  1. 21. Life Cycle Perspective on School Buildings’ Energy Retrofitting

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Maryam Kafashtehrani; [2022]
    Keywords : School; building; LCA; IDA-ICE; energy retrofitting; insulation; ventilation; photovoltaic; PV; GHG;

    Abstract : The building sector contributes substantial energy consumption and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Energy efficiency is the main driver for the mitigation of climate change. Schools are placed with high energy consumption and GHG emitting. READ MORE

  2. 22. Agrivoltaic Implementation in Greenhouses : A Techno-Economic Analysis of Agrivoltaic Installations for Greenhouses in Sweden

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

    Author : Henrik Gauffin; [2022]
    Keywords : Agrivoltaics; Agrophotovoltaics; Photovoltaics; Greenhouse; Battery Energy Storage System; Agrivoltaics for Greenhouses; Techno-Economic Assesment; AV; APV; PV.;

    Abstract : Due to the growing population and climate change, the world will see an increase in demand for food, freshwater and renewable energy supply. Agrivoltaics has the possibility to address all these problems, by producing food and renewable energy but also by reducing water usage in agriculture. READ MORE

  3. 23. Life Cycle Assessment of a small scale, solar driven HVR water purification system

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

    Author : Sharang Kolathur; [2022]
    Keywords : life cycle assessment; air gap membrane distillation; solar energy; levelized cost; grid operated system; livscykelanalys; luftgapmembrandestillation; solenergi; utjämnade kostnader; nätdrivet system;

    Abstract : Water purification systems have made access to drinking water easier by treating water sources which previously could not be used for drinking. Such systems however require energy and materials to build and operate which means they have environmental impacts. READ MORE

  4. 24. The Efficiency of PV Modules: Expectations vs. Reality : A study of the Degradation of Solar Panels in Sweden

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och industriell teknik

    Author : Julia Forssblad; Linnea Lisper; Olivia Stålnacke; Vera Tonell; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Solar energy is one of the fastest growing green energy sources worldwide today. Thepioneer modules in Sweden have been in use for quite some time. The aim of the reporthas been to examine how PV modules in Sweden have degraded a few years into theirlife cycle. This was accomplished using data from PV modules installed no later than2014.

  5. 25. Possible implementations of agrivoltaics in Sweden : With focus on solar irradiation and electricity production

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Solcellsteknik

    Author : Jennifer Suuronen; [2022]
    Keywords : solar; agrivoltaics; solar cells; integrated system; agriculture; solar irradiation;

    Abstract : With a need for rapid growth of renewable energy sources like photovoltaics, there will also be a competition of land. Agriculture and solar energy share the same optimum conditions of land to produce. But with a combination of the two on the same surface, a concept called agrivoltaic, that issue can be solved.
