  1. 1. Deep reinforcement learning for automated building climate control

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för datavetenskap

    Author : Erik Snällfot; Martin Hörnberg; [2024]
    Keywords : Machine Learning; Reinforcement Learning; Deep Learning; Deep Reinforcement Learning; Building Control; Control System;

    Abstract : The building sector is the single largest contributor to greenhouse gas emissions, making it a natural focal point for reducing energy consumption. More efficient use of energy is also becoming increasingly important for property managers as global energy prices are skyrocketing. READ MORE

  3. 2. High-Temperature Thermal Energy Storage for Innovative Hybrid CSP/PV Plants : A Comprehensive Design Optimization

    University essay from KTH/Energiteknik

    Author : Lorenzo Centonze; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : By means of a literature review, critical parameters in the context of thermal energy storage systems, particularly packed bed thermal energy storage systems are identified. The goals of this thesis project are to come up with an optimized design for a PBSTES and to evaluate the thermal performance of alternative storage materials derived from byproducts of industrial processes and natural rocks in order to reduce the environmental impact of the designed system.
