Kiwa makes the energy transition tangible

Energy Transition

Sustainable energy sources and carriers are increasingly being used in combination, such as energy from the sun, wind, heat, hydrogen and green gas. How does your organization handle this intelligently?
Kiwa makes the energy transition tangible. We do this with tailored advice, testing, certification and training. Together, we harness our innovative strength and future vision to create concrete, achievable products and services.
Electric car charging

Energy: Consumption

The energy transition, for example in industry, demands a lot from both consumers and producers developing products. What is wise and feasible?
Transport & distribution of energy

Energy: Transport and distribution

As a grid operator, operator of hydrogen refueling stations and in the industry, the shift to hydrogen brings many challenges. What is technically and economically feasible?
Energy generation

Energy: Generation and storage

Energy generation, storage and usage are increasingly being carried out by companies themselves. How do you seamlessly integrate these processes?
Hydrogen fuel cell testing

Hydrogen

The transition to hydrogen involves many factors, such as technical development, economic feasibility and safety. We make this tangible in our test labs.

Biomethane

Biomethane plays a key role in the energy transition. Producing biomethane and injecting it into the natural gas network requires careful monitoring and mandatory quality controls. We make this concrete through audits, sampling, gas analyses and gas cameras.
Heatpump testing

Heat pumps

The entire heat pump system must meet quality requirements and European regulations. How do you demonstrate safety and performance?

What is the energy transition?

The energy transition, or energy system transformation, is the shift from using fossil fuels such as oil, gas and coal to sustainable energy sources like solar and wind energy. This transition is necessary to combat climate change and ensure a sustainable future. It requires significant changes in technology, infrastructure, policy and behavior to make energy consumption more efficient and environmentally friendly.

Green gas: A circular opportunity for water boards

Water boards treat vast amounts of wastewater daily, leaving behind sewage sludge. This sludge presents an opportunity to contribute to the energy transition by digesting it into biogas, which can then be upgraded to green gas. By doing so, water boards can make their energy supply more sustainable and play a circular role in the energy market.

4 Reasons for waste processors to produce green gas

Waste processors play a key role in the circular economy. By converting organic waste into green gas, you can contribute to the energy transition while making your operations more sustainable. Additionally, green gas provides an extra revenue stream and helps optimize the use of residual waste.

Trends and developments in green gas

Green gas is playing an increasingly important role in the Dutch energy transition. The government is actively promoting a mix of renewable energy sources, including wind, solar and green gas. The goal is to produce two billion cubic meters (BCM) of green gas annually in the Netherlands from 2030 onwards. Let’s dive deeper into the trends, developments, and opportunities.
