  1. 1. Improvement of anautomatic networkdrawing algorithm in thecontext of utility networks

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

    Author : Hyacinthe Ménard; [2024]
    Keywords : District Heating Network; Mathematical Optimization; Python; Fjärrvärme; Optimeringslära; Python;

    Abstract : The European Union’s ambitious climate targets necessitate substantial reductions in greenhouse gas emissions, particularly within the heating and cooling sector, which accounts for a significant portion of energy consumption. District Heating and Cooling (DHC) systems emerge as a key solution for decarbonizing this sector by enabling high efficiency heat production and the integration of renewable and carbon-neutral energy sources.

  2. 2. Socio-technical imaginaries of the energy transition in Iceland, potential consequences for future conservation efforts

    University essay from Lunds universitet/LUCSUS

    Author : Sigurlaug Guðmundsdóttir; [2023]
    Keywords : energy transition; conservation; socio-technical imaginaries; discourse analysis; political ecology; Iceland; Sustainability Science; Social Sciences;

    Abstract : In 2021, the Icelandic government stated that Iceland will implement an energy transition plan with the goal of becoming a 100% carbon neutral and fossil free nation by 2040, furthermore, that a doubling in renewable energy production was needed to reach that goal. This led to an upsurge of a discourse among stakeholders and concerned citizens about the future of Iceland. READ MORE

  3. 3. Modeling of an Electrolysis System for Techno-Economic Optimization of Hydrogen Production

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

    Author : Jürgen Köstlbacher; [2023]
    Keywords : Hydrogen; Hydrogen Production; Green Hydrogen; LCOH; Electrolysis; PEM; AEL; MILP; Optimization; Techno-Economic Analysis; Cost Optimization; PPA; vätgas; vätgasproduktion; grön vätgas; LCOH; elektrolys; PEM; AEL; MILP; optimering; tekniskekonomisk analys; kostnadsoptimering; PPA;

    Abstract : In face of climate change, Europe and other global actors are in the process of transitioning to carbon-neutral economies, aiming to phase out of fossil fuels and power industries with renewable energies. Hydrogen is going to play a crucial role in the transition, replacing fossil fuels in hard-to-decarbonize industries and acting as energy carrier and energy storage for renewable electricity.

  4. 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 : 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.

  5. 5. Biogas Potential in the North of Sweden : Inventory and Techno-Economic Assessment of Substrates for an Increased Biogas Production in Norrbotten

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

    Author : Alma Fahlén Hammar; [2023]
    Keywords : Biogas; anaerobic digestion; AD; Norrland; bioenergy; fossil-free; chemical engineering; Chemistry; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Great investments are planned in the north of Sweden the coming years, not the least in the county of Norrbotten where the projects collectively are referred to as the green transition due to the focus on fossil-free techniques. But to be able to secure a sustainable energy supply and reach the goal set by the member states of the European Union of a carbon dioxide neutral union in 2050 the production of alternative energy sources needs to intensify.
