  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.

  2. 2. Solar PV and Lithium-ion BESS for Commercial Buildings in Sweden : Techno-economic evaluation of Peak Shaving, Energy Arbitrage and Frequency Regulation as management strategies.

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

    Author : Zacharias Sköld; [2023]
    Keywords : Li-BESS; Solar PV; Commercial buildings; Management; Frequency Regulation; Lithium-jon-batterier; Solceller; Kommersiella Byggnader; Styrstrategier; Frekvensreglering;

    Abstract : The residential and commercial sector is the largest consumer of electricity in Sweden and therefore highly affected by fluctuations in electricity price. On the other hand, there is a large potential to reduce both the electricity demand and emissions from electricity generation on a national level if measures are taken within this sector. READ MORE

  3. 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

  4. 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

  5. 5. Lifetime extension of offshore wind farms

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Robert Eriksson; [2022]
    Keywords : Lifetime extension; offshore wind power; O M; reliability; ReliaSoft;

    Abstract : Renewable energy sources are in strong demand as the need for clean energy is increasing, driven by the need to reach the environmental targets. Offshore wind power is becoming an attractive source as the technology matures and cost decreases. With time all wind farms age and when the time comes one needs to consider end of life alternatives.
