  1. 1. Coordination of base station energy storage for renewable energy grid : Utilizing Base Station battery storage to stabilize grids with Variable Renewable Energy Sources

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

    Author : Linus Pekkanen; [2022]
    Keywords : Renewable Energy; Energy Storage; Optimal Control; Model Predictive Control; Smart Grids; Machine Learning; Neural Networks; Base Stations; Telecommunications; Förnybar Energi; Energilagring; Optimal Kontroll; Modellprediktiv Reglering; Smarta Elnät; Maskininlärning; Neurala Nätverk; Basstationer; Telekommunikation;

    Abstract : An increasing amount of variable renewable energy sources are being added to the world’s power grids both as an effort to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the fight against climate change but also because some of the energy sources with the lowest levelized cost of energy are variable renewable energy sources such as wind and photovoltaics. These energy sources come with inherent difficulties since their energy production is neither constant nor entirely controllable and can cause issues for the power grids if they cause power production and consumption to become imbalanced.

  2. 2. Monitoring of heat exchanges in thesnowpack of Foxfonna glacier, Spitzbergen,Svalbard.

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Förbränningsfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Thibault Desjonquères; [2022]
    Keywords : Glaciers; Glaciology; Svalbard; Geophysics; Superimposed Ice; Foxfonna; Geology.; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The processes of meltwater storage in firn and the impact of refreezing on firn-coveredglaciers have been investigated on the Greenland ice-sheet. On Svalbard, climate changepromotes the disappearance of firn on glaciers. READ MORE

  3. 3. Strategies for regional deployment of hydrogen infrastructure : The case of North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany

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

    Author : Roberto Di Molfetta; [2022]
    Keywords : Hydrogen; Infrastructure rollout; Supply chain pathways; Mobility; Hydrogen buses.;

    Abstract : In response to the growing urge towards decarbonisation, more and more initiatives have been set to reduce and/or compensate the level of CO2 (carbon dioxide) emitted by human activities, which is one of the main responsible of the incumbent threats of “global warming” and “climate change”. “Climate neutrality by 2050” has become a decisive topic for political agendas worldwide and, against that background, the hydrogen economy can play a significant role.

  4. 4. Mitigating the Urban Heat Island Effect in a Local Context : how wind and vegetation regulate temperatures during summer, with an example from the grounds of Karlstad Central Hospital, Sweden

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Landscape Architecture, Planning and Management (from 130101)

    Author : Patricia Kirkhorn; [2022]
    Keywords : GIS; Envi-met; microclimate; climate change; vegetation; wind; city planning; urban heat island; thermal comfort;

    Abstract : Climate change is the cause of more weather extremes. Cities' dense configuration, heat absorbing surfaces and low amount of vegetation leads to higher temperatures within cities known as the urban heat island effect (UHI). READ MORE

  5. 5. Shallow near-surface lapse rates and their connection to glacier meteorology on Storglaciären and Rabots glaciär, Northern Sweden

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi

    Author : Moon Taveirne; [2022]
    Keywords : Temperature lapse rate; glacier meteorology; near-­surface lapse rate; ablation gradient;

    Abstract : Glacier melt is strongly impacted by climate and meteorology. Temperature lapse rates are used to model glacier melt, and the accuracy of the spatial distribution of modelled melt can be impacted by the lapse rate used in modelling. Additionally, the observed spatial distribution of melt is highly temporally variable. READ MORE
