Energiedelen Vlaanderen

Energiedelen Vlaanderen for KCVS (Kenniscentrum Vlaamse Steden)

Energiedelen Vlaanderen delineates the challenges for cities and municipalities when it comes to implementing energy sharing within apartment buildings. This study, done for KCVS (Kenniscentrum Vlaamse Steden), explores the different possibilities of sharing energy between residents.

Enable eVeryone's Engagemet in the eneRgY transitiON

Every1: Enable eVeryone's Engagemet in the eneRgY transitiON

Every1 makes a detailed and data-informed assessment to understand the needs, barriers, and readiness level of different actors such as DSOs, cities, (future) connected active consumers, energy communities or potential new entrants, and local/regional authorities in local ecosystems to use digital solutions. Based on this assessment, specific learning paths and dedicated co-created information, engagement, and bespoke capacity building material will be delivered. Targeted guidance on optimisation of ecosystem operation will be developed. Ecosystems will be provided with and engaged in communication and dissemination activities in their local language, guided and supported in developing learning paths, as well as on how to use and adapt the engagement and capacity building material for wider uptake and continued use after the project.

Antwerp

Energy sharing in the City of Antwerp

The Flemish government published in February 2021 a draft decree amending the Flemish Energy Decree, partially transposing the EU Directive 2018/2001 on renewable energy and renewable energy communities. Following its publication, the City of Antwerp wished to investigate whether and under which conditions a positive business case can be worked out for the joint production and sharing of renewable energy in various types of apartment buildings.
Together with Witteveen+Bos, Th!nk E performed a technical and financial analysis of different generic concepts for sharing of renewable energy within apartment buildings. Th!nk E worked specifically on simulating different energy sharing scenarios using advanced simulation tools, while making sure the results of the simulations are translated into clear and concrete conclusions for various stakeholders.
The result of the analysis is an advisory report (in Dutch).

Clean Energy for EU Islands Secretariat

Welcome to the 2nd phase of the Clean Energy for EU Islands Secretariat! While big nations and corporates announce their net-zero ambitions, the Secretariat continues the work of its predecessor to demonstrate the importance of island decarbonisation. Visit euislands.eu to learn more about the Secretariat's objectives!

Bat2Portal

Bat2Portal brochures provide information about the possibilities as well as points of attention while integrating neighbourhood batteries in residential areas and industrial zones in Flemish Brabant, Belgium.

The information made available through this brochure is the result of extensive research into neighbourhood batteries led by Th!nk E in cooperation with Green Park Energy, Fieldfisher and FINN Agency. The research was completed between August 2019 and June 2020 and was possible thanks to the subsidy of the Province of Flemish Brabant, aims achieving the environmental objectives by 2040.

Musegrids

MUSE GRIDS aims to be an industry/social driven LIGHTHOUSE PROJECT for the transition towards a sustainable energy landscape. It aims to demonstrate, system-wide and in real-life operational conditions, a set of both technological and non-technological solutions adapted to local circumstances targeting local urban energy grids. Two large-scale pilot projects are implemented in two different European regions, in urban (OSIMO) and rural (OUD HEVERLEE) contexts, both with weak connection to the national grid and energy markets. Th!nk E manages the Oud Heverlee pilot where it is responsible for user engagement and technical installations.

ostend

Ostend Science Park

The Science Park in Ostend is a R&D and industry site in development. The challenge Witteveen+Bos, Th!nk E and BDO accepted, was the development of a fossil-free energy concept. Th!nk E was in charge of the simulations and optimisations to identify the viable business cases and cooperation model.

mechelen

Mechelen Keerdok

Mechelen Keerdok is a brownfield development close to the city centre. The city of Mechelen tendered a request for an optimal energy concept for the building with parking, offices and retail. Th!nk E worked with I.Leco and SuReal to deliver the study, where Th!nk E focused on the energy system optimisation and dynamic sizing of components and cooperation strategies.

Empower: support to storage technology selection

Part of the EMPOWER project is the development of an educational tour on storage and renewable energy. Together with Imtech, Th!nk E made the selection based on relevance and complementarity to explain different forms of energy storage, technical feasibility and potential support in case of technical or operational problems. Th!nk E further prepared the information sheets.

logigrid

Logigrid for VIL.be

The Flemish logistic sector is greening its energy supply as part of its targets to become sustainable and climate neutral. Concepts as energy trading, flexibility exchange and its valorisation are analysed and optimised by Th!nk E, together with Powerdale and Witteveen+Bos. The project will assess up to 5 geographically spread logistic clusters in Flanders.

interconnect

InterConnect: smart homes, buildings and grids

Interconnect aims to develop and demonstrate advanced solutions for connecting digital homes and buildings with the electricity sector. Th!nk E manages the KPI development and the assessment of the pilots as per these KPIs, overviews the Belgian pilots and develops the nanogrid pilot that has DC and AC connected devices.
