   University essay from Linköpings universitet/Fordonssystem

   Author : Sandberg Elis; [2023]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : This thesis explores the potential of second-life electric vehicle batteries, which are no longer suitable for electro-mobility, to provide energy storage solutions. The study iden- tifies two potential applications for second-life batteries: charging stations and residential PV energy storage systems. READ MORE

3. 12. Electric Leisure Boats: Enablers and Barriers : A case study of leisure boat manufacturers

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

   Author : FREDRIK IHRFELT; [2023]
   Keywords : Leisure boats; electric boats; electrification; technology management; innovation; industrial transformation; accelerators.; Fritidsbåtar; elbåtar; elektrificering; teknikledning; innovation; industriell transformation; påskyndare.;

   Abstract : Combustion engines and fossil fuels have traditionally driven motor-powered leisure boats. Electrification is quickly transforming the transportation sector, but electric boats are rare. The primary drawback of the electric boat is the high production cost. READ MORE

4. 13. Dynamic Power Systems Modeling: Power Plant Types, Demand, and Environmental Impacts

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

   Author : Alexandra Papadopoulos; Linn Ekman; [2023]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : It is increasingly important to understand the dynamics of power systems. Most notably, thetransition towards renewable energy sources will radically change the way our power systemworks. A better understanding of the system dynamics is crucial to smoothly transitiontoward a sustainable system without undesirable side effects. READ MORE

6. 15. Unlocking the Potential of Solar-Hydro Hybrid Solutions: Feasibility and Economic Analysis

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Industriell elektroteknik och automation

   Author : Måns Rosberg; [2023]
   Keywords : Hydropower; Solarpower; Hybrid power production; Solar-hydro hybrid power; Reservoir storage; Energy storage; Pumped hydro power; Floating PV; PV; Photovoltaics; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Hybrid solutions that combine multiple renewable energy sources, such as solar power and hydro power, are gaining popularity as a means of meeting the growing energy demands while minimising environmental impacts, but also as an opportunity of connecting solar power plants to the grid in areas where this might not be possible unless large investments are made. This master thesis aims to evaluate the feasibility and economic viability of integrating solar panels with an existing grid connection point at a hydro power plant, along with the introduction of an energy storage solution using a hydro power plant reservoir.
