  1. 26. Unlocking the Potential of Solar-Hydro Hybrid Solutions: Feasibility and Economic Analysis

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Industriell elektroteknik och automation

    Author : Måns Rosberg; [2023]
    Keywords : Hydropower; Solarpower; Hybrid power production; Solar-hydro hybrid power; Reservoir storage; Energy storage; Pumped hydro power; Floating PV; PV; Photovoltaics; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Hybrid solutions that combine multiple renewable energy sources, such as solar power and hydro power, are gaining popularity as a means of meeting the growing energy demands while minimising environmental impacts, but also as an opportunity of connecting solar power plants to the grid in areas where this might not be possible unless large investments are made. This master thesis aims to evaluate the feasibility and economic viability of integrating solar panels with an existing grid connection point at a hydro power plant, along with the introduction of an energy storage solution using a hydro power plant reservoir.

  2. 27. Facilitating locations of green energy on land. What can make it successful? - A case study of the Energy Park Veddum Kær

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för kulturgeografi och ekonomisk geografi

    Author : Karl Felix Flyvbjerg Poulsen; [2023]
    Keywords : green energy transformation; Wind turbines; solar panels; case study; path-dependance; successful location; Social Sciences;

    Abstract : This paper investigates what can promote green energy projects on land which consist of solar and wind power. The research is done with an economic geographic framework of path-development. A paradigmatic case study is conducted with scientific semi-structured interviews and short “pop-up interviews” which validated the in-depth interviews. READ MORE

  3. 28. Optimization of an energy system in rural Thailand

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

    Author : Axel Lund; Mattias Malmberg; [2023]
    Keywords : Rural energy; Thailand; Microgrid; Biomass; Solar PV; Sustainable development goals; Minor field study; stand-alone; HOMER pro; Landsbyggdens energi; Thailand; Microgrid; Biomassa; Solceller; Hållbara utvecklingsmål; Minor field study; fristående energi system; HOMER pro;

    Abstract : By 2020, Thailand ensured 100% electricity access to its 72 million inhabitants. This was partly done by promoting off-grid energy systems in rural areas instead of using costly grid extensions. READ MORE

  4. 29. Redox Materials in Hydrogen Production : Investigation of state-of-the-art redox materials in thermochemical cycles for hydrogen production via solar energy

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

    Author : Saga Berneryd; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This bachelor thesis work has investigated different redox materials in 2-step thermochemical water splitting processes for solar-driven hydrogen production. Materials have been mapped out by their results from experimental activity and by the conditions the tests were conducted in. READ MORE
