1. 21. Energy Usage in Railway Wayside Object Heating : Modeling of melting of Ice, Estimation of heating power requirement in Switch and Renewable energy feasibility for a Railway system

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

   Author : Sidharth Kapoor; [2022]
   Keywords : Melting of Ice; Numerical modeling; Transient conjugate heat transfer; Transient analysis; CFD; Switch heating; Heat pumps in Railways; Issmältning; Numerisk modellering; Transient värmeöverföring; Transientanalys; CFD; Värmepumpar i järnvägar;

   Abstract : Trafikverket operates about 12000 Switches and crossings (SnCs) of which 6800 are equipped with an electrical heating system of 10−30kW power to keep SnCs functional throughout the winters by keeping them free of Snow/Ice. The energy consumption is approximately 200−130GWh/year costing approximately 10−15 million Euros annually. READ MORE

3. 22. Design of the model Community to Electric Vehicle to Community (C2V2C) for increased resilience and network friendliness in photovoltaic energy-sharing building communities

   University essay from Högskolan Dalarna/Institutionen för information och teknik

   Author : Edgar Mauricio Ocampo Alvarez; [2022]
   Keywords : C2V2C; Photovoltaic; Coordinated Control; Electric Vehicle; Electromobility; Power Balance;

   Abstract : Both the solar photovoltaic (PV) installation and electric vehicles (EVs) deployment are increasing significantly in Sweden. With the large-scale integration of PV and EVs, problems such as the voltage deviations and overloading of components can arise, since the existing distribution grids are not designed to host the large shares of new EV loads and the intermittent PV power feed-in.

4. 23. Efficiency Study of Transforming a Conventional Grid to Smart Grid using MATLAB : Outline for upgrading a traditional grid to smart grid in a developing country like Bangladesh

   University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för fysik och elektroteknik (IFE)

   Author : Nazmul Hassan; Hritwik Kishore Dhar; [2022]
   Keywords : Smart grid; Grid upgradation; Communication Standards; FACTS; Bangladesh;

   Abstract : The purpose of this thesis is to explore the importance of Smart Grid and to conduct a full feasibility analysis of its implementation in Bangladesh. A smart grid is an electric power system that improves grid accuracy and effectiveness by reacting to systemic disruptions proactively. READ MORE

5. 24. Development of Typical Load Profiles on residential electricity consumption using attribute data on electric vehicles, heating systems and fuse sizes

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Industriell teknik

   Author : Aikaterini Manousidou; Martina Lundberg; [2022]
   Keywords : Typical Load Profiles; electric vehicles; load curves; smart grid; electrification; Velander formula;

   Abstract : It is time to phase out fossil fuels and invest our efforts in green energy production through a major restructuring of the energy system. At the same time, more people are acquiring electric vehicles (EVs), thus creating a higher demand of electricity, and solar panels, allowing the consumer to also be a micro-producer. READ MORE

6. 25. Combining Smart Energy Storage with a Nordic PV Park : An explorative study of revenue-improving and cost-reducing battery services

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Byggteknik och byggd miljö

   Author : Amanda Bränström; Jonna Söderberg; [2021]
   Keywords : battery storage; energy storage; PV park; primary frequency regulation; energy arbitrage; NPV; VRE; Li-ion; service stacking;

   Abstract : With global climate change as the main driver, there is an increase towards including more variable renewable energy (VRE) sources in the electricity mix. Energy production from utilizing the photovoltaic effect, or PV power, is increasing rapidly and is visioned to cover 5 – 10 % of Sweden’s electricity demand in 2040. READ MORE
