1. Unlocking the Potential of Solar-Hydro Hybrid Solutions: Feasibility and Economic Analysis
University essay from Lunds universitet/Industriell elektroteknik och automationAbstract : 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. A reverse data-driven energy estimation approach for evaluating renewable energy systems implementation in New York City
University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för arkitektur och byggd miljö; Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Energi och byggnadsdesignAbstract : Urban areas are responsible for a significant part of greenhouse gas emissions. Megacities, especially, have cumulative impacts due to different anthropogenic heat sources and urban heat island phenomena. It is therefore vital to replace fossil fuel burning heating sources with renewable sources in the current building stock. READ MORE

4. Modeling the optimal energy mix in 2030 : Impact of the integration of renewable energy sources
University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektro- och systemteknik (EES)Abstract : The European Council has recently set objectives in the matter of energy and climate policies and thus the interest in renewable energies is more than ever at stake. However, the introduction of renewable energies in an energy mix is also accelerated and altered by political targets. READ MORE

5. Impact of vehicle exhaust emitted by the combustion of biofuels on human health
University essay from Sektionen för ekonomi och teknik (SET)Abstract : Introduction: Significant changes in the global ecosystem, together with a potential shortfall in oil resources, have stimulated intense interest in the development of other sources of energy, and most particularly biofuels since these are basically considered to be less harmful to human health than petroleum-based fuels. However, information about the impact of biofuel-derived vehicle emissions on human health is limited and incomplete. READ MORE
