1. Insights Into Wind Profile Characteristics in the Arctic Marine Boundary Layer
Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapsläraSammanfattning : The atmospheric boundary layer in the Arctic is essential for the understanding of climate change and improving regional weather prediction. The aim of this study is to investigate to which degree wind speed profiles retrieved in the Arctic agree with well known wind profile concepts and understand which local impact factors influence the wind speed profile.

2. Offshore Wind Farms in Norway : A Spatial Multi-Criteria Analysis for Optimal Site Location
Master-uppsats, KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknikSammanfattning : Recognizing the imperative transition towards renewable energy sources to combat climate change, this study explores the outlooks for offshore wind power in Norway, a country endowed with extensive coastlines and favourable wind conditions. The thesis sets out to support decision-making processes by synthesizing contemporary research and applying context-specific insights to the southern half of the Norwegian economic zone (NEZ) into a comprehensive Spatial-Multi-criteria Analysis (SMCA).

3. The Impact of Global Warming on Wind Power Potential in the Greater Horn of Africa
Master-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaperSammanfattning : The wind speed variability and wind power potential in the Greater Horn of Africa is analyzed in this study to fill a knowledge gap regarding if wind power can be used more as a source of energy for the region. This is investigated based on reanalysis data from ERA5, observed wind speeds, CORDEX-Africa regional climate models (RCMs) for future projections and a literature review. LÄS MER
4. Unveiling the future: Exploring Sweden’s opportunities to transition to an auction-based system for offshore wind.
Master-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för marina vetenskaperSammanfattning : The energy transition to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and the Russian Federation’s war on Ukraine has incentivised targets of European independence in the energy market. Offshore wind is deemed an important energy source because technological advancements have made the sector cost-efficient while producing more capacity than before. LÄS MER
5. Modelling the chemical recycling of plastic waste via pyrolysis and analysing integration with existing refinery infrastructure
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)Sammanfattning : Current plastic management is unsustainable as large amounts of plastic end up landfilled or in the ocean, necessitating an expansion of waste management infrastructure. Pyrolysis is a viable chemical recycling option, and in this report a pyrolysis model is constructed in Aspen Plus. LÄS MER
