  1. 1. Exploring potential E-fuel production pathways for maritime and aviation sectors in France : a techno-economic and environmental assessment

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

    Author : Mathieu Minaud; [2024]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The aviation and maritime industries pose significant challenges for decarbonization, having increased activity in the past decade. One promising solution to limit emissions in these sectors is Electrofuels (E-fuel), derived from water electrolysis hydrogen and captured CO2 or nitrogen. READ MORE

  2. 2. Unlocking the Potential of Solar-Hydro Hybrid Solutions: Feasibility and Economic Analysis

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Industriell elektroteknik och automation

    Author : Måns Rosberg; [2023]
    Keywords : Hydropower; Solarpower; Hybrid power production; Solar-hydro hybrid power; Reservoir storage; Energy storage; Pumped hydro power; Floating PV; PV; Photovoltaics; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Hybrid solutions that combine multiple renewable energy sources, such as solar power and hydro power, are gaining popularity as a means of meeting the growing energy demands while minimising environmental impacts, but also as an opportunity of connecting solar power plants to the grid in areas where this might not be possible unless large investments are made. This master thesis aims to evaluate the feasibility and economic viability of integrating solar panels with an existing grid connection point at a hydro power plant, along with the introduction of an energy storage solution using a hydro power plant reservoir.

  3. 3. Metals for energy storage : For hydrogen and power generation

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Konstruktionsmaterial

    Author : Oscar Torsteinsrud; Mattias Reijm; [2023]
    Keywords : Metals; Energy Storage; Round Trip Efficiency; Aluminum; Boron; Magnesium; Silicon; Zinc;

    Abstract : With an increase in energy demand and a transition from conventional fossil-driven energy generation, the world is facing a major challenge. This transition implies more intermittent energy sources whose reliance varies widely with time. To deal with this challenge, energy storage is one part of the solution. READ MORE

  4. 4. Life Cycle Assessment of Absolicon solar thermal collector field for district heating in Härnösand

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Ohm Ariyakhajorn; [2023]
    Keywords : Life Cycle Assessment; Solar Thermal Energy; District Heating System; Livscykelanalys; Solvärme; Fjärrvärmesystem;

    Abstract : Global energy consumption has been increasing continuously every year. Many energy sources are utilized. Conventional fossil fuels are not sustainable, and their environmental impacts are more apparent than ever before. For heating purposes, most of the heat still comes from combustion of both non-renewable and renewable energy sources. READ MORE

  5. 5. Frequency Stabilization in low Inertia Systems With Battery Power Injections

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Leif Lundin; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The challenges for the power system of the future becomes increasingly larger when large amountsof renewable energy sources are integrated, and when conventional forms of power such asnuclear power are phased out. This results in a greater difficulty in quickly deploying FrequencyContainment Reserves in the event of of power balance disturbance, to stabilize frequency andvoltage. READ MORE
