  1. 1. Swedish Offshore Wind : Modelling development pathways to commercial viability

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

    Author : Siddharth Iyer; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Offshore wind will play an important role in Sweden’s fossil-free energy future. Although Sweden has many offshore wind farms in the planning and approval stages, few projects have been built, and little public research on which offshore wind areas and individual farms are most economically viable.

  5. 4. Modelling of the Flexibility of the Swedish Power System

    University essay from KTH/Elektriska energisystem

    Author : Ying Li; [2014]
    Keywords : flexibility; short-term planning; hydropower; thermal power;

    Abstract : This master thesis studies the flexibility of Swedish power system. Because of the increase of fuel price and the environmental issues, renewable energy plays an increasingly important role. Sweden parliament has a planning frame of 30 TWh wind power energy per year in 2020. Wind power generation is largely dependent of wind speed. READ MORE

  6. 5. Modelling Demand Uncertainties in Generation-Transmission Expansion planning : A case study of the Nigerian Power System

    University essay from KTH/Elektriska energisystem

    Author : OMOBOBOLA FALEYE; [2012]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The Nigerian power system is one plagued with incessant load shedding due to inadequate generation and transmission capacities. Currently, less than 40% of the population is connected to the national grid and less than 50% of the available installed capacity is actively used in meeting demand. A new wave of energy reforms is on-going in the nation. READ MORE
