18. 45.000 BC Prehistoric living, shelters and wood fired
heating
Energy Efficiency in buildings
20. Until the 60s of the 20th century, many
houses in the Netherlands and
Belgium were heated with coal stoves.
21. 1. Effective Insulation
2. High-Performance
Windows
3. Tight Construction and
Ducts
4. Efficient Heating and
Cooling Equipment
5. Lighting and
Appliances
22. Last decade, a zero-energy building: a building with zero
net energy consumption and zero carbon emissions
annually
Next step: energy delivering house
A house delivers more power and heat than it
requires
23. Smart-grids FUTURE
Connecting energy
supply and demand
in a city in a
decentralized way
Smart
interconnection
between residential
homes, offices and
industries, and e-
mobility (batteries)

29. Innovation hampers
1908 the Model T
had fuel economy of
11 Liters per 100 km
2008 cars drive on
average on 8,3 Liters
per 100 km
100 years of
innovation resulted
in 13% fuel
reduction
30.
31. New technologies developed
New:
Bio-fuel mobility
Electric mobility
Reasons:
energy security,
less oil dependency
green house gas
reduction
32. Bio-fuels
1ste generation
Biodiesel (vegetable
oils and animal fats)
and ethanol (corn or
sugarcane)
Problem: food versus
fuel
production, deforestati

2nd generation:
biofuels algae and
cellulosic biomass
Problem:
expensive, less

available, pollution, hig

35. Electric mobility
Electric vehicles are
100% emission-free
having no polluting
byproducts,
are more fuel-
efficient,
get a better mileage,
and have less
moving parts to
PROBLEM:
wear out

39. For the development of this
technology a knowledge economy
For the development
is required
of sustainable
technology a
knowledge economy
is required
40. A knowledge
economy creates
ideas and
technical
knowledge that
is applied
through
innovation into
new products
and services
resulting in new
economic
41. One of main the main problems is:
Transferring research into innovation
into new products and/or services
42. Besides:
their is a gap
between
universities and
companies, and
entrepreneurshi
p is lacking
44. To become innovative and
successful
An economic and institutional regime to
provide incentives for the efficient use of existing
and new knowledge and the flourishing of
entrepreneurship;
An educated and skilled population to
create, share, and use knowledge well;
An efficient innovation system of
firms, research centres, universities, consultants
and other organizations to tap into the growing
stock of global knowledge, assimilate and adapt it
to local needs, and create new technology;
Information and communication technology to
facilitate the effective creation, dissemination, and
processing of information
