1. 1. FEASIBILITY ANALYSIS FOR THE DECARBONISATION OF A DECENTRALISED GRID SYSTEM: A CASE STUDY FOR THE ISLAND OF FUERTEVENTURA, SPAIN

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

   Author : Pablo Melian Batista; [2022]
   Keywords : Hybrid renewable energy systems; HOMER Software; Wind energy; PV; Battery storage; Distributed generation; Decarbonisation;

   Abstract : Decarbonisation of different energy sectors of society is becoming a pressing issue globally withnumerous legislations and objectives being set to decarbonise electrical grids worldwide. Somehave already been met; however, islanded grids still heavily rely on fossil fuels to meet their electrical demand due to the weakness of their grid and limited available space forcing them to use space-efficient technologies such as diesel generators.

3. 2. Techno-economic study for a 50 MW PV plant in Nigeria

   University essay from Högskolan Dalarna/Energiteknik

   Author : Jacob Kelly; [2021]
   Keywords : Photovoltaics; monofacial; bifacial; fixed mounting; single-axis tracking; inverter loading ratio; utility PV plant; solar farm; LCOE optimisation; Nigeria;

   Abstract : As part of Nigeria’s drive to increase electricity production capacity and shift to renewable sources, a new 50 MW photovoltaic (PV) plant is proposed for a town in north-west Nigeria. Rather than using conventional monofacial modules and fixed mounting, it is of interest to consider a selection of new technologies which are attracting growing attention in the global utility PV market.

   University essay from KTH/Energiteknik

   Author : T.L.B. Attanayaka; [2018]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : A long term generation expansion model for the electricity sector of Sri Lanka was developed in this thesis. The model provides the least cost development pathways to cater the future electricity demand within the user defined constraints that need to be adhered. READ MORE

5. 4. On the Market Potential of Modular Stirling CSP Systems With Storage in the MENA

   University essay from KTH/Kraft- och värmeteknologi

   Author : Youssef Benmakhlouf Andaloussi; [2018]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Given the intermittent nature of renewable energy sources, integrated storage solutions are necessary to accomplish the energy shift necessary for sustainable development. In the case of solar, PV-BESS tend to be highly capital intensive, especially for long storage hours most needed to guarantee stable electricity production day and night. READ MORE

6. 5. VESSEL FLEET OPTIMISATION FOR OFFSHORE WIND POWER MAINTENANCE

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

   Author : Dimitrios Liapodimitris; [2017]
   Keywords : Wind; Energy; Offshore; Maintenance; Optimisation; Optimization; Vessels; O M;

   Abstract : Wind power has been a leading energy source in the renewable energy sector. The offshore wind power industry is rapidly growing, having the advantages of great wind resources, with minimum impact on residential areas; however, the high O&M costs add significantly to the LCOE, and present a challenge to the project developers and operators.
