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

   Author : NINA JABŁOŃSKA; [2023]
   Keywords : 24 7 Carbon-free Energy; carbon accounting; corporate electricity procurement; Energy Attribute Certificates; hourly matching; the Netherlands.; 24 7 kolfri energi; koldioxidredovisning; företagens elupphandling; energiattributcertifikat; timmatchning; Nederländerna.;

   Abstract : Considering the growing importance of the electricity sector in the worldwide decarbonisation efforts, as well as large volumes of energy consumed by the commercial and industrial (C&I) sector, corporate power procurement is found to be a significant contributor to building a net zero economy. Within this topic, hourly matching of carbon-free electricity supply with demand, or 24/7 Carbon-free Energy (24/7 CFE), is identified as a next-generation power procurement framework, with growing interest from a wide range of stakeholders in the energy sector and benefits backed by robust research evidence.

4. 3. Financial viability of producing hydrogen in windfarms in the Nordic region

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för elektroteknik

   Author : Juan Munoz; [2023]
   Keywords : Hydrogen; Wind; Energy; Ammonia; Nordic;

   Abstract : With the perspective of a growing hydrogen market that responds to the energy sector requirements for a carbon-free fuel and/or storage method, analyzing the financial viability of producing green hydrogen in the Nordic region is of great importance to understand the possibilities of local supply and the role that the strongly present wind industry can have in it.  Additionally, the possibility of the construction of a dedicated hydrogen pipeline connecting Sweden, Finland, Denmark, and possibly other countries in the Nordic area, changes the previously analyzed scenarios of only local demand, close to production; incorporating this infrastructure into the simulations will shed light upon the possibilities for a Nordic hydrogen market.
