  3. 2. Integration of wind energy into the UK electricity grid and management within the distribution future energy scenarios

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Patrick O'Mahony; [2023]
    Keywords : Wind energy; renewable energy; network development plans; distribution future energy scenarios; electricity networks;

    Abstract : In order to achieve Net Zero emissions in the UK by 2050 and decarbonize the energy sector the integration of increased volumes of additional renewable wind energy is critical. Distribution network operators face challenges in increasing the capacity of this variable source of energy onto the electricity networks. READ MORE

  4. 3. Assessing the Benefits of Fossil-Free Gas Turbines in Distribution Networks : A Case Study in Västerås

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

    Author : Fredrik Hansell; Axel Vällfors; [2023]
    Keywords : Gas turbine; power system stability; balancing markets; hydrogen; eMethanol; Gasturbin; kraftsystemstabilitet; balansmarknader; vätgas; e-metanol;

    Abstract : As the share of weather-dependent renewable electricity production increases, the demand for power system flexibility grows. In the Swedish power system, gas turbines have historically been utilised for back-up power generation. READ MORE

  5. 4. Randomized heuristic scheduling of electrical distribution network maintenance in spatially clustered balanced zones

    University essay from KTH/Geoinformatik

    Author : Carolina Offenbacher; Ellen Thornström; [2022]
    Keywords : Capacitated Vehicle Routing Problem; Electrical distribution network; Heuristic algorithm; Scheduling; Handelsresandeproblemet; Eldistributionsnätverk; Heurustik algortim; Schemaläggning;

    Abstract : Reliable electricity distribution systems are crucial; hence, the maintenance of such systems is highly important, and in Sweden strictly regulated. Poorly planned maintenance scheduling leads unnecessary driving which contributes to increased emissions and costs. READ MORE

  6. 5. Geospatial Optimisation Methods for Mini-grid Distribution Networks : MSc Sustainable Energy Engineering (SEE)

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

    Author : Jessica La Costa; [2022]
    Keywords : Energy access; mini-grid; geospatial data; energy modelling; optimisation; Dijkstar; shortest path algorithm; OSeMOSYS; linear programming; distribution layout; low voltage network; python; Jupyter Notebook;

    Abstract : In 2019, 770 million people worldwide lived without electricity. As many as 490 million people could be electrified with 210,000 mini-grids by 2030. Obtaining information for decision-making is crucial to determine the viability of such a project. READ MORE
