TU Delft crowns best climate and energy publication

An algorithm that ensures a higher energy yield from wind farms and a study showing that not only fuel consumption but also seasonal effects play an important role in optimising flight trajectories and altitudes. In one sentence, these are the two winning publications of the Best Climate & Energy Paper Award. The award ceremony, which took place on Wednesday 15 March at TU Delft, was entirely devoted to innovations, large and small, that contribute to accelerating the energy transition and curbing climate change. With about a thousand climate and energy scientists, TU Delft is one of the largest research institutes in Europe in this field. This gives TU Delft leverage to come up with solutions to complex and urgent climate challenges. In 2021, it was decided to make the most of this by allocating €22 million for the next ten years to the Climate Action Programme. In addition, TU Delft is investing another €100 million in.
