1. 6. SHADING ANALYSIS OF AGRIVOLTAIC SYSTEMS : The shading’s effect on lettuce and potato from elevated agrivoltaic system in Sweden

   University essay from Mälardalens högskola/Framtidens energi

   Author : Komail Farid; Ahmad Guleed; [2023]
   Keywords : photosynthetically active radiation; agrivoltaic system; elevated system; crop yield; agriculture; shade tolerance crop; shading factor; PVsyst;

   Abstract : The world is progressing towards a more sustainable society, where renewable energy sources, including solar energy, play a crucial role. This study aims to address the conflict between agriculture and energy production by exploring the installation of solar panels on farmland. READ MORE

3. 7. INDUCTIVE RAILWAY SWITCH POINT HEATING : Improved control algorithm and phase compensation analysis for an inductive turnout heating system, and comparison with a resistive heating system

   University essay from Mälardalens universitet/Akademin för ekonomi, samhälle och teknik

   Author : Erik Nordlund; [2023]
   Keywords : Inductive switch point heating; Turnout heating; railway turnout heating; Inductive heating;

   Abstract : Railway turnout heating is essential during the winter because snow and ice can hinder the movement of the switch. In Sweden, heating has traditionally been done using resistive heating wires mounted to the stock rail, but the technology is outdated and generally exhibits low efficiency and performance.

5. 9. Test rig for evaluation of protective coating against molten aluminum

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

   Author : Sashank Ghandikota; [2023]
   Keywords : TES; PCM; protective coating; thermal energy storage; TES; PCM; skyddande beläggning; lagring av värmeenergi;

   Abstract : Today, many methods test the lifetime of coatings, but none focus on testing protective coatingsin a non-oxidizing environment. Hence, this master thesis developed a method to test the life-time of a protective coating against molten aluminum. READ MORE

6. 10. Unlocking the Potential of Solar-Hydro Hybrid Solutions: Feasibility and Economic Analysis

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Industriell elektroteknik och automation

   Author : Måns Rosberg; [2023]
   Keywords : Hydropower; Solarpower; Hybrid power production; Solar-hydro hybrid power; Reservoir storage; Energy storage; Pumped hydro power; Floating PV; PV; Photovoltaics; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Hybrid solutions that combine multiple renewable energy sources, such as solar power and hydro power, are gaining popularity as a means of meeting the growing energy demands while minimising environmental impacts, but also as an opportunity of connecting solar power plants to the grid in areas where this might not be possible unless large investments are made. This master thesis aims to evaluate the feasibility and economic viability of integrating solar panels with an existing grid connection point at a hydro power plant, along with the introduction of an energy storage solution using a hydro power plant reservoir.
