1. 1. Variation Management Strategies for Future Construction Sites: A study to address role of an equipment rental business in the energy transition

   University essay from

   Author : Ellen Blanksvärd; Frida Svensson; [2023-09-21T12:07:03Z 2023-09-21T12:07:03Z 2023 2023]
   Keywords : battery storage; variation management; flexibility services; peak shaving; load shifting; demand side management; rental business; electrification; construction equipment; construction sites;

   Abstract : Construction sites are facing challenges with high power peaks due to electrificationof heavy equipment where potential consequences are increased power tariffs locallyand risk of limited power supply. Another development is an increased intermittentpower supply due to more wind- and solar power in the electricity system, whichcauses price fluctuations. READ MORE

3. 2. On the road to grid stability - Using batteries in heavy vehicles and charging infrastructure as frequency reserves

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Produktionsekonomi

   Author : Matilda Kjellström; Caroline Wuttke; [2023]
   Keywords : Case Study; Electrification; Frequency regulation; Energy reserve; Battery; Heavy vehicles; Vehicle-to-grid; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Background: Climate change and increasing threats that come with it fosters a need for changing from fossil sources of energy to renewable ones. Sweden aims to have net zero greenhouse gas emissions by the year of 2045. One of the sectors that need to take part in this shift towards fossil free energy is the transport industry. READ MORE

4. 3. Fast charging of electrical vehicles with help from battery energy storage systems : A study of how batteries can lower the power peaks for fast charging of electrical vehicles in Stockholm

   University essay from KTH/Hälsoinformatik och logistik

   Author : Erik Wikström; [2023]
   Keywords : Electric vehicle; fast charging; direct current charging; battery energy storage system; Elfordon; snabbladdning; likströmsladdning; batterienergilagringssystem;

   Abstract : To enable fast charging of electric vehicles in Stockholm or sites where the electrical energy is limited and the number of chargeable vehicles increases, there is a need to investigate new solutions to comply with the future demand. The goal of this project is to investigate what the conditions are in Stockholm today and investigate what is needed to enable fast chargers in Stockholm city. READ MORE

5. 4. When is Electric Freight Cost Competitive? : Computational modeling and simulation of total cost of ownership for electric truck fleets

   University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för ekonomisk och industriell utveckling

   Author : Anton Zackrisson; [2023]
   Keywords : electric freight; battery-electric trucks; total cost of ownership; decision making under deep uncertainty DMDU ; cost-competitiveness; exploratory modeling and analysis EMA ; EMA workbench; quasi-Monte Carlo method; VRP; EVRP; elektrifiering; godstransport; elektriska lastbilar; total ägandekostnad; kostnadskonkurrenskraft; ruttoptimering;

   Abstract : Battery electric trucks (BETs) offer environmental benefits in terms of reduced carbon emissions and enhanced energy efficiency but have been challenged with economic viability compared to conventional internal combustion engine trucks (ICETs) caused by substantial acquisition costs, limited charging infrastructure, and concerns regarding range and payload capacity.  Previous studies focus on TCO at the vehicle or policy level but overlook the system and firm-level impacts.

6. 5. SAVINGS OF MATERIAL RESOURCES AND CARBON EMISSIONS WHEN CONVERTING FOSSIL FUEL CAR TO ELECTRIC : A CASE STUDY FOR SWEDEN

   University essay from KTH/Integrated Transport Research Lab, ITRL; KTH/Elkraftteknik

   Author : Daniel Hiller; [2022]
   Keywords : LCA; carbon emissions; material resources; fossil fuel vehicles; battery electric vehicles; carculator; Sweden; LCA; Kohlenstoffemissionen; Materialressourcen; Fahrzeuge mit fossilen Brennstoffen; batterieelektrische Fahrzeuge; carculator; Schweden;

   Abstract : Transportation in Sweden currently accounts for one-third of domestic GHG emissions. Thereof more than 90 % are allocated to road traffic with passenger cars being the largest contributor. Hence, the Swedish government adopted stringent climate policies to cut transport emissionsby 70 % (compared to 2010) latest until 2030. READ MORE
