1. 11. Structural strengthening and sustainability improvements of existing buildings – A case study

   University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för byggteknik (BY)

   Author : Pardis Niknafs; [2022]
   Keywords : Building retrofit; structural strengthening; energy efficiency; environmental impact; integrated and sustainable intervention; cross-laminated timber; life cycle assessment;

   Abstract : In Sweden, a large share of residential buildings was built more than 50 years ago. Consequently, old materials, poor maintenance, and corrosion can affect the structural performance of these buildings. Additionally, these buildings do not meet the latest energy efficiency and Eurocode regulations. READ MORE

3. 12. Dynamic management of schedulable household assets for solar self-consumption maximization with demand side management

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

   Author : Tharun Narayanadhas; [2022]
   Keywords : Demand-side management; Mixed-integer linear programming MILP ; Photovoltaics PV ; Self-consumption; Styrning av efterfrågan; linjär programmering med blandade heltal MILP ; solceller PV ; självförbrukning.;

   Abstract : A crucial challenge introduced by the decentralized installations of photovoltaic (PV) systems in the residential sector, is the mismatch between PV electricity generation and the load curve for energy consumption. To overcome this incompatibility between production and consumption, energy storage and demand response are seen as effective solutions. READ MORE

4. 13. 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

5. 14. Improving the Efficiency of Thermal Energy Usage in Residential Buildings by Heat Recovery from Wastewater

   University essay from Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för företagande, innovation och hållbarhet

   Author : Pranjal Jain; Khaled Alturkmani; [2021]
   Keywords : Wastewater; Heat Exchangers; Heat Pumps; Biofilms;

   Abstract : This study aims to rationalize the consumption of thermal energy in residential buildings by recovering heat from wastewater inside the building before entering the central sewage network outside the building, by conducting an analytical study for a residential tower in Syria to find out the coverage percentage of the heat energy recovered from wastewater for the heating and domestic hot water loads needed for the tower, and calculating the percentage of reduction in carbon dioxide (CO2) gases. It is a simple technology as the thermal recovery system consists of three main components, which are in order: a wastewater tank, heat exchangers, and a heat pump. READ MORE

6. 15. Effect of Heatwaves on the Cooling Demand of Austrian Residential Buildings

   University essay from KTH/Energiteknik

   Author : Apoorv Mukati; [2021]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Buildings account for 40% of total energy consumption and 36% of CO2 emissions in the European Union. In 2019, households, or the residential sector, represented 26.3 % of final energy consumption in the EU out of which space cooling represented 0.4% energy consumption (Eurostat, 2021). READ MORE
