  1. 1. Alternative Energy Storage Solutions and Future Scenarios of the Austerland Energy System

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

    Author : Jennie Lindblom; [2022]
    Keywords : Gotland; Östergarnslandet; Polygeneration system; Homer Pro; Solar PV; Wind power; Energy storage; Battery; Hydrogen; Flywheel; Redox Flow battery; Pumped Hydro; Sustainable development.; Gotland; Östergarnslandet; Poly-genererings system; Homer Pro; Solceller; Vindkraft; Energilagring; Batterier; Vätgas; Svänghjul; Redox Flödesbatteri; Pumpkraftverket; Hållbar utveckling.;

    Abstract : The project Austerland Energi at the eastern tip of the island of Gotland called Östergarnslandet was started as a response to the larger project Omställning Gotland funded by the Swedish government as an effort for a pilot project to convert to renewable energy to reach zero CO2-emissions for the country in 2045. The current plan for the Austerland energy system is a solar PV and wind production base with energy storage in the form of batteries and hydrogen which also can be used as vehicle fuel. READ MORE

  3. 2. A mechanical analysis of a flywheel as an energy storage system

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för materialvetenskap

    Author : Filip Brunmark; Louie Sterin; Yafet Suleman; Groucho Zimmermann; [2021]
    Keywords : Energy storage; sustainable energy; mechanics; Energilagring; hållbar energi; mekanik;

    Abstract : This report is a theoretical analysis of high inertia flywheels. Four different flywheel shapes are studied and essential parameters for designing flywheels with optimal energy storage capabilities are discussed. This was done by compiling theoretical findings and presenting these in a way relevant for energy storage applications. READ MORE

  4. 3. Analysis Of A Wave Power System With Passive And Active Rectification

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för elektroteknik

    Author : Ferdus Wahid; [2020]
    Keywords : WEC; Optimal damping coefficient; Power smoothing; Passive rectifier; Active rectifier; Buck converter; Bi-directional DC-DC converter; Flywheel; Battery; Bi-directional voltage source converter; Voltage source inverter;

    Abstract : Wave energy converter (WEC) harnesses energy from the ocean to produce electrical power. The electrical power produced by the WEC is fluctuating and is not maximized as well, due to the varying ocean conditions. As a consequence, without any intermediate power conversion stage, the output power from the WEC can not be fed into the grid. READ MORE

  5. 4. Techno-economic analysis of integrating renewable electricity and electricity storage in Åland by 2030 : Overview of the current energy situation and definition of four possible environmentally friendly pathways

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

    Author : Dario Nikzad; [2019]
    Keywords : Islanded energy system; renewable energy; electricity storage; energy system modelling;

    Abstract : The study focuses on the possible positive impacts derived from implementing innovative energy solutions to the Åland energy system by 2030. Four scenarios are formulated in order to determine feasible solutions in economic and technological terms. READ MORE

  6. 5. Damping Profile Research for Corpower Ocean's Wave Energy Converter

    University essay from KTH/Optimeringslära och systemteori

    Author : Tianzhi Zhou; [2016]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : With increasing energy demanding and greenhouse gases from fossil fuel, the need to develop new ways to convert energy in sustainable methods is becoming more and more urgent. Corpower Ocean AB designed a point absorber type wave energy converter to harvest energy from surface wave. READ MORE
