  1. 1. Study case: The water-cooling effect on floating photovoltaic plants performance

    University essay from KTH/Energiteknik

    Author : Alice Dragon; [2024]
    Keywords : Solar photovoltaic; Floating photovoltaic; Performance analysis; Thermal loss; Panel Efficiency; Cooling effect; Solceller; Flytande solceller; Prestandaanalys; Termisk förlust; Panelens effektivitet; Kylande effekt;

    Abstract : Floating solar technology is relatively new, and it comes with its own set of challenges and opportunities. This master thesis focuses on understanding how Floating Photovoltaic (FPV) projects perform compared to Ground-Based Photovoltaic (GPV) projects, in specific weather conditions. READ MORE

  2. 2. Decentralizing electricity generation in Cuba : Implementation of a microgrid in the sugar mil lCarlos Baliño

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

    Author : Aylin Berber; Cornelia Eriksson; [2023]
    Keywords : Microgrid; renewable energy; bagasse; self-sufficiency; Microgrid; förnybar energi; bagass; självförsörjande;

    Abstract : Cuba has a long history of different dependencies and is a country facing many energy challenges, and therefore seeks to diversify its energy sources and reduce its reliance on fossil fuels. The purpose of this degree project is therefore to conceptualize a microgrid based on renewable energy sources for local energy sustainability at the lowest cost possible. READ MORE

  3. 3. Design of the model Community to Electric Vehicle to Community (C2V2C) for increased resilience and network friendliness in photovoltaic energy-sharing building communities

    University essay from Högskolan Dalarna/Institutionen för information och teknik

    Author : Edgar Mauricio Ocampo Alvarez; [2022]
    Keywords : C2V2C; Photovoltaic; Coordinated Control; Electric Vehicle; Electromobility; Power Balance;

    Abstract : Both the solar photovoltaic (PV) installation and electric vehicles (EVs) deployment are increasing significantly in Sweden. With the large-scale integration of PV and EVs, problems such as the voltage deviations and overloading of components can arise, since the existing distribution grids are not designed to host the large shares of new EV loads and the intermittent PV power feed-in.

  4. 4. Business Models for Energy Communities : A Case Study on the Swedish Market

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

    Author : Eric Hartmanis; Robin Lindblom; [2021]
    Keywords : Energy Communities; Prosumer; Business Models; Energy Systems; Renewable Energy; Photovoltaics; Lack of Grid Capacity; Energisamhällen; Energigemenskaper; Prosumer; Affärsmodell; Energisystem; Förnyelsebar Energi; Solceller; Effektbrist; Kapacitetsbrist;

    Abstract : Global warming is one of our time’s most pressing issues and the energy industry is the leading cause. In the current Swedish electricity systems, individual consumers hold little to no power as the system is inherently centralized, with large incumbent actors. READ MORE

  5. 5. Techno-economic feasibility for residential Local Energy Communities: Case study of Italy

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

    Author : Linda Colarullo; [2021]
    Keywords : Local Energy Community; Energy Sharing; Italy; Virtual Regulation Model; Distributed Renewable Energy Resources; Self-consumption maximization; Demand Side Management;

    Abstract : The use of renewable energy has proven to be essential for the decarbonisation of the energy system, bringing changes on both the production and consumption side, with an increase of renewable energy in the mix and a change in the role of consumers. From passive actors, Consumers are becoming Prosumers (producers and consumers) of self-generated energy, with the potential of becoming the pillar of the energy sector transition. READ MORE
