  1. 1. CUSTOMISING EU ENERGY EFFICIENCY POLICY - The national strategy behind implementing Article 7 of the EU Energy Efficiency Directive 2012: a case study of Sweden

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Statsvetenskapliga institutionen

    Author : Isabell Börjesson; [2022-06-22]
    Keywords : EU; Policy implementation; Customisation; Rational choice institutionalism; Sociological institutionalism; Sweden; Energy Efficiency Directive; 2012 27 EU;

    Abstract : This Master Thesis examines the topic of Member States (MS) implementation of EU policy, with the two-folded aim of studying how and why MS customise EU policy in the manner that is proceeded with. The strategy behind MS implementation of EU policy is hence at centre stage and is analysed through the development of an innovative theoretical framework. READ MORE

  2. 2. Product Development of Electronic Devices for Improved Environmental Performance : Finding improvement opportunities using ecodesign tools and success factors

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Industriell miljöteknik

    Author : Angelica Reyes; Alice Landin; [2022]
    Keywords : Ecodesign; Ecodesign implementation; Building Management Systems; Electronics; Environmental Sustainability; QFDE; LCA;

    Abstract : The energy consumption of the use phase of buildings accounts for almost 30 per-cent of the global energy consumption and is expected to increase in the coming years (Santamouris and Vasilakopoulou, 2021). Furthermore, increasing demand for energy-efficient buildings can be expected due to the introduction of legislative frameworks, such as the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive and the Energy Efficiency Directive (European Commission, 2022b).

  3. 3. Modeling of Wet Scrubber with Heat Recovery in Biomass Combustion Plants

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för byggd miljö och energiteknik (BET)

    Author : Wilhelm Johansson; [2020]
    Keywords : Centrifugal Scrubber; Heat Recovery; Thermal Efficiency; Biomass Combustion; MCP-Directive; Simulation; Modelling;

    Abstract : During combustion of biomass, particulate matter is emitted, which has severe health impacts on humans. The company ITK Envifront has developed a scrubber technology that cleans the flue gas while also recovering the flue gas energy, increasing the efficiency of the combustion plant. READ MORE

  4. 4. Low-dispersive Leaky-wave Antennas: A Viable Approach for Fifth Generation (5G) mmWave Base Station Antennas

    University essay from KTH/Elektroteknisk teori och konstruktion

    Author : Oskar Dahlberg; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In this work, a method to achieve reduced beam-squint in fully metallic leaky-wave antennas is proposed and its applicability for high frequency, high gain, base station antennas in future communication networks is indicated. The antenna is built in gap waveguide technology, where the fundamental mode is allowed to leak by removal of one of the waveguide walls. READ MORE

  5. 5. Investigation of the energy saving potential for an office building complex : A study on the viability of an on-site combined heat- and power supply system

    University essay from Mälardalens högskola/Akademin för ekonomi, samhälle och teknik

    Author : Douglas Eriksson; [2018]
    Keywords : geothermal energy system; PV-system; battery; district heating; TRNSYS;

    Abstract : The building stock in the European Union accounts for over 40% of final energy use, where the usage of non-residential buildings may be up to 40% higher than the residential sector. Improving building energy efficiency across all categories of buildings is one key goal of the European energy policies, made prominent by the Climate and Energy package, Energy Performance of Building Directive (EPBD) and Energy Efficiency Directive (EED).
