  2. 2. Commodity Price Boom and Copper mines in Chile: The assessment of local spillover effects on the labor market.

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Ekonomisk-historiska institutionen

    Author : Silvia Navarro Berdeal; [2019]
    Keywords : Commodity price boom; labour multipliers; natural resources; gender disparities; women labour markets.; Social Sciences;

  5. 5. Impact of Time-of-Delivery Schemes on Optimum Solar Hybrid Power Plants- A Techno-Economic Study

    University essay from KTH/Energiteknik

    Author : Hansson Linus; [2016]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Analyses concerned with identifying optimal plant configurations of solar power plants can be expanded by implementing payment schemes where prices are unknown but daily occurring payment multipliers in the form of Time-of-Delivery (TOD) factors are known by enhancing the impact of financial conditions in optimal designs through the use of financial models. The hybridisation of solar technologies such as CSP with TES with photovoltaics (PV) and battery energy storage systems (BESS) have also been shown to offer promising synergies in terms of economy and design.
