  1. 21. Development of Typical Load Profiles on residential electricity consumption using attribute data on electric vehicles, heating systems and fuse sizes

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Industriell teknik

    Author : Aikaterini Manousidou; Martina Lundberg; [2022]
    Keywords : Typical Load Profiles; electric vehicles; load curves; smart grid; electrification; Velander formula;

    Abstract : It is time to phase out fossil fuels and invest our efforts in green energy production through a major restructuring of the energy system. At the same time, more people are acquiring electric vehicles (EVs), thus creating a higher demand of electricity, and solar panels, allowing the consumer to also be a micro-producer. READ MORE

  4. 24. Design of a Polygeneration system in Filipinas ETCR, Colombia

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

    Author : Germán Ropero Pérez; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This project has addressed the design of a cost-effective Polygeneration system that guarantees a continuous, equitable and environmentally friendly energy supply for the rural settlement of Filipinas ETCR, (in Spanish, Espacios Territoriales de Capacitación y Reincorporación) Colombia, which is currently not achieved, due to a system that relies on the national electricity grid (with numerous outages) and on LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas) and wood to meet the thermal demand, mainly for cooking. For this purpose, in addition to the current energy supply situation, the energy demand according to type (electricity and heat) and sector (residential, commercial and agro-livestock) is characterized.
