  1. 1. Energy efficiency and fiscal incentives : A stochastic frontier analysis of Swedish manufacturing sectors 2008-2020

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Nationalekonomi

    Author : William Blombäck; [2024]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This thesis is a case study of the Swedish manufacturing industry in which I measure how efficiently each sector uses energy (fuel and electricity) as input goods in their production processes, and how significant the impact of Sweden’s energy tax is in regard to energy efficiency. The purpose of this is to analyze energy security and preparedness for short-term demand shocks for electricity, as many ‘mega-investments’ of industrial nature are being planned in Sweden – which are predicted to require the installed capacity of Sweden’s electricity production to almost double by 2045.

  3. 2. TECHNOLOGICAL ASSESSMENT OF HYDROGEN (FUTURE SCENARIOS: SOCIOLOGICAL, ENVIRONMENTAL, ECONOMIC, AND ENERGETIC ASPECTS)

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

    Author : Arturo Martínez Lozano; [2023-03-08]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Nowadays, the term energy transition is coming into vogue, as many countries are adopting the climate change agenda across the world to achieve sustainable development goals and change from nonrenewable energies to those coming from inexhaustible energy sources, that are more efficient and less polluting. Power-to-hydrogen is an auspicious solution for storing variable renewable energies. READ MORE

  4. 3. Assessing the economic and environmental impacts of leasing batteries for electric vehicle fleets

    University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Institutionen för industriell ekonomi

    Author : Miguel Angel Gonzalez Salazar; Georgios Kormazos; [2023]
    Keywords : circularity; LCA; NPV; leasing; batteries; electric vehicles;

    Abstract : Battery electric vehicles (BEV) powered by renewable energy are expected to enable a largedecarbonization of the land-based transport. Recent estimations of the International EnergyAgency suggest that BEVs could grow 20-fold by 2030, reaching 200 to 350 million unitsglobally. READ MORE

  5. 4. CCU in Scandinavia: an uncertainty analysis regarding the future state of captured carbon in the region.

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

    Author : Marta Gebellí Carrasco; William Melander; [2023]
    Keywords : CCU; E-kerosene; Precast concrete; CO2 utilization; Scandinavian region; Defossilization; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The urgent need to mitigate climate change has prompted researchers to investigate novel strategies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. One promising technology that might ease the way for sustainable and circular economies is carbon capture and utilization (CCU), which not only captures CO2 emissions but also uses them to produce valuable products.

  6. 5. The Higgs Width in Higgs production in association with a W+ boson

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Teoretisk partikelfysik - Geonomgår omorganisation

    Author : Wijeratne Mohandiramge Umashi Navisha Fernando; [2023]
    Keywords : Higgs boson; Higgs width; off-shell; on-shell; narrow-width approximation; MadGraph5_MC@NLO; W boson; supersymmetry; dark matter; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The width of the Higgs boson is a quantity that cannot be measured directly from the on-shell Higgs peak; it would have to be measured indirectly. In 2013, Caola and Melnikov developed a method to determine the Higgs width by using off-shell and on-shell cross-sections and applying the narrow-width approximation. READ MORE
