  1. 1. Hosting Capacity Methods Considering Complementarity between Solar and Wind Power : A Case Study on a Swedish Regional Grid

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Energisystem

    Author : Emma Andersson; Maja Abrahamsson Bolstad; [2023]
    Keywords : hosting capacity; hosting capacity methods; renewable power generation; power grid; power system analysis; complementarity; solar power; wind power; deterministic method; time series method;

    Abstract : The demand for electrical power is growing due to factors such as population growth, urbanisation, and the transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy sources. To be able to keep up with the changes in electricity demand, the Swedish power grid must connect more renewable power generation, but also  increase its transmission capacity. READ MORE

  2. 2. 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. 3. Metals for energy storage : For hydrogen and power generation

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Konstruktionsmaterial

    Author : Oscar Torsteinsrud; Mattias Reijm; [2023]
    Keywords : Metals; Energy Storage; Round Trip Efficiency; Aluminum; Boron; Magnesium; Silicon; Zinc;

    Abstract : With an increase in energy demand and a transition from conventional fossil-driven energy generation, the world is facing a major challenge. This transition implies more intermittent energy sources whose reliance varies widely with time. To deal with this challenge, energy storage is one part of the solution. READ MORE

  4. 4. Transmission expansion planning considering Probabilistic Risk Assessment : Implemented at Swedish National Grid

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Jakob Björns; [2023]
    Keywords : Probabilistic risk assessment; PSS E; Transmission expansion planning; National grid; Probabilistisk riskbedömning; PSS E; Transmissionsnätsutveckling; Stamnät;

    Abstract : Svenska kraftnät (Swedish National Grid) is the transmission system operator in Sweden and is responsible for maintaining and developing the Swedish transmission grid. One of the tasks included in this responsibility is transmission expansion planning, which means analyzing and planning the capacity in the future transmission grid for the requested load and generation.
