1. 1. Powering Sustainable Growth: Investigating Energy Efficiency in Chilean Industry through Decomposition Analysis

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Ekonomisk-historiska institutionen

   Author : Pablo Andrés Serrano Olea; [2023]
   Keywords : LMDI; Chile; Decomposition; Industry; Decoupling; Energy; Energy Intensity; Business and Economics; Social Sciences;

   Abstract : This research aims to study the energy efficiency of the Chilean industry sector using decomposition analysis methods to understand energy intensity decoupling from economic output. The study focuses on the industry sector, the biggest energy consumer, and utilises a dataset that specifies subindustries' energy consumption and economic contribution to GDP. READ MORE

3. 2. 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.
