1. 6. Load following in a Swedish nuclear power plant

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

   Author : Jacob Bjurenfalk; [2020]
   Keywords : chemical engineering; nuclear power; load following; process engineering; electricity production; APROS; Simulations; swedish power gird; kemiteknik; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : The energy system in Sweden is currently under a great transformation, where the part of weather dependent energy sources, so called intermittent sources, like solar and wind power will get greater share in the total production of electricity while the production from stable energy sources like nuclear power is decreasing. For a long time, the nuclear power have been operating at baseload and the hydropower as flexible, though, due to the change in the current power system, nuclear power plants may need to transit to flexible operation and apply load following.

3. 7. Modeling least cost electricity system scenarios for Bangladesh using OSeMOSYS

   University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

   Author : John Mogren Olsson; [2020]
   Keywords : Bangladesh; Energy System Model; Scenarios; OSeMOSYS; Carbon Dioxide Emissions; Bangladesh; Energisystem model; Scenarion; OSeMOSYS; Koldioxidutsläpp;

   Abstract : In order to achieve sustainable development, countries like Bangladesh need to develop their electricity systems to guarantee their citizens access to modern energy services and achieve economic development, while not compromising the global climate. The purpose of this study is to examine what mix of technologies leads to the least costs for the electricity system under different scenario assumptions. READ MORE

4. 8. The prospect of Peer-to-Peer (P2P) Energy Trading in microgrids: two Swedish cases

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Internationella miljöinstitutet

   Author : Nayma Akther Jahan; [2019]
   Keywords : P2P energy trading; energy transition; microgrid; flexibility; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Abstract : Peer-to-Peer (P2P) energy trading in microgrids is an innovative solution to local energy problems where consumers produce and sell their energy to their neighbours. The idea of a microgrid-based local energy trading enables decentralised energy system and strengthens consumers' participation. READ MORE

5. 9. The Impact of Wind Power Production on Electricity Price Volatility : A Time-Series Analysis

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för ekonomi, teknik och samhälle

   Author : Alexander Wirdemo; [2017]
   Keywords : Wind power; price volatility; Nord pool;

   Abstract : This study investigates how increased wind power production (in MWh) in Sweden has affected electricity price volatility in the Nordic wholesale electricity exchange Nord Pool. The importance and growth of wind power have emerged in light of its low marginal costs of production and it being a renewable, zero-carbon electricity generation source. READ MORE

6. 10. Development of an electricity market model based on short-term power plant recruitment in liberalized market conditions

   University essay from KTH/Energiteknik

   Author : ERIK BJÖRKLUND; [2016]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Deregulated electricity markets enable power generation resources to be allocated efficiently in the short-term through competitive bidding on the power exchange, thus resulting in the lowest generation cost possible given the power plants currently available. With increasing shares of intermittent power sources and prospects of substantial changes in baseload power, as seen recently in Sweden, it is of interest to be able to predict electricity market outcomes given certain changes in the power system.
