  1. 6. Analysis of Prerequisites for Connection of a Large-Scale Photovoltaic System to the Electric Power Grid

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

    Author : Fanny Lilja; [2021]
    Keywords : solar energy; large-scale photovoltaic system; PV; Swedish power system; power output fluctuations; voltage quality; voltage variations; reactive power compensation; PSS E; solenergi; storskalig solcellsanläggning; PV; Sveriges kraftsystem; effekförändringar; spänningskvalitet; spänningsvariationer; reaktiv effektkompensering; PSS E;

    Abstract : The deployment of large-scale photovoltaic (PV) systems is rising in the Swedish power system, both in quantity and in system size. However, the intermittent characteristics of the PV production raises questions concerning the stability in the electric power grid, and power output fluctuations from the PV systems can lead to voltage quality issues.

  3. 7. Analysis of European post-consumer textile waste for automated sorting

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Maria Marin Perez; [2021]
    Keywords : Sustainable development; fibre-to-fibre recycling; post-consumer textile; automated textile sorting; SIPTex.;

    Abstract : The textile industry is linked to several major environmental problems, as a consequence there is an interest at European level to reduce the impact of the industry. In Sweden there are several initiatives to increase the circularity of textile for example by promoting fibre-to-fibre textile recycling. READ MORE

  4. 8. Development of a GIS-based multiprocessing modelling approach for assessing the wind and solar potential in Mongolia

    University essay from KTH/Energi och klimatstudier, ECS

    Author : Alexander Harrucksteiner; [2020]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Despite the vast wind and solar energy potential, Mongolia is still highly depended on coal-fired electricity generation. At the same time, the pressure on Governments is increased due to the urgency to fight climate change. READ MORE

  5. 9. The carbon footprint caused by the oversizing of building service systems : A case study of an NHS Hospital

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Maria Hein; [2020]
    Keywords : Design; dimensioning; heating; cooling; boiler; chiller; pump; energy performance; environmental impact; mitigation strategy;

    Abstract : Energy usage in buildings is a main contributor to CO2 emissions and in order for the EU to reach the 2050 goal of carbon-neutrality, there is a great need to improve the energy efficiency in buildings, particularly commercial buildings that often are substantially overdesigned. Excess margins in the design process of building services result in an oversizing of these systems which has great environmental impacts, divided up as the operational and embodied carbon footprints.

  6. 10. An armored truck cab design : Case study: investigation of selected steel grades

    University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

    Author : Filippo Pellegrini; [2020]
    Keywords : Ballistic steel; single and double layer protection; truck cab; dynamic softening; Ballistiskt stål; enkel- och dubbelskiktsskydd; konstruktion av lastbilshytt; dynamisk mjukning;

    Abstract : This study aimed at defining useful guidelines for the design of an armored truck cab. Particularly, the quality and performance of ballistic steel were defined, considering not too high demanding requirements. Two steel grades, corresponding to hardness of 500 HB and 600 HB, and three different suppliers were selected. READ MORE
