  1. 1. Leveraging green hydrogen to decarbonise the aviation industry : A case study on electrofuels in Sweden

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

    Author : Jakob Bergene; Jonathan Bruchhausen; [2023]
    Keywords : Electrofuel; e-fuel; electrokerosene; e-kerosene; SAF; sustainable aviation fuel; sustainable aviation; complementarity formation mechanisms; technology value chains; TVC; Techno-economic analysis; TEA; Elektrobränsle; e-bränsle; elektrofotogen; e-fotogen; SAF; sustainable aviation fuel; sustainable aviation; komplementära formationsmekanismer; technology value chains; TVC; Techno-economic analysis; TEA;

    Abstract : For the EU to reach its 2050 climate targets the aviation industry that is highly dependent on fossil fuels needs to drastically reduce its emissions. In the decarbonisation of the aviation industry drop-in sustainable aviation fuels (SAFs) have been identified as a promising solution to abate the industry’s emissions. READ MORE

  2. 2. EU ETS Fourth Phase Firm-Level Effects : An Exploratory Study of Implications for Swedish Industry within the EU ETS

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

    Author : JOAR HARALDSSON; LINUS LOGREN; [2022]
    Keywords : EU ETS; Phase 4; Swedish industry; EU Allowance; Harmonisation; Greenhouse gas abatement; Competitiveness; Carbon leakage; EU ETS; Fas 4; Svensk industri; EU Utsläppsrätt; Hamonisering; Minskning av växthusgaser; Konkurrens; Koldioxidläckage;

    Abstract : The European Union Emission Trading System (EU ETS) is the cornerstone of the EU's transition to climate neutrality by 2050. Significant carbon price increases and ambitious changes to the ETS make phase four (2021-2030) uncharted territory. READ MORE

  3. 3. Effects of solar parabolic- trough collectors in small- scale district heating systems

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för byggd miljö och energiteknik (BET)

    Author : Alejandro Monterrubio; [2022]
    Keywords : Parabolic-trough collector; direct normal radiation; diffuse radiation; insolation; carbon abatement cost; biomass; District Heating; Levelized cost of energy;

    Abstract : Reducing carbon emissions in our societies requires a massive shift towards renewables. In Sweden, biomass is the dominant source for the district heat production, but growing demand for biomass in other sectors may cause pressure on it. READ MORE

  4. 4. Come Fly with Me (Sustainably) : Pathways to Sustainable General Aviation and Private Pilot Training

    University essay from Högskolan i Gävle/Miljövetenskap

    Author : Michael Stiebe; [2022]
    Keywords : General Aviation; Sustainable Aviation; Sustainable Development; Electric Aviation; Noise Pollution; Leaded Fuel; AVGAS 100LL; Tetraethyl Lead Phaseout; Pilot Training; Recreational Aviation; Switzerland;

    Abstract : Whereas commercial aviation is attempting to achieve the reduction of its substantial carbon footprint, general aviation’s (GA) climate change contribution is negligibly small, which is why the sector is facing other sustainability challenges mainly entailing the operation of dated technology and aircraft, increasing regulatory constraints, rising costs, noise emissions, and popular discontent, as well as remaining the last mobility sector in the world to still use leaded fuels. Throughout recent years, there have been remarkable sustainability trends in GA as well as heightened efforts to improve its emissions profile (noise, pollutants, CO2) and environmental reputation, for instance by the increased use of electric aircraft, especially for private pilot training.

  5. 5. Effectiveness of using Organic Rankine cycle engine in small-scale district heating systems

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för byggd miljö och energiteknik (BET)

    Author : Sarah Ebhuomhan; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Co-production of electricity and heat using biomass is important in providing sustainable energy for the future. District heating systems, which are well established in Sweden, provide a great opportunity to co-produce electricity simultaneously. READ MORE
