  4. 23. Pumped-Storage Hydroelectricity for a Sustainable Electricity Transition

    University essay from KTH/Numerisk analys, NA

    Author : Teodor Elmfeldt; [2023]
    Keywords : Pumped-storage hydroelectricity; Electric grid; Computational Mathematics; Juktan Power Station; Applied mathematics; Power system; Sustainability; Pumpkraft; Elnät; Beräkningsmatematik; Juktan Kraftverk; Tillämpad mate- matik; Elkraftteknik; Hållbarhet;

    Abstract : This master thesis explores the application of Pumped-Storage Hydroelectricity (PSH) within an electricity market characterised by a substantial share of renewable and intermittent electricity production. The purpose of PSH is to enhance the alignment of supply with demand by storing energy at electricity surplus and releasing it during shortage. READ MORE

  5. 24. Study on feasibility of small-scale pumped hydro storage- A case study in Sweden

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

    Author : Prashant Niroula; [2023]
    Keywords : energy storage; pumped hydropower; electricity market; investment; new technologies; feasibility; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The European union has been aggressively pushing forward with policies favoring renewable sources of energy. As a result, the share of intermittent renewables in the European power grid is rising and is expected to grow even more in the coming decade. The Swedish energy agency also forecast huge growth in wind power. READ MORE

  6. 25. Powering up profits - Integrating Power Purchase Agreements and Battery Systems for Nordic Power Futures

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

    Author : William Thorwaldson; Ellen Jinglöv; [2023]
    Keywords : Power Purchase Agreements; Financial Power Trading; Battery Energy Storage Systems; Power Futures; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This master’s thesis aims to assess the profitability and the factors impacting the profitability of entering a short position in financial derivative contracts on the Nordic power market while procuring electricity through a pay-as-produced power purchase contract and on the day-ahead (DA) market, simultaneously the strategy utilizes a battery storage system to mitigate the effects of price spikes. The research adopted a mixed-method approach by combining quantitative analysis with qualitative findings. READ MORE
