  1. 1. Carbon Capture from Biomass Boiler Flue Gas Emissions using Microalgae : A Case Study

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

    Author : Graham Kirn; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Capture and storage of carbon dioxide (CO2) is expected to play an important role in climate change mitigation efforts intended to limit global warming to 1.5 °C. Bioenergy with carbon capture and storage (BECCS), in which carbon is captured during energy generation from sustainably sourced biomass fuels, is of particular interest in Sweden. READ MORE

    Abstract : The human influence of global climate is an issue currently assessed in various mitigation strategies. Stockholm County has committed to becoming carbon neutral by 2040 and negative by 2045 according to the Paris agreement. READ MORE

  4. 3. Decentralizing electricity generation in Cuba : Implementation of a microgrid in the sugar mil lCarlos Baliño

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

    Author : Aylin Berber; Cornelia Eriksson; [2023]
    Keywords : Microgrid; renewable energy; bagasse; self-sufficiency; Microgrid; förnybar energi; bagass; självförsörjande;

    Abstract : Cuba has a long history of different dependencies and is a country facing many energy challenges, and therefore seeks to diversify its energy sources and reduce its reliance on fossil fuels. The purpose of this degree project is therefore to conceptualize a microgrid based on renewable energy sources for local energy sustainability at the lowest cost possible. READ MORE

  5. 4. Sunshine Tomorrow : Assessing the emission mitigation effects of photovoltaic systems in Sweden

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Nationalekonomiska institutionen

    Author : Lucas Åkerman; [2023]
    Keywords : emission mitigation; energy market; environmental policy; sweden;

    Abstract : Global warming is an impending crisis that poses severe ecological and economic consequences if left unaddressed. The primary cause of this crisis is the emission of carbon dioxide (CO2), making it crucial to identify and implement effective emission-mitigating measures. READ MORE

  6. 5. Permanently stored, permanently trapped? A study on the risk of carbon lock-in through the German-Norwegian partnership in CCS and hydrogen

    University essay from Lunds universitet/LUCSUS

    Author : Lena Faber; [2023]
    Keywords : CCS; carbon lock-in; blue hydrogen; climate change mitigation; sustainability science; Social Sciences;

    Abstract : As the climate crisis becomes more severe, carbon capture and storage (CCS) is increasingly seen as a viable option to help mitigate climate change. However, one risk with regard to CCS is that it locks us into the use of carbon-based energy sources and industry, creating a carbon lock-in. READ MORE
