  1. 1. Navigating Sustainability : A case study exploring alternative energy sources for maritime shipping

    University essay from KTH/Industriell ekonomi och organisation (Inst.)

    Author : Simon Nordenskiöld; [2024]
    Keywords : Maritime shipping; Alternative energy sources; Alternative fuels; Hydrogen-based fuels; Sustainable shipping; Electrofuels; Electro-methanol; Liquid Hydrogen; Electro-ammonia; Sails; Wind; Technological Innovation System; Sjöfart; Alternativa energikällor; Alternativa bränslen; Vätebaseradebränslen; Hållbar sjöfart; Elektrobränslen; Elektrometanol; Flytande väte; Elektroammoniak; Segel; Vind; Technological Innovation Systems;

    Abstract : This master thesis studies alternative energy sources for maritime shipping in Sweden. With current climate goals, and a need for change, the maritime sector currently undergoes intense transitions. For shipping companies to lower their carbon footprint, the need to replace non decarbonised fuels is hence critical. READ MORE

  2. 2. Exploring potential E-fuel production pathways for maritime and aviation sectors in France : a techno-economic and environmental assessment

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

    Author : Mathieu Minaud; [2024]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The aviation and maritime industries pose significant challenges for decarbonization, having increased activity in the past decade. One promising solution to limit emissions in these sectors is Electrofuels (E-fuel), derived from water electrolysis hydrogen and captured CO2 or nitrogen. READ MORE

  3. 3. The Role of Technology Shifts in Urban Decarbonization Modelling : Scenario creation and implementation

    University essay from KTH/Energisystem

    Author : Batiste Fourniols; [2024]
    Keywords : Urban area; Decarbonization policies; Scenario modeling; District heating; Gas distribution network; Geospatial resolution; Stadsområde; utfasning av fossila bränslen; scenariomodellering; fjärrvärme; gasdistributionsnät; geospatial upplösning;

    Abstract : This work includes modelling of decarbonization scenarios at the scale of an urban area, providing policy insights and a methodology focusing on introducing district heating and maintaining the existing gas distribution network in a case study. With a focus on reducing gas consumption in the residential and tertiary sectors, the research integrates scenario developments giving a methodology to develop district heating, requiring a careful balance in selecting the optimal scale for city-wide analysis.

  4. 4. Life Cycle Assessment : a comparison of fossil energy use and climate impact on small scale manufacturing and large scale conventional manufacturing of textile toys

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Energy and Technology

    Author : Malin Henriksen; [2024]
    Keywords : textile toy; LCA; energy use; sustainable production; China; Sri Lanka; cotton production; fossil fuel use; GWP100;

    Abstract : This study conducts a Life Cycle Assessment to compare the environmental impacts, specifically climate impact and fossil fuel use, of textile toys produced in China and Sri Lanka. Through evaluating large-scale industrial production in China against small-scale, handcrafted production in Sri Lanka, it identifies the considerable environmental footprint of cotton production in both scenarios.

  5. 5. Investigating the dynamics between the developing Nordic hydrogen market and the electricity system under uncertainty

    University essay from KTH/Energiteknik

    Author : Timon Renzelmann; [2024]
    Keywords : energy modelling; energy storage; global sensitivity analysis; hydrogen; Method of Morris; Nordics; OSeMOSYS; uncertainty analysis; energimodellering; energilagring; global känslighetsanalys; vätgas; Morris-metoden; Nordiska länder; OSeMOSYS; osäkerhetsanalys;

    Abstract : The potential of hydrogen as a clean energy carrier is hotly debated, but it promises to significantly contribute to a sustainable energy future. Hydrogen can replace fossil fuels in carbon-intensive industries, heavy transport and aviation, and support a renewable energysystem by acting as energy storage to balance intermittent supply.
