  1. 1. CO-LOCATION OF WIND AND SOLAR POWER IN SOUTHERN SWEDEN

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Michail Iakovos Dragasis; [2023]
    Keywords : Hybrid renewable energy system; Profitability; Lithium-ion battery storage system;

    Abstract : This paper examines the possibility of adding a photovoltaic(PV) power station to an already planned wind park in terms of profitability. At this time, southern Sweden’s grid is facing a number of challenges and is hurting economic development. Hybrid parks have showed to be able to tackle some of those challenges. READ MORE

  3. 2. Developing a Cost Model For Combined Offshore Farms : The Advantages of Co-Located Wind and Wave Energy

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

    Author : Eva Blech; [2023]
    Keywords : Wave Energy; Floating Offshore Wind; Co-located Wind-Wave Farm; Levelized Cost of Energy; Multi-Source Offshore Farm; Vågenergi; flytande havsbaserad vindkraft; samlokaliserad vind- och vågpark; nivellerad energikostnad; havsbaserad park med flera källor;

    Abstract : Previous research has displayed that multi-source farms provide an opportunity to reduce the cost of energy and improve the energy output quality. This thesis assesses the cost competitiveness of co-located wind-wave farms, specifically floating offshore wind (FLOW) turbines and CorPower’s wave energy converters (WEC). READ MORE

  4. 3. Tracking Optimization in Agrivoltaic Systems : A Comparative Study for Apple Orchards

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

    Author : Maddalena Bruno; [2023]
    Keywords : Agrivoltaics; Optimization; Light sharing; Apple Orchards; Lantbruk; Optimering; Ljusdelning; Äppelodlingar;

    Abstract : Agrivoltaic (APV) systems, based on the co-location of solar panels and crops, are an innovative solution to land-use conflicts that often arise between agriculture and energy production. Their optimal functioning starts with efficient management and sharing of light between solar panels and underlying plants. READ MORE

    Abstract : This thesis examines the risks and implications posed by the expansion of the renewable energy sector, using the perspective of Swedish solar facilities and the renewable project developer OX2. The paper is presented as a case study, primarily based on a qualitative methodology, involving interviews with various stakeholders. READ MORE

  6. 5. A Contingency Framework for Assessing the Commercial Potential of Utility-scale Agrivoltaics

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för ekonomi, teknik, konst och samhälle

    Author : Filippa Larsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Agrivoltaic; Agriphotovoltaic; AV; AGV; Solar Photovoltaic; Solar PV; Commercialization; Commercial Potential; Utility-scale; Contingency Framework; Stakeholder s ; Renewable Energy; Renewables;

    Abstract : Purpose - In the pursuit of renewable energy sources, solar photovoltaic (PV) is predicted to become the single biggest global source of energy by the year of 2027, part of a trilemma involving climate change, biodiversity and food security. Agrivoltaic (AV) systems, the co-location and potential symbiosis between agricultural activities and solar PV, has thereby arisen as a potential solution for dual land-use. READ MORE
