1. 1. 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.

3. 2. Batteries charging into the future? Techno-economical analysis of BESS participation on the Swedish frequency regulation market using a mixed method approach

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Miljö- och energisystem

   Author : Theodor Rosengren; [2023]
   Keywords : Battery Energy Storage Systems; Frequency Regulation; FCR-D; FFR; economic feasibility; Sweden; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : As the penetration of variable renewable energy is increasing, the demand for flexibility in the electrical grid is on the rise. One way in which flexibility is needed is to provide frequency regulation. If electricity consumption and production momentarily are unbalanced there needs to. READ MORE

4. 3. Valuation in the energy storage sector - an investor perspective

   University essay from Umeå universitet/Företagsekonomi

   Author : Oliver Vasanoja; Alessandro Volpe; [2023]
   Keywords : Energy storage; project finance; sustainable finance; investor rationality; financial valuation; levelized cost of storage; net present value; internal rate of return; payback period; technological maturity;

   Abstract : This study will examine a strategy for evaluating energy storage projects by integrating valuation metrics from finance and the energy sector. Uncertainty is one of the key barriers to investment in the energy sector (Shimbar & Ebrahimi, 2017, p. READ MORE

5. 4. Techno-Economic Assessment of High-Temperature H2O/CO2 : Co-Electrolysis in Solid Oxide Electrolysers for Syngas Production

   University essay from KTH/Kemiteknik

   Author : Shivani Ramprasad Jambur; [2022]
   Keywords : Co-electrolysis; Power-to-X; Process modeling; Green Syngas; Solid-Oxide Electrolyser;

   Abstract : High-temperature Co-electrolysis of H2O and CO2 in a solid-oxide electrolyser (Co-SOE) for syngas production is a high-efficiency renewable electricity conversion and storage method part of the Power-to-X technologies. Syngas, a mixture of H2, CO and CO2, is a critical building block to make several chemical and synthesis fuels. READ MORE

6. 5. Optimisation through automation : Implications and opportunities of bin picking in manufacturing

   University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Institutionen för industriell ekonomi

   Author : Enzo Seiholm; Jesper Sundius; [2022]
   Keywords : Industry 4.0; Bin picking; Discrete event simulation; KPI; Utility function;

   Abstract : Background Manufacturers have to adopt modern technologies to compete at the top of their field. However, adopting new technologies can be expensive and difficult to validate prior to implementation. One technology that has difficulties receiving a wider application is bin picking. READ MORE
