1. 1. Energy System Analysis of thermal, hydrogen and battery storage in the energy system of Sweden in 2045

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

   Author : Poornima Sundarrajan; [2023]
   Keywords : VRES; Energy System Model; CEEP; Wind integration; Thermal Energy Storage; Hydrogen Storage; Heat Pumps; Electrolysers; VRES; Energisystemmodell; CEEP; Vindintegration; Värmeenergilagring; Vätgaslagring; Värmepumpar; Elektrolysörer;

   Abstract : Sweden has goals to reach net-zero emissions by 2045. Although electricity sector is almost fossil free, industry & transport still rely on fossil fuels. Ambitious initiatives such as HYBRIT, growth of EV market & expansion of wind power aim to expedite emission reduction. READ MORE

3. 2. Flexible Sector Coupling (FSC) of Electrical and Thermal Sectors via Thermal Energy Storage (TES) : A Case Study on Oskarshamn Energi

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

   Author : Raúl Calvo García; Jose María Marín Arcos; [2023]
   Keywords : Flexible sector coupling FSC ; district heating DH ; thermal energy storage TES ; heat pump HP ; capacity optimization; dispatch optimization; open-access tools; Flexibel sektorkoppling; fjärrvärme; termisk energilagring; värmepump; kapacitetsoptimering; leveransoptimering; verktyg med öppen tillgång;

   Abstract : The integration of distributed energy sources and systems is of high relevance for the transition towards a more sustainable energy system. Taking into consideration the  amount of emissions produced by the heating sector, which account for at least half of the energy demand in buildings, district heating systems have the potential to play a key role in the transition, by enabling the integration of various energy sources and provide flexible energy services to the grid.

4. 3. Heat atlas of Gotland : A GIS-based support tool for modelling the heat sector.

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

   Author : Hugo Segerström; [2023]
   Keywords : Heat atlas; GIS; heat sector; energy system; energy system modelling; TIMES; QGIS; district heating; spatial data; energy transition; GIS; energisystems modellering; TIMES; värmesektorn; fjärrvärme; värmeatlas; QGIS; geografisk data; energisystem;

   Abstract : With sharp climate goals to be climate neutral by 2045, Sweden needs to rapidly change the present energy system. The Swedish government has assigned Gotland as a pilot area for the energy transition, due to its geographical constrains as an island, and because of the major structural changes planned for Gotland’s energy supply and industrial establishment.
