Speaker: Prof. dr. ir. Ad H.M. Verkooije, Professor (Chair of Nuclear Power Engineering), Process & Energy Laboratory, Delft University of Technology, The Netherlands

In the past few decades, the Dutch electricity industry has made significant progress in the reduction of emissions from the electric industry. At the same time, the economics have remained competitive. The new challenge of our world concerns escalating CO2 emissions. In this seminar, Prof. dr. ir. Ad H.M. Verkooije will discuss this trend and show how significant progress has been made in energy savings. Other means of CO2 reduction will be presented as well. He will share the Dutch government’s plans for transition towards a low CO2 emission economy. Last but not least, he will present his university’s research contributions on the subject.
