  1. 1. Hosting Capacity Methods Considering Complementarity between Solar and Wind Power : A Case Study on a Swedish Regional Grid

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Energisystem

    Author : Emma Andersson; Maja Abrahamsson Bolstad; [2023]
    Keywords : hosting capacity; hosting capacity methods; renewable power generation; power grid; power system analysis; complementarity; solar power; wind power; deterministic method; time series method;

    Abstract : The demand for electrical power is growing due to factors such as population growth, urbanisation, and the transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy sources. To be able to keep up with the changes in electricity demand, the Swedish power grid must connect more renewable power generation, but also  increase its transmission capacity. READ MORE

  2. 2. 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.

  3. 3. Impact of solar-mounted truck on the grid

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för elektroteknik

    Author : Gayathri Radhakrishnan Nair; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Sweden has a climatic goal to reduce the emission of greenhouse gases by 2045. One of the major contributors to carbon dioxide emissions is the transportation sector, out of which the major share lies in the heavy freight sector. READ MORE

  4. 4. Design of a Sustainable Energy System for a Community Center in rural Mozambique : A Minor Field Study in Mozambique

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