  1. 1. Shared PV systems in multi-scaled communities

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Energi och byggnadsdesign; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för arkitektur och byggd miljö

    Author : Alina Pasina; Affonso Lazlo Lima Canoilas; [2022]
    Keywords : PV-sharing; Solar; Renewable; Photovoltaic; Profitability; Self-Consumption; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : In the past years, Sweden had been facing rapid growth of photovoltaic cells and total PV installation capacity increased from 300 kW to 1090 MW (2006-2020). To increase the number of PV users and therefore assist in achieving multiple sustainable goals regarding renewable energy, the installations of such systems were actively supported by the Swedish government.

  3. 2. CCS via Electrochemical CO2 Reduction to Ethylene-based Polymeric Construction Materials

    University essay from KTH/Kemiteknik

    Author : Christian Taylor; [2021]
    Keywords : CCS; Electrochemical CO2 Reduction; CO2 to Ethylene; Power-to-X; Polymeric Construction Materials; Circular Carbon Economy; Electrolysis; CO2 electroreduction; CCS; Elektrokemisk CO2-reduktion; Koldioxid till Eten; Power-to-X; Polymera konstruktionsmaterial; Cirkulär kolekonomi; elektrolys; CO2-elektroreduktion;

    Abstract : IPCC SR15 rapporterade att alla framtida scenarier för att begränsa klimatförändringen till 1,5°C är starkt beroende av negativa utsläppstekniker, såsom geografisk CO2-lagring som används av Stockholm Exergi’s Värtaverket. Men kan man uppnå starkare klimatvinster genom en cirkulär koldioxidekonomi? Bildandet av en cirkulär koldioxidekonomi är absolut nödvändigt för att uppnå global koldioxidneutralitet, men hur kommer vi dit? Elektrolys av CO2 erbjuder en ekonomiskt och miljömässigt attraktiv väg för att uppgradera CO2-utsläpp till värdefulla bränslen och råvaror, vilket minskar användningen av fossila resurser och CO2-utsläpp till atmosfären.

  4. 3. Remote sensing analysis of land cover/use conditions of community-based wildlife conservation areas in Tanzania

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Kharid Mwakoba; [2021]
    Keywords : geography; Geographical Information Systems; GIS; remote sensing; wildlife management area; Tanzania; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Community based approaches to conservation in the developing world have generally been criticized for not meeting their goals of sustainable conservation and local development. Inadequate local participation and inequitable benefits sharing among others are some of the major concerns. READ MORE

  5. 4. How Can Unit Pricing Be Employed and Improve Municipal Waste Management in Shanghai?

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Internationella miljöinstitutet

    Author : Lan Li; [2020]

  6. 5. Solar photovoltaic potential to complement hydropower in Ecuador : a GIS-based framework of analysis

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Jose Jara Alvear; [2018]
    Keywords : photovoltaic; hydropower; complementarity; GIS; Ecuador; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : In Ecuador, more than 85% of electricity production relies on hydropower and consequently the supply of electricity relies on water availability. During the dry season (October-March) hydropower capacity could diminish up to one-third of its installed capacity or more under a severe drought causing a substantial augmentation of thermoelectric power output to offset the lack of hydropower to cover electricity demand, and consequently increasing the overall operational cost and emission of CO2 of the power system.
