  1. 1. A study of photovoltaics and of combining solar power with an existing wind power plant

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Industriell elektroteknik och automation

    Author : Daniel Mittel; Max Wither; [2023]
    Keywords : photovoltaics; wind power; grid connection; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : In this paper, the viability of integrating solar power with an already running wind power plant is examined. The study, conducted in cooperation with Eolus, takes place in Anneberg, Sweden, home to three wind turbines with a combined capacity of 10.8 MW. READ MORE

  2. 2. Tracking Optimization in Agrivoltaic Systems : A Comparative Study for Apple Orchards

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

    Author : Maddalena Bruno; [2023]
    Keywords : Agrivoltaics; Optimization; Light sharing; Apple Orchards; Lantbruk; Optimering; Ljusdelning; Äppelodlingar;

    Abstract : Agrivoltaic (APV) systems, based on the co-location of solar panels and crops, are an innovative solution to land-use conflicts that often arise between agriculture and energy production. Their optimal functioning starts with efficient management and sharing of light between solar panels and underlying plants. READ MORE

  3. 3. Design and Control of Bidirectional Converters for DC Microgrids

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

    Author : Gustav Eckerbom; Villiam Petermann; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This study aims to summarize the design of two common types of bidirectional DC-DC convertersfound in microgrids, as well as use two distinct control methods for each converter and validate theirperformance. Microgrids are decentralized, small-scale power systems that can operateindependently of the main power grid and are an important solution in order to integrate moreintermittent energy sources, such as solar and wind power, into the energy mix.

    Abstract : With the rise in the number of Internet of Things (IoT) applications, there is also an increase in the number of batteries being used to power these connected devices. The lifespan of IoT devices is usually limited by how long their batteries last. READ MORE

  5. 5. Design and Development of a Data Acquisition and Communication System for Point Absorber Tracking

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för elektroteknik

    Author : Balakrishnan Kannan; [2021]
    Keywords : Data Acquisition System; Raspberry Pi; Controller; Processor; Wave buoy; Lysekil; wave energy; measurements; IMU; GPS; Strain gauge; force; Solar energy; Battery; communication; 4G; internet; Remote tracking; Shell; Python;

    Abstract : The recent trend in generating energy from the waves has led to several advancements in the methods and the various research is conducted across the world, to study the behaviour of point absorbers on the waves. The point absorbers such as wave buoys are designed to move according to the waves and the generator that is mechanically coupled with the buoys, generate electricity. READ MORE
