1. The Role of Technology Shifts in Urban Decarbonization Modelling : Scenario creation and implementation
University essay from KTH/EnergisystemAbstract : This work includes modelling of decarbonization scenarios at the scale of an urban area, providing policy insights and a methodology focusing on introducing district heating and maintaining the existing gas distribution network in a case study. With a focus on reducing gas consumption in the residential and tertiary sectors, the research integrates scenario developments giving a methodology to develop district heating, requiring a careful balance in selecting the optimal scale for city-wide analysis.

2. Deep reinforcement learning for automated building climate control
University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för datavetenskapAbstract : The building sector is the single largest contributor to greenhouse gas emissions, making it a natural focal point for reducing energy consumption. More efficient use of energy is also becoming increasingly important for property managers as global energy prices are skyrocketing. READ MORE

3. Improvement of anautomatic networkdrawing algorithm in thecontext of utility networks
University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)Abstract : The European Union’s ambitious climate targets necessitate substantial reductions in greenhouse gas emissions, particularly within the heating and cooling sector, which accounts for a significant portion of energy consumption. District Heating and Cooling (DHC) systems emerge as a key solution for decarbonizing this sector by enabling high efficiency heat production and the integration of renewable and carbon-neutral energy sources.

4. Long-term Forecasting Heat Use in Sweden's Residential Sector using Genetic Algorithms and Neural Network
University essay from Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för företagande, innovation och hållbarhetAbstract : In this study, the parameters of population, gross domestic product (GDP), heat price, U-value, and temperature have been used to predict heat consumption for Sweden till 2050. It should be noted that the heat consumption has been considered for multi-family houses. Most multi-family houses (MFH) get their primary heat from district heating (DH). READ MORE

5. Techno-economic analysis and simulation of low temperature district heating networks
University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Energi och byggnadsdesign; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för arkitektur och byggd miljöAbstract : The continuous increase in global energy consumption has led to a greater focus on the energy required for heating buildings. This thesis presents a techno-economic model for analysing low-temperature district heating networks coupled with a geothermal heat source. READ MORE
