  1. 21. Simulation of decarbonization objectives for the district heating system in the Helsinki metropolitan area

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

    Author : Yijie Su; [2021]
    Keywords : District heating; CO2 emission; Decarbonization goal; Helsinki metropolitan area; EnergyPRO; Fjärrvärme; CO2-utsläpp; Dekarboniseringsmål; Helsingfors storstadsområde; EnergyPRO;

    Abstract : District heating (DH) is of great significance for the Nordic countries due to the high heat demand especially in the winter. In Finland, 40% of heat was generated by fossil fuels in DH system, and DH sector emits 10% of the total emissions. The Finnish government aims to achieve carbon neutrality as the national goal by 2035. READ MORE

  4. 24. Control Design for an Energy-Sharing Module of Next-Generation Thermal Energy System ectogrid™

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för reglerteknik

    Author : Lisa Korsell; Tuva Ydén; [2021]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Today, heat and electricity production are two main sources of greenhouse gas emissions. A big share of the overall energy consumption is used to provide buildings with heating and cooling. Smart-energy solutions of heating and cooling could therefore be a more sustainable solution contributing to the green transition of the energy system. READ MORE

  5. 25. Integration impacts of low temperature sub-networks on existing district heating networks : A Swedish Case Study

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

    Author : TOM ANTLE; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : As the need to reduce CO2 emissions from the heating sector to meet climate targets grows solutions such as the electrification of heating and low temperature district heating are becoming prevalent. To achieve such emissions reductions within significantly decarbonised district heating networks, it is of increasing importance to evaluate the emissions from electricity production, including the hourly and seasonal variation inherent there.
