1. Using a GIS to enable an economic, land use and energy output comparison between small wind powered turbines and large-scale wind farms: the case of Oslo, Norway.
University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapAbstract : Responding to an identified knowledge gap, the study aims to determine if smaller wind turbines located on top of existing urban buildings are more resource efficient (land utilization and economically) than large scale wind farms. To answer this question, using a GIS, the resource efficiency of the Roan wind farm in Northern Norway was compared to a theoretical modeled installation of small-scale wind turbines on top of buildings within a 2km radius study zone in central Oslo.

2. Calcium Oxide based Carbon Capture in District Energy Systems
University essay from KTH/KemiteknikAbstract : Global carbon emissions are higher than ever before and in the last decade of 21st century, focus has shifted on reducing these emissions in various ways possible. Carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS) has been identified as one of the important ways to reduce carbon emissions and meet climate targets. READ MORE

3. Building Information Modelling for Energy Analysis and Environmental Assessment : The comparison of LEED and Miljöbyggnad for two school buildings in Gävle, Sweden
University essay from Högskolan i Gävle/Energisystem och byggnadsteknikAbstract : The building sector is one of the largest energy consumers and there are global efforts toward sustainable and energy-efficient new buildings and existing buildings retrofit. The application of Building Information Modelling (BIM) in environmental assessment was practiced and studied following the increasing number of projects adopting the BIM workflows and pursuing green building certifications.

4. MODELING ENERGY LOSSES AND GAINS IN LOW TEMPERATURE BI-DIRECTIONAL HEATING AND COOLING GRIDS A CASE STUDY OF E.ON’S ECTOGRID
University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematisk statistikAbstract : Energy for heating and cooling purposes is essential for many industrial processes, as well as something we all rely on to provide us with warm water and a pleasant indoor climate. As much as half of all energy consumed in the EU is used for heating and cooling [1]. READ MORE

5. Ab inito calculation of the formation energy of the sigma phases at 1000 Kelvin : With a five sublattice model for the ternary Iron-Chromium-Nickel system
University essay from KTH/MaterialvetenskapAbstract : This project investigates the σ-phase formation energy at 1000 Kelvin using Exact Muffin TIn Orbital (EMTO) method and considers the disordered local moment approach to handle the paramagnetism in a self-consistent manner. The sigma phase is detrimental and causes embrittlement when it occurs primarily in stainless steel and superalloys with Iron (Fe) and Chromium (Cr), which is why it is necessary to understand it better and therefore avoid it.
