  1. 26. On the Profitability of Large-scale PV Plants in Sweden : Site Selection, Grid Connection and Design

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

    Author : Annelie Westén; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The market for large scale PV plants in Sweden is growing, with six PV plants of 1 MWp or more beinginstalled today. The size of the newly installed plants has increased from 1 MWp to 5.5 MWp during thelast 5 years. As the market and size of the plants continue to grow, larger investments, risks and possibleprots will be built into the project. READ MORE

  5. 29. Optimization of energy dispatch in concentrated solar power systems : Design of dispatch algorithm in concentrated solar power tower system with thermal energy storage for maximized operational revenue

    University essay from KTH/Kraft- och värmeteknologi

    Author : Anna Strand; [2019]
    Keywords : concentrated solar power; CSP; energy dispatch; optimization; thermal energy storage; renewable energy; mixed-integer linear programming; koncentrerad solkraft; CSP; energiavsändande; optimering; termisk energilagring; förnybar energi; linjär programmering;

    Abstract : Concentrated solar power (CSP) is a fast-growing technology for electricity production. With mirrors (heliostats) irradiation of the sun is concentrated onto a receiver run through by a heat transfer fluid (HTF). The fluid by that reaches high temperatures and is used to drive a steam turbine for electricity production. READ MORE
