  1. 1. Battery storage implementation in Sweden and sizing software development

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

    Author : Santiago Moreano Rojas; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Due to the rampant growth of the penetration of renewables into the electrical grids across the world, more challenges appear in the way to assure the optimal operation of the energy system. More particularly, in the case of Sweden, the nuclear power decommissioning tendency and the 100% renewable energy target by 2040, set two strong additional motivations for the rise of issues regarding variability, uncertainty, stability, balancing and quality in the grid.
