  2. 12. 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

  4. 14. Flexible Sector Coupling (FSC) of Electrical and Thermal Sectors via Thermal Energy Storage (TES) : A Case Study on Oskarshamn Energi

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

    Author : Raúl Calvo García; Jose María Marín Arcos; [2023]
    Keywords : Flexible sector coupling FSC ; district heating DH ; thermal energy storage TES ; heat pump HP ; capacity optimization; dispatch optimization; open-access tools; Flexibel sektorkoppling; fjärrvärme; termisk energilagring; värmepump; kapacitetsoptimering; leveransoptimering; verktyg med öppen tillgång;

    Abstract : The integration of distributed energy sources and systems is of high relevance for the transition towards a more sustainable energy system. Taking into consideration the  amount of emissions produced by the heating sector, which account for at least half of the energy demand in buildings, district heating systems have the potential to play a key role in the transition, by enabling the integration of various energy sources and provide flexible energy services to the grid.

  5. 15. Climate Impact of Wind Turbine Production : Emissions from Material and Energy Usage for Onshore and Offshore Wind Turbines

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

    Author : Joel Arnelo; Maria Kolte; [2023]
    Keywords : Wind turbine production; Wind turbine components; Onshore and Offshore wind power; Wind power climate impact; Produktion av vindkraftverk; Vindkraftverk komponenter; Landbaserad och havsbaserad vindkraft; Klimatpåverkan vindkraft;

    Abstract : Wind power is a renewable energy source that is making great strides in the global energy sector. While wind power is a renewable energy source, it is not entirely free from carbon emissions. This is because the production of wind turbines is dependent on the use of energy, and as a result can emit large amounts of carbon dioxide. READ MORE
