3. 2. Analysis of Electricity Usage Time Series with K-means Clustering

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Elektricitetslära

   Author : Göran Iliev; [2022]
   Keywords : electricty usage; office; residential; time series; clustering;

   Abstract : As the amount of collected and analysed data for electricity usage from buildings is increasing it becomes an important component in energy efficiency efforts. A huge problem when developing algorithms fordetection of anomalous electricity usage series is the lack of data setswith annotated normal usage series for training and evaluation purposes.

4. 3. Structural strengthening and sustainability improvements of existing buildings – A case study

   University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för byggteknik (BY)

   Author : Pardis Niknafs; [2022]
   Keywords : Building retrofit; structural strengthening; energy efficiency; environmental impact; integrated and sustainable intervention; cross-laminated timber; life cycle assessment;

   Abstract : In Sweden, a large share of residential buildings was built more than 50 years ago. Consequently, old materials, poor maintenance, and corrosion can affect the structural performance of these buildings. Additionally, these buildings do not meet the latest energy efficiency and Eurocode regulations. READ MORE

5. 4. Energy Renovation: A case study of a multi-family house built during the Million program in Djursholm

   University essay from KTH/Energiteknik

   Author : Adiltogtokh Bold; [2022]
   Keywords : Energy Renovation; Refurbishment; Energy Efficiency Measure; Direct-electric Heating; Multi-family House; Energirenovering; Renovering; Energieffektiviseringsåtgärd; Direktverkande El; Flerfamiljhus;

   Abstract : Large share of Swedish building stock were built during 1940-1980 when people were not fully aware of the energy efficiency concept. Majority of the buildings that made energy declaration are in energy class E-G, which are considered as high energy consumption buildings with low energy performance, and only few buildings meet the Swedish requirements for near zero energy buildings which are in energy class A-C.

6. 5. Development of a Simulation Model for Combined PVT and Ground Source Heat Pump Systems : A TRNSYS Model Created for Commercial Use

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

   Author : HANNA OLAUSSON; EMMA WERNIUS; [2021]
   Keywords : Electrify everything; Solar assisted heat pump; Solar Energy; TRNSYS; Elektrifiera allt; solassisterad värmepump; Solenergi; TRNSYS;

   Abstract : The Swedish government has set a target of a 100% renewable electricity system by 2040. To reach this goal, many actions have to be undertaken. Electrification of buildings is one action to be undertaken as the residential sector accounts for a large share of greenhouse gas emissions, where the most energy efficient method is to use heat pumps.
