  1. 1. IMPLEMENTING SOLAR POWER SYSTEM AT ELIKIA SCHOOL : Electricity Generation for Education and Community Development in the DRC

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för tillämpad fysik och elektronik

    Author : Melvin Riche; [2023]
    Keywords : solcellsanläggningen; skolan; Kongo;

    Abstract : This report examines the feasibility and cost of installing an off-grid solar system for Elika School in the village of Lwengo, located in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Congo has one of the lowest electrification rates globally. Only 19% of the population has access to electricity, and almost none in rural areas. READ MORE

  3. 2. Price policy estimation for Demand Response of heat-pump-based loads

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Carlos Eduardo Gil Simancas; [2023]
    Keywords : Differential Evolution; Electricity Grids; Flexibility Services; Heat-pumps; Heterogeneous Loads; Implicit Demand Response; Optimization; Differentiell utveckling; elnät; flexibilitetstjänster; heterogena belastningar; implicit efterfrågesvar; optimering; värmepump;

    Abstract : The electricity grids have become a key player in the society. An increased usage of electricity is both a result from the more electrified society, but also as a main solver in reaching the climate goals by reducing emissions. READ MORE

  4. 3. Energy Usage in Railway Wayside Object Heating : Modeling of melting of Ice, Estimation of heating power requirement in Switch and Renewable energy feasibility for a Railway system

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