Abstract:
Environmental law originally developed in a fragmented way (sectoral legislation protecting water, soil or air). This fragmented approach towards environmental protection caused problems. Citizens and businesses applying for a permit are confronted with a range of procedures with a variety of different time limits, assessment criteria and legal remedies. Comparative law research shows that the integration of legislation in the field of environmental law is a growing trend. Policymakers feel the necessity to integrate decision-making in order to optimise the protection of the environment. The first part of this article contains a brief overview of the concept of an integrated process for the granting of environmental permits. The second part discusses the idea of environmental model 4 permit, which has been but forward in the Netherlands. It is questionable if this specific concept of integrated environmental permitting can be achieved within the constraints of Dutch administrative law.

Abstract:
Environmental law does not necessarily promote innovations that lead to drastic improvement of environmental performance (eco-innovations). The focus of EU environmental law on best available techniques is exemplary. Businesses often complain that environmental law hampers innovation, even innovations that have tremendous positive impacts on the environment. This article reports on a study we did to see whether this complaint is justified. We did a literature study into the relationship between innovation and environmental law to find out whether and how environmental law can promote innovation. Then, we did six detailed case studies into recent innovation projects in the Netherlands, to assess whether and if so how environmental law in practice was a stimulus or an obstacle to these innovations. The research shows that current environmental law does not foster eco- innovation. It also shows that environmental law indeed sometimes hampers eco-innovations, but that a transparent process, involving all stakeholders from the start, limits this risk and allows for circumnavigation of the possible legal obstacles.

Abstract:
Abstract The Ocean Cleanup is a Dutch non-profit organisation on a mission to develop and deploy pioneering technology to rid the oceans of plastic. Considering the unique nature of the activity and the technology involved, it is not immediately self-evident which international regulations are directly applicable to this novel use of the high seas. The Dutch government, however, pledged to support the endeavour, and entered into a tailor-made Agreement with The Ocean Cleanup in order to ensure that its activities are conducted in accordance with general international law on maritime safety, the protection of the marine environment, and other legitimate uses of the high seas. This article reflects critically on the parties’ choice to base the Agreement ‘by analogy’ on the Law of the Sea Convention’s provisions on marine scientific research, and analyses the relationship of its core provisions with applicable international law, as well as identifying potential gaps.

Abstract:
In absence of any global treaty, the bilateral investment treaties are playing an important role of regulating foreign investments in the host countries. According to the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development, there are 2361 bilateral investment treaties are in force and like other members of the World Trade Organization, Malaysia and Netherlands also signed bilateral investment treaties to facilitate trade. The primary purpose of economic globalization is the economic development of the developing and least-developed countries as well as to facilitate benefits of the home states. Malaysia foreign investment laws and bilateral investment treaties mainly protects foreign investors, however, neither of them has any specific provision of protecting environment. The Environmental Quality Act 1974 standard in Malaysia is not high like many developed countries such as Netherlands and significantly lack any provision to sustainable development. This article addresses two questions: (a) do the bilateral investment treaties of Malaysia and Netherlands has any specific provision to protect the environment? (b) should the environmental protection be considered during the entry of foreign investment in Malaysia and Netherlands? Using doctrinal research method, we critically analysed twenty-one bilateral investment treaties signed by both Malaysia and Netherlands with same countries to explore whether there is any reference of protecting environment. We find that the existing Malaysia and Netherlands bilateral investment treaties have provisions to promote and protect foreign investments but have no reference (except Netherlands-United Arab Emirates BIT) of protecting environment. Therefore, both governments should consider this important factor while signing any future bilateral investment treaties.

Abstract:
By 2050, the world population is projected to exceed nine billion and sustainable development measures are therefore critical. There has been a clear consensus internationally regarding the importance of assessing projects’ environmental impacts as a mean to promote sustainable development. The environmental impact assessment (EIA) system has a fundamental role of being a tool for reaching sustainable development. Therefore, continuously enhancing its quality by evaluating the system is important. This study focused on the quality of the review process in the Swedish EIA system, as it is the last step of quality assurance before the final decision-making. Currently, various authorities are responsible for assessing the quality of the environmental impact statement (EIS), something that can naturally lead to varied review qualities. The purpose of this Master Thesis was to question the quality of the current review process in Sweden’s EIA system and raise awareness as to how it possibly can be improved. An approach to promote consistency in the review process exists in the Dutch EIA system, where a national independent authority built up of experts is set to critically review EISs of complex proposed projects. Objectives of this study were to contribute with research on whether or not Sweden should implement an independent national commission to review the quality of EISs, to identify participants’ views and attitudes regarding the subject and to analyze whether or not it is favorable and possible to change the current system. A comparison with the Dutch review process along with eight semi-structured interviews were completed, and results showed that it is likely that the Swedish review process can improve by implementing a national independent review authority and thus increase the current quality and uniformity. The study also found that it would not lead to any major losses to the current system. By using a national authority, standardized working procedures can be developed and independence can be reached through utilizing impartial reviewers. However, feasible problems include funding regulations and having to modify Swedish EIA legislation. It is also estimated that a national commission would not have sufficient resources to review all incoming EISs, hence, restrictions are required.
År 2050 förväntas världens befolkning överstiga nio miljarder och det är mycket viktigt att vidta åtgärder mot en hållbar utveckling. Det har skett en tydlig internationell enighet om vikten av att bedöma projekts miljöpåverkan som ett medel för att främja en hållbar utveckling. Miljökonsekvensbeskrivningssystemet har en grundläggande roll som verktyg för att nå en hållbar utveckling. Därför är det viktigt att kontinuerligt förbättra dess kvalitet genom att utvärdera systemet. Denna studie fokuserar på kvaliteten av granskningsprocessen i det svenska MKB-systemet, eftersom det är det sista steget i kvalitetssäkringen innan det slutliga beslutsfattandet. För närvarande har olika myndigheter ansvaret för att bedöma kvaliteten på miljökonsekvensbeskrivningen (MKB), vilket naturligtvis kan leda till varierande kvalitet på handläggningen. Syftet med detta examensarbete var att ifrågasätta kvaliteten av den pågående granskningen i det svenska MKB-systemet och öka medvetenheten om hur det möjligen kan förbättras. En strategi för att främja likvärdighet i granskningen finns i det nederländska MKB-systemet, där en oberoende nationell myndighet uppbyggd av experter är satt till att kritiskt granska miljökonsekvensbeskrivningar av komplexa föreslagna projekt. Målet för denna studie var att bidra med forskning om huruvida Sverige bör införa en oberoende nationell kommission för att granska kvaliteten på miljökonsekvensbeskrivningar, att identifiera deltagarnas åsikter och attityder kring ämnet och att analysera om det är fördelaktigt och möjligt att modifiera det nuvarande systemet. En jämförelse med den nederländska granskningsprocessen tillsammans med åtta semistrukturerade intervjuer genomfördes, och resultaten visade att det är troligt att den svenska granskningsprocessen kan förbättras genom att införa en nationell oberoende granskningsmyndighet och därmed öka den nuvarande standarden och enhetligheten. Studien visade också att det inte skulle leda till några större förluster av det nuvarande systemet. Genom att använda en nationell myndighet, kan standardiserade arbetsmetoder utvecklas och självständighet kan nås genom att utnyttja objektiva granskare. Möjliga problem är finansieringsbestämmelser och behovet av att ändra svensk miljölagstiftning. Det är också sannolikt att en nationell kommission inte skulle ha tillräckliga resurser för att granska alla inkommande miljökonsekvensbeskrivningar, i och med det krävs begränsningar.

Abstract:
La certificación de Comercio Justo ha transformado el comercio convencional e impactado en la forma de trabajar de agricultores, exportadores y trabajadores dedicados al sector agroalimentario. La creciente demanda de productos sostenibles ha impulsado una mayor cantidad de productos certificados, entre ellos el banano. A pesar de que, este movimiento enfocado en los seres humanos y la sostenibilidad social, económica y medio ambiental de las sociedades no es un modelo comercial nuevo, aún existen personas que no tienen conocimiento de la existencia de los productos certificados por el Comercio Justo ni la labor que cumple mediante sus reglas establecidas. El objetivo del presente estudio es analizar el efecto del Comercio Justo en las exportaciones de bananos orgánicos producidos en Piura hacia Países Bajos durante el periodo 2013-2018, haciendo énfasis principalmente en 3 principios que deben cumplir las empresas exportadoras y asociaciones si desean comercializar sus productos con el sello de certificación, los cuales son creación de oportunidades para productores desfavorecidos, precio justo y respeto por el medio ambiente. La metodología de la investigación es de enfoque mixto. La información cuantitativa se analizó a través del modelo, en tanto que, para el desarrollo cualitativo se realizó entrevistas semi estructuradas a exportadores del sector. A partir, de la discusión de resultados del desarrollo cuantitativo y cualitativo se concluyó que la creación de oportunidades y el respeto por el medio ambiente tuvieron un efecto positivo en las exportaciones de banano orgánico de Piura hacia Países Bajos durante el periodo 2013-2018.
Fairtrade certification has transformed conventional trade and impacted the way of working of farmers, exporters and workers dedicated to the agri-food sector. The growing demand for sustainable products has fueled a greater number of certified products, including bananas. Despite the fact that this movement that focuses on human beings and the social, economic and environmental sustainability of societies is not a new business model, there are still people who are unaware of either the existence of Fair-Trade certified products or the work that it fulfills through its established rules. The objective of this study is to analyze the effect of Fairtrade on the exports of organic bananas produced in Piura to the Netherlands during the period 2013-2018, mainly emphasizing 3 principles that exporting companies must comply with and associations if they want to have the certification seal on their products, which are creating opportunities for disadvantaged producers, fair prices and respect for the environment. The research methodology follows a mixed method design. Quantitative data was analyzed through the gravitational model and for the qualitative development, semi-structured interviews were carried out with exporters in the. From the discussion of quantitative and qualitative development results, it was concluded that create opportunities and respect for the environment had a positive effects on organic banana exports from Piura to the Netherlands during the period 2013-2018.

Abstract:
This dissertation attempts to explain why cross-national variation exists in government approaches to dealing with illegal drugs. As other scholars have shown, several domestic and international political factors do account for some of this variance. However less is known of the effect that bureaucratic dominance and political institutions may have on drug policy. This research argues that bureaucrats define problems in ways that make their services the best possible solution to policymakers. Mediating the ability of bureaucrats to influence drug policy outcomes are political institutions. Certain institutional structures foster a competitive policymaking environment while others foster a more cooperative policymaking environment. In the former of these, law enforcement approaches to the drug problem are often retained as the status quo because competition between policy actors prevents consideration of alternatives. In the latter environment however, prevention, treatment, and harm reduction approaches to the drug problem are developed because cooperation between policymakers allows other actors. namely public health bureaucrats.to influence drug policy decision making. To test this argument, I constructed an original dataset that includes over 4,000 observations of drug policy in 101 democracies. Institutional data on intergovernmental relations, regime type, political bargaining, electoral design, and cameralism were regressed on 6 different drug policy indices: law enforcement, deterrence-based prevention, abstinence-based treatment, educationbased prevention, substitution-based treatment, and harm reduction. While controlling for government resource capacity, severity of the drug problem, international pressure, and political ideology, I found that institutions explain a portion of the variance in drug policy outcomes. Providing in-depth information about these phenomena is a large amount of field data I collected while interviewing 155 politicians, bureaucrats, interest group leaders, and service providers. Respondents from all four of the case countries examined in this research.including United States, Canada, Austria, and Netherlands.report that bureaucrats play a major role in the formation of drug policy. Which bureaucrats have the most influence on policymakers is largely a function of domestic political conditions, international political factors, and political institutions.

Abstract:
AbstractThe Netherlands has a strong third sector and a long tradition of organizations pursuing social and/or environmental goals, often considered social enterprises. However, the country lacks a common definition and framework for social enterprises, and rather considers social entrepreneurship as a particular branch of entrepreneurship, leaving aside social enterprises incorporating as non-profits and cooperatives. Because of this narrow approach, many social enterprises not incorporated as social businesses are overlooked by the Dutch government but also by scholars. In this chapter, we adopt the approach of the EMES school of thought and review the legal forms that the Netherlands offers for social enterprises to incorporate. In early 2022, Dutch social enterprises have five options to incorporate: (1) private limited company, (2) public limited company, (3) cooperative, (4) foundation, and (5) association. Besides reviewing each of these forms and their implications when applied to social enterprises, we reflect on the place of social economy in the Netherlands. We also present ongoing legal developments for a better institutionalization of social enterprises in the Netherlands. We end our reflections by suggesting that Dutch social enterprises could receive the appropriate mechanisms, controls, and recognition they deserve by combining several existing labels and certifications.

Abstract:
AbstractDuring the preindustrial era one of the major migration waves headed eastward to Eastern Europe, where scores of migrants, in their pursuit of happiness, hoped to fulfil their dreams, have their own farm or set up a company, achieve a higher social status, and benefit from religious freedom and tolerance. The first wave of migration was connected with German colonization and the establishment of settlements following the German law. The alluringly large expanses of “pristine” land, together with tax privileges and the prospects of relative autonomy, attracted scores of bold, enterprising and hard-working settlers to relocate to the East. Most of them were peasants and townsfolk from the German states and the Netherlands, but there were also Jews escaping discrimination in Western Europe as well as West-European Protestants and Catholics attracted by religious tolerance in the East. Prospects of freedom and economic success encouraged them all to choose Poland and the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth as their second homeland.

Abstract:
Abstract In Petten, the Netherlands, a Molybdenum Production Facility (MPF) has been realised since 1994 by the Nuclear Research and Consultancy Group (NRG) in close co-operation with Mallinckrodt, a company that produces isotopes for medical applications at the same site. The facility is operated by Mallinckrodt personnel under the license of NRG. At this moment the facility has a weekly production rate of 0,4 PBq (10,500 Ci). The management of the radioactive waste treatment, developed by Mallinckrodt, NRG and COVRA, has been one of the key issues during the development of the production facility. COVRA is the Central Organisation for Radioactive Waste in the Netherlands and responsible for the execution of the radwaste policy of the Dutch government. For solid and liquid low level waste (LLW) the existing route at COVRA was available. For the handling of solid and liquid intermediate level waste (ILW) from the MPF, a new system for transport, interim storage and treatment had to be developed. Therefore the Mo-waste project was established in 1994. This project included the following issues: • development, construction and operation of a filling and packaging station for liquid waste at the production site, • design, engineering, fabrication and testing of Type A-transport containers for both the solid and liquid ILW, • modification of transport vehicle, • design and realisation of interim storage and treatment facilities for both the solid and liquid ILW at the COVRA site. At this moment the completed facilities have successfully undergone the hot testing phase. The experiences achieved confirmed the rightness of the choice to integrate the COVRA waste management concept in the Molybdenum production cycle.

Abstract:
In 2006, in the Netherlands the Betuweline will be realized between the port of Rotterdam and the German Hinterland. The Betuweline is a dedicated high-speed freight railway for all kinds of freight transport, including hazardous materials. The Betuweline crosses multiple built environments and comprises 5 tunnels. As a result, safety is a main issue for various stakeholders such as railway engineers, spatial planners and emergency responders. For this railway, however, the juridical character of the safety topics differs widely from (hard) legal risk criteria such as individual risk to (soft) safety guidelines such as accessibility by emergency responders. In this article, safety topics of the Betuweline are described and analyzed with regard to the available laws and guidelines in order to search for opportunities to reduce societal risk and society’s vulnerability.

Abstract:
Scale model wave basin testing is often employed in the development and validation of large scale offshore vessels and structures by the oil and gas, military and marine industries. A basin model test requires less time, resources and risk than a full scale test while providing real and accurate data for model validation. As the development of floating wind turbine technology progresses in order to capture the vast deepwater wind energy resource, it is clear that model testing will be essential for the economical and efficient advancement of this technology. However, the scale model testing of floating wind turbines requires one to accurately simulate the wind and wave environments, structural flexibility and wind turbine aerodynamics, and thus requires a comprehensive scaling methodology. This paper presents a unified methodology for Froude scale testing of floating wind turbines under combined wind and wave loading. First, an overview of the scaling relationships employed for the environment, floater and wind turbine are presented. Afterward, a discussion is presented concerning suggested methods for manufacturing a high-quality, low turbulence Froude scale wind environment in a wave basin to facilitate simultaneous application of wind and waves to the model. Subsequently, the difficulties of scaling the highly Reynolds number-dependent wind turbine aerodynamics is presented in addition to methods for tailoring the turbine and wind characteristics to best emulate the full scale condition. Lastly, the scaling methodology is demonstrated using results from 1/50th scale floating wind turbine testing performed at MARIN’s (Maritime Research Institute Netherlands) Offshore Basin which tested the 126 m rotor diameter NREL (National Renewable Energy Lab) horizontal axis wind turbine atop three floating platforms: a tension-leg platform, a spar-buoy and a semi-submersible. The results demonstrate the methodology’s ability to adequately simulate full scale global response of floating wind turbine systems.

Abstract:
Abstract In the Netherlands, a large number of onshore wells are near urban areas or close to forests where environmental emission and noise reduction are important to consider. With more than 23 different well site locations to be abandoned, a significant amount of collaboration is required to ensure there is minimal interruption and impact to the local community and the environment. To achieve this, the operator together with Baker Hughes as the project management lead, formulated a unique, low-impact solution with fully electrified equipment that mostly uses grid power. Alongside other service partners, the majority of the onsite equipment are electrically driven, such as the rigless well abandonment unit, cement pumps, ancillary equipment, and the slickline unit. A noise dampener and decibel readers were put in place to minimize and track sound emissions. Such collaboration and integration with all providers were carefully identified and mitigated through a series of non-technical risks (NTRs) to ensure compliance with local regulations. Extra steps were taken to ensure that smell and noise remain unnoticed by the surrounding environment. Frequent communications are sent to the public by the operator to keep everyone informed prior to any mobilization. After a one-year campaign, there have been zero LTI, zero accidents, zero non-compliance incidents and above all, safe and secured end-of-life oil wells in an urban setting with many more to follow suit. This paper will provide insight into the integrated operations of a well abandonment project in a unique urban setting and the challenges to successfully abandon wells of varying complexity. This project is to be accomplished in compliance with the local mining and environmental regulations with no remaining liabilities, all while limiting total project costs. The supply chain stepped up by providing a cost-effective solution through multi-party collaboration, multi-skilling, technology innovation, and logistical solutions. The project planning, start-up phase, and an overview of the first year of operations will be presented.

Abstract:
The number of social enterprises is increasing rapidly. Social enterprises are looking for new, innovative and economically sustainable ways to tackle structural societal challenges that generally fall outside the direct focus and objectives of the public and private sector. Social enterprises are primarily mission-driven, where profit is not a goal in itself but a means of creating social impact with regard to a specific social problem. The intended impact areas of social enterprises broadly range from poverty reduction, sustainability, healthcare, or labor participation of vulnerable groups. With respect to the latter impact area, many initiatives have been taken across Europe to prevent and combat marginalization of vulnerable groups as a result of long unemployment spells, which may cause financial and social pressure, as well as decay of physical and psychological health conditions. Nevertheless, the nature and extent of these initiatives vary considerably across countries (CEDEFOP, 2018). Social enterprises, in collaboration with other relevant stakeholders such as ‘conventional’ companies or local governments, can play a key role in addressing these challenges. This proposal builds on research that was completed earlier this year at HU concerning the scaling of social enterprises with a particular focus on work integration of people with a distance to the labor market (so-called WISEs) (e.g. people with low qualifications, young people disengaged from education, people with mental or physical disabilities, refugees, former prisoners, former addicts, or people who have difficulties finding a job due to their age etc.). One of the outcomes of this research showed that it is difficult for WISEs to transcend its societal impact beyond the local level. In practice, the effective realization of both social and economic value is not easy for many WISEs, but the interaction with and between different actors in the external environment or ecosystem also plays a crucial role in its success. More research is needed on what works in successfully addressing the work integration of vulnerable groups in different parts of Europe, and under what conditions. The aim is to come to a joint EU research proposal, in which WISEs play a central role, to contribute to innovative and more structural solutions for labor participation of vulnerable groups.

Abstract:
The Netherlands Ministry of Defence (MoD) has issued an Operational Energy Strategy (OES) with ambition targets for energy independence and improvement of energy efficiency during the life time of naval platforms. A target is given in 2030 of 20 % reduced dependence on fossil fuels and in 2050 of 70 % reduced dependence on fossil fuels, compared to 2010. More stringent environmental emission (NOx, CO2, etc.) requirements are to be expected as a result from IMO and (local) political regulations. In the last decades the power consumption on board of naval platforms increased substantially as well as the complexity of integrated energy systems. Market surveys shows that the evolution of commercial green technologies are promising but have to be demonstrated in the coming years on low power and energy levels. They will not be de-risked in depth or well proven to be successful in time to be selected for the Royal Netherlands Navy (RNLN) new naval projects (2019 – 2025). Furthermore, new technologies as energy resources and carriers (H2, LNG, methanol, power-to-liquid (PTL), etc.) or new system technologies (DC on high voltage level, fuel cell systems, waste energy recovery, etc.) require a new approach for integration aspects like hazard and safety cases and energy efficiency. This is because the energy demand on board of naval platforms in several military operational modes differ from the merchant and off-shore branch. In this paper an approach for an adaptable energy platform is described to design a new naval platform based on nowadays proven technology as fossil fuels that can be transformed during life time that can fulfill the expectations and requirements of the coming decades (non-fossil fuels, zero emission, improved energy efficiency). Aspects as a naval energy index as reference will be discussed as well as an evaluation of new technologies for new naval platform integration design parameters, such as power or energy demands, consequences of energy resources, energy control as well as build in ship construction safety measures.

Abstract:
All radioactive waste in the Netherlands is collected by COVRA (acronym for Central Organisation for Radioactive Waste) that operates a facility for treatment of waste including interim storage buildings for HLW, LILW and TENORM (Calcinate and U3O8). Like many other waste management organisations, COVRA developed and adopted different waste storage strategies for different types of waste. The basis of all strategies is Isolation, Control and Surveillance (ICS), a principle aimed at minimization of dose to operators and the public alike. The stacking of waste in the storage buildings directly follows from this principle. To minimize radiation exposure of employees, waste is stacked in blocks. In these block the packages with low dose rates are placed on the outside and are shielding packages with higher dose rates and neutron sources inside. The packages with the lowest dose rate are stacked against the outer walls to minimize radiation into the environment. In 2004, a novel Non-Destructive Assay (NDA) method was used to validate the applied waste storage strategies in terms of spatial dose rate distribution. With this method measurements were performed in one of the interim storage modules for LILW. The dose rate at a height of 6m, mainly responsible for the sky-shine at the site boundary, was somewhat higher then expected. Based on the experience and feedback, the NDA method was developed further, into the present INDSS-R (acronym for INDoor Survey System – Radiation) method. This new method was put to the test in 2006 with a second series of spatial radiological measurements. The main aim was now to verify the reproducibility of the method. In 2008, a third series of measurements was carried out and the following data was collected: • dose rate (using a pressurized ionisation chamber) • nuclide depended gamma photon flux (by means of a 3*3″ NaI detector ) • thermal neutron flux measurements (by means of LiI(Eu) detector) The results of the third serial of spatial radiological and thermal neutron flux measurements will be presented and compared to the 2004 and 2006 data on the operational dose for operators and for the public.

Abstract:
In the offshore industry, fibre reinforced sliding journal bearings are increasingly used due to their low-maintenance and self-lubricating characteristics. To be able to use the bearings in the rough offshore environment, under heavy loading, full scale tests are essential to assess the friction and wear rate development during use. For this purpose, two full scale wear tests were performed on composite sliding journal bearings of 300 mm in diameter. These tests were performed at the laboratory of TNO Structural Dynamics in Delft, The Netherlands, over a period of eight months. For this purpose, a test rig was designed in which a shaft runs through the journal bearing. The latter is loaded in the range 50 to 700 kN and the shaft is given triangle-like cyclic displacements. To be able to test under realistic conditions, the bearing is constantly submerged in flowing seawater. Forces, displacements and temperatures were constantly monitored to manage the system and determine the parameters. Besides a description of the test rig, a rationale of choices made, observations during testing and detailed cycle-by-cycle friction characteristics are presented, next to generalized trends for the wear and Coefficients of Friction (CoFs) under the various loading conditions.

Abstract:
The Royal Netherlands Navy (RNLN) wants to reduce the fossil fuel dependency of its fleet significantly, to decrease logistic efforts and environmental impact (Defensie, 2015). One of the methods to reduce fossil fuel dependency of ships is to reduce their energy requirement. The operational profile of fast naval combatants for the RNLN requires that the ships operate on the diesel engines for 90 percent of the time, often in part load where the turbocharger cannot supply the engine with the right amount of charge air. This results in a limited operating envelope for the diesel engine, and a decreased efficiency in part load. However, in part load, advanced charge air configurations can potentially resolve this. In this study a Mean Value First Principle (MVFP) diesel engine was used to investigate the effects of advanced charge air configurations on the efficiency and acceleration performance of diesel engines in hybrid configurations aboard fast naval combatants. It was concluded that the application of advanced charge air configurations can significantly improve the engine efficiency in part load. For example, in a diesel hybrid propulsion configuration with power take-off this can lead to an efficiency increase of almost 10 percent at 20 percent load in comparison with a single charged engine. Furthermore, hybrid turbocharging enables extending the operating envelope at low engine speed due to a better air excess ratio. With these concepts therefore, both improved efficiency and improved acceleration performance can be achieved.
