  1. 1. Navigating Sustainability : A case study exploring alternative energy sources for maritime shipping

    University essay from KTH/Industriell ekonomi och organisation (Inst.)

    Author : Simon Nordenskiöld; [2024]
    Keywords : Maritime shipping; Alternative energy sources; Alternative fuels; Hydrogen-based fuels; Sustainable shipping; Electrofuels; Electro-methanol; Liquid Hydrogen; Electro-ammonia; Sails; Wind; Technological Innovation System; Sjöfart; Alternativa energikällor; Alternativa bränslen; Vätebaseradebränslen; Hållbar sjöfart; Elektrobränslen; Elektrometanol; Flytande väte; Elektroammoniak; Segel; Vind; Technological Innovation Systems;

    Abstract : This master thesis studies alternative energy sources for maritime shipping in Sweden. With current climate goals, and a need for change, the maritime sector currently undergoes intense transitions. For shipping companies to lower their carbon footprint, the need to replace non decarbonised fuels is hence critical. READ MORE

  3. 2. Pathway for Sustainable Aviation : Analysis of Science-Based Targets for Aviation

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Sebastian Lindfors; [2023]
    Keywords : Aviation; Airline; Science-Based Targets initiative; Climate change; Sustainable transformation; Alternative fuels; Sustainable aviation fuels SAF ; Hydrogen; Electric aviation; Scenario analysis; Flygindustrin; Flygbolag; Science-Based Targets-initiativet; Klimatförändring; Hållbar transformation; Alternativa bränslen; Hållbart flygbränsle; Väte; Elektrisk flygning; Scenarioanalys 437 07-21;

    Abstract : In order for the aviation industry to meet the targets of the Paris agreement and reach net-zero by 2050, significant amounts of greenhouse-gas emissions are to be reduced. However, as the industry is essentially dependent on conventional jet fuel, it becomes necessary for alternative technologies to develop and phase out fossil-based fuels. READ MORE

  4. 3. Hydrogen fuel in the domestic maritime transport sector of Fiji : A Feasibility Study

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Tilda Eklund; Anna Fredén; [2023]
    Keywords : Fiji; Fuel Cell; Maritime Hydrogen; Maritime Transport; Fiji; Bränslecell; Maritim Vätgas; Maritim Transport;

    Abstract : The maritime transport sector accounts for around 2.9% of the world’s anthropogenic emissions, a percentage that is growing yearly. Alternative fuels have come to be considered the necessary solution of the future, not least in island nations such as Fiji that are socially and economically dependent on sustainable maritime transport.

  6. 5. Development of an Accelerated Test Method for Compressed Natural Gas Fuel System Robustness against Contamination

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

    Author : Elias Aretorn; [2023]
    Keywords : CNG; Natural Gas; Heavy-Duty Vehicles; Fuel System; Contamination; Cleanliness; Accelerated Testing; Experimental Setup; Pressure Regulator;

    Abstract : A key factor for driving the shift towards sustainable transportation systems is alternative fuels, where compressed natural gas (CNG) is a beneficial alternative to the conventional fossil fuels with respect to greenhouse gas emissions. A fuel system is needed for heavy-duty natural gas vehicles, in order to transport the highly pressurized gas from the fuel tanks to the internal combustion engine. READ MORE
