced fuel cost and CO2 emissions. The RCG system is truly unique, as it is capable of providing both steam and power at fast response times. Its multi fuel capability allows for application in waste streams, enabling manufacturers to achieve higher resource utilization, reduced cost of energy and green manufacturing.
CommUnity
Develop your career, gain knowledge and discover solutions with like minded individuals to change the energy game for a better future.
The challenge is big, but our goal is simple: to achieve a sustainable energy future for Europe. Innovation is the solution. New ideas, products and services that make a real difference, new businesses and new people to deliver them to market.
At InnoEnergy we support and invest in innovation at every stage of the journey – from classroom to end-customer. With our network of partners we build connections across Europe, bringing together inventors and industry, graduates and employers, researchers and entrepreneurs, businesses and markets.
