  1. 1. Decentralizing electricity generation in Cuba : Implementation of a microgrid in the sugar mil lCarlos Baliño

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

    Author : Aylin Berber; Cornelia Eriksson; [2023]
    Keywords : Microgrid; renewable energy; bagasse; self-sufficiency; Microgrid; förnybar energi; bagass; självförsörjande;

    Abstract : Cuba has a long history of different dependencies and is a country facing many energy challenges, and therefore seeks to diversify its energy sources and reduce its reliance on fossil fuels. The purpose of this degree project is therefore to conceptualize a microgrid based on renewable energy sources for local energy sustainability at the lowest cost possible. READ MORE

  2. 2. Major Component Replacement on Floating Wind Turbines

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

    Author : Kilian Galle; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Among the challenges that floating offshore wind (FOW) energy faces today, operation and maintenanc ecosts, and especially major component replacements (MCR), are an important cost reduction lever. MCRs are defined as any failure on a wind turbine requiring the change of an entire main component of the turbine, such as a gearbox, generator, blade, nacelle, etc. READ MORE

  3. 3. Assessing Offshore Wind System Integration: Comparative Analysis of Floating Photovoltaics, Oscillating Surge Wave Converters, and Battery Energy Storage Systems

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

    Author : Wilhelm Niilekselä; Douglas Hansson; [2023]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The high penetration of wind power is increasing the intermittency and power variability into the existing power grid. This is forcing industries to look for optimal configurations in order to improve their systems performance and minimize these effects from the power production method. READ MORE

  4. 4. Potential and challenges of Battery Energy Storage(BESS) : The case of Poland

    University essay from KTH/Kraft- och värmeteknologi

    Author : Marcin Ziółkowski; [2023]
