1. 1. Energy efficiency and fiscal incentives : A stochastic frontier analysis of Swedish manufacturing sectors 2008-2020

   University essay from Umeå universitet/Nationalekonomi

   Author : William Blombäck; [2024]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : This thesis is a case study of the Swedish manufacturing industry in which I measure how efficiently each sector uses energy (fuel and electricity) as input goods in their production processes, and how significant the impact of Sweden’s energy tax is in regard to energy efficiency. The purpose of this is to analyze energy security and preparedness for short-term demand shocks for electricity, as many ‘mega-investments’ of industrial nature are being planned in Sweden – which are predicted to require the installed capacity of Sweden’s electricity production to almost double by 2045.

3. 2. Modeling of Foreign Exchange Swap Distributions : A statistical evaluation of two stochastic models

   University essay from Linköpings universitet/Produktionsekonomi

   Author : Ludvig Ehrenpreis; Eriksson Oscar; [2023]
   Keywords : term structure measurement; optimization; foreign exchange swaps; interest rates; FX; model comparison; FX swap models;

   Abstract : The global foreign exchange (FX) market is one of the world's largest financial markets and a significant part of this market concerns the trading of FX swaps. For banks and other financial institutions, it is of great interest to model these swaps as accurately as possible, as this could improve their risk management. READ MORE

4. 3. Towards a Stochastic Operation of Switzerland’s Power Grid

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

   Author : Alban Maury; [2023]
   Keywords : Monte-Carlo simulations; probabilistic forecasting; copula theory; power flow analysis; Monte Carlo-simuleringar; probabilistiska prognoser; kopulateori; analys av energiflöden;

   Abstract : As Europe’s power production becomes increasingly reliant on intermittent renewable energy sources, uncertainties are likely to arise in power generation plans. Similarly, with the growing prevalence of electric vehicles, electric demand is also becoming more uncertain. READ MORE

5. 4. Meeting electricity demand during a crisis : Assessing the feasibility of battery storage as a path for municipalities to increase electricity resilience

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och industriell teknik

   Keywords : Battery storage; Electricity demand; Crisis preparedness; Socio-technical analysis; Electricity resilience; Household responsibility; Municipal responsibility; Knivsta kommun;

   Abstract : This bachelor thesis aims to investigate household electricity supply and demand during a crisis. Both quantitative and qualitative aspects of crisis preparedness and household electricity demand are considered. READ MORE

6. 5. Optimal Control of An Energy Storage System Providing Fast Charging and Ancillary Services

   University essay from KTH/Optimeringslära och systemteori

   Author : Max Völcker; Hugo Rolff; [2023]
   Keywords : Optimal Control; Model Predictive Control; Dynamic Programming; State-Space Representation; Monte Carlo Simulation; Frequency Regulation; Fast Charging; Energy Storage Systems; Net Present Value; Optimal styrteori; Modell-prediktiv reglering; Dynamisk programmering; Frekvensreglering; Snabbladdning; Energilager; Nuvärde;

   Abstract : In this thesis, we explore the potential of financing a fast charging system with energy storage by delivering ancillary services from the energy storage in an optimal way. Specifically, a system delivering frequency regulation services FCR-D Up and FCR-D Down in combination with energy arbitrage trading is considered. READ MORE
