  1. 1. Optimization of an energy system in rural Thailand

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

    Author : Axel Lund; Mattias Malmberg; [2023]
    Keywords : Rural energy; Thailand; Microgrid; Biomass; Solar PV; Sustainable development goals; Minor field study; stand-alone; HOMER pro; Landsbyggdens energi; Thailand; Microgrid; Biomassa; Solceller; Hållbara utvecklingsmål; Minor field study; fristående energi system; HOMER pro;

    Abstract : By 2020, Thailand ensured 100% electricity access to its 72 million inhabitants. This was partly done by promoting off-grid energy systems in rural areas instead of using costly grid extensions. READ MORE

  2. 2. Battery storage implementation in Sweden and sizing software development

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

    Author : Santiago Moreano Rojas; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Due to the rampant growth of the penetration of renewables into the electrical grids across the world, more challenges appear in the way to assure the optimal operation of the energy system. More particularly, in the case of Sweden, the nuclear power decommissioning tendency and the 100% renewable energy target by 2040, set two strong additional motivations for the rise of issues regarding variability, uncertainty, stability, balancing and quality in the grid.

  3. 3. Evaluation of the challenges and opportunities of Vehicle-to-Grid technology and the potential revenue streams for BEV fleet owners and aggregators

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

    Author : Lukas Strandberg; Madeleine Sandberg; [2023]
    Keywords : Vehicle-to-Grid; Grid flexibility; Capacity markets; Barriers; Fordon-till-nätteknologi; Elnätsflexibilitet; Kapacitetsmarknader; Barriärer;

    Abstract : The increasing amount of renewable energy being connected to the power grid, and the intermittent nature of these resources, calls for increased grid flexibility to ensure operational safety and stability. An effective solution to address this need could be through wider implementation of various energy storage technologies. READ MORE

  4. 4. Third-party risks in industrial control systems: : A case study in the wind power sector

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

    Author : Abdullahi Ahmed; [2023]
    Keywords : Supply chain security; Wind power; Risk management; Third-party risk management; SCADA-system; Säkerhetshantering för försörjningskedjan; Vindkraft; Riskhantering; Tredjeparts riskhantering; SCADA-system;

    Abstract : This report investigates third-party risk for SCADA systems, using Swedish wind power as an empirical case study. Supervisory, Control, and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems are used in the wind power industry to monitor and control the operational process. The paper also proposed potential strategies for reducing third-party risks and exposures. READ MORE

  5. 5. Microgrid in George Washington, Cuba

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

    Author : Mimmi Fröjdh; Sofia Sjöberg; [2023]
    Keywords : Cuba; microgrid; energy systems modelling; renewable energy; optimization; Kuba; microgrid; energisystemmodellering; förnybar energi; optimering;

    Abstract : Cuba has vast natural resources for domestic renewable energy generation, but their energy mix is heavily dominated by fossil fuels. This contributes to a high dependence on expensive oil imports and has led to significant generation shortfalls, which in turn has resulted in extensive power outages and serious fuel crises.
