1. 1. Techno-economic analysis and simulation of low temperature district heating networks

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

   Author : Ilia Iarkov; [2023]
   Keywords : Low-temperature district heating; Modelica; BTES; LCA; LCC; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : The continuous increase in global energy consumption has led to a greater focus on the energy required for heating buildings. This thesis presents a techno-economic model for analysing low-temperature district heating networks coupled with a geothermal heat source. READ MORE

3. 2. The polarized attitudes of offshore wind - The social acceptance of planned offshore wind farm Västvind among Öckerö municipality residents

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Centrum för miljö- och klimatvetenskap (CEC)

   Author : Milla Marzelius; [2023]
   Keywords : Offshore wind energy; Social acceptance; Place attachment; Västvind; Öckerö; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Abstract : Climate change, the energy crisis of 2022-2023, and estimations of future electricity demands have stressed the necessity for a rapid transition of the energy system. Offshore wind energy plays an important role in this transition, and is expected to expand considerably on a global level, in the EU and in Sweden. READ MORE

4. 3. Reprocessing and Characterization of Polybenzimidazole for High-Temperature Polymer Electrolyte Membrane Fuel Cells

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Centrum för analys och syntes

   Author : Douglas Björkengren; [2023]
   Keywords : polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells; PEMFC; HTPEMFC; polymer technology; polymer characterization; reprocessing; recycling; polybenzimidazole; PBI; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : A reprocessing method of poly(2,2’-(m-phenylene)-5,5’-bibenzimidazole) (PBI) membranes recovered from the production line of High-Temperature Polymer Electrolyte Membrane Fuel Cells (HT-PEMFC) at Blue World Technologies (BWT) has been developed in order to reduce material loss in the production. Redissolution of scrap PBI membranes in poly(phosphoric acid) (PPA) and phosphoric acid (PA) was successful and the subsequent washing procedure produced PBI that could be redissolved in N,N-dimethyl acetamide (DMAc) and suitable for solution casting of new membranes.

5. 4. Disentangling the Green vs. Green Dilemma to Inform Sustainable Destination Development : The Interplay between Onshore Wind Power Development and Biodiversity Conservation

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och industriell teknik

   Author : Tural Omarov; [2023]
   Keywords : sustainable destination development; wind power; biodiversity; Mitigation Hierarchy; onshore wind; sustainable development; hållbar destinationsutveckling; vindkraft; biologisk mångfald;

   Abstract : Sustainable Destination Development implies reaching the 17 SDGs at a destination level. Climate crisis is arguably the primary challenge faced by destinations today. It is now commonly accepted that the crisis is primarily caused due to the burning of fossil fuels while converting it into energy. READ MORE

6. 5. Exploring the benefits of a PV and Battery Storage System : A case study of the economic and environmental impact of implementing a PV and Battery Storage System in a Swedish church

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och industriell teknik

   Author : Axel Rönngren; Maya Ketuly; Nils Knutsson; Tyra Malmström; [2023]
   Keywords : energy storage; battery storage system; solar panels;

   Abstract : This bachelor thesis investigates the implementation of a solar panel and battery storage system in a Swedish church that is intermittently heated focusing on its economic effect and its environmental impact in terms of CO2 emissions. The models are developed to evaluate the costs and CO2 emissions associated with power production, storage, usage and installation of the implemented system. READ MORE
