1. 6. Peak Load Shaving Strategies of an Office Building : A Case Study at AirSon

   University essay from Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för företagande, innovation och hållbarhet

   Author : Azin Farzam; [2024]
   Keywords : Shifting Peak Load; Electricity Reduction; Measuring Peak Load; Electricity Efficiency; Building Management System; Electricity Consumption.;

   Abstract : Introduction: The global demand for renewable energy is expected to grow annually due to rising electricity consumption and economic and regulatory incentives. Efficient consumption and management of electricity consumption can support this trend (shifting from fossil resources to renewable resources) and benefit companies economically by reducing peak loads, reducing subscription costs, and protecting companies' power systems and networks.

3. 7. Predicting Electricity Consumption with ARIMA and Recurrent Neural Networks

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Statistiska institutionen

   Author : Klara Enerud; [2024]
   Keywords : time series forecasting; ARIMA; recurrent neural networks; LSTM; electricity forecasting; EED forecasting;

   Abstract : Due to the growing share of renewable energy in countries' power systems, the need for precise forecasting of electricity consumption will increase. This paper considers two different approaches to time series forecasting, autoregressive moving average (ARMA) models and recurrent neural networks (RNNs). READ MORE

4. 8. Deep reinforcement learning for automated building climate control

   University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för datavetenskap

   Author : Erik Snällfot; Martin Hörnberg; [2024]
   Keywords : Machine Learning; Reinforcement Learning; Deep Learning; Deep Reinforcement Learning; Building Control; Control System;

   Abstract : The building sector is the single largest contributor to greenhouse gas emissions, making it a natural focal point for reducing energy consumption. More efficient use of energy is also becoming increasingly important for property managers as global energy prices are skyrocketing. READ MORE

5. 9. Life Cycle Assessment : a comparison of fossil energy use and climate impact on small scale manufacturing and large scale conventional manufacturing of textile toys

   University essay from SLU/Dept. of Energy and Technology

   Author : Malin Henriksen; [2024]
   Keywords : textile toy; LCA; energy use; sustainable production; China; Sri Lanka; cotton production; fossil fuel use; GWP100;

   Abstract : This study conducts a Life Cycle Assessment to compare the environmental impacts, specifically climate impact and fossil fuel use, of textile toys produced in China and Sri Lanka. Through evaluating large-scale industrial production in China against small-scale, handcrafted production in Sri Lanka, it identifies the considerable environmental footprint of cotton production in both scenarios.

6. 10. Energy efficiency and fiscal incentives : A stochastic frontier analysis of Swedish manufacturing sectors 2008-2020

   University essay from Umeå universitet/Nationalekonomi

   Author : William Blombäck; [2024]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : This thesis is a case study of the Swedish manufacturing industry in which I measure how efficiently each sector uses energy (fuel and electricity) as input goods in their production processes, and how significant the impact of Sweden’s energy tax is in regard to energy efficiency. The purpose of this is to analyze energy security and preparedness for short-term demand shocks for electricity, as many ‘mega-investments’ of industrial nature are being planned in Sweden – which are predicted to require the installed capacity of Sweden’s electricity production to almost double by 2045.
