1. Flexible Sector Coupling (FSC) of Electrical and Thermal Sectors via Thermal Energy Storage (TES) : A Case Study on Oskarshamn Energi
Master-uppsats, KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)Sammanfattning : The integration of distributed energy sources and systems is of high relevance for the transition towards a more sustainable energy system. Taking into consideration the amount of emissions produced by the heating sector, which account for at least half of the energy demand in buildings, district heating systems have the potential to play a key role in the transition, by enabling the integration of various energy sources and provide flexible energy services to the grid.

3. Usage of Natural Gas in Modern Steel-making : A Financial and Environmental Evaluation of Available Steel-making Technology in Sweden
Kandidat-uppsats, KTH/MaterialvetenskapSammanfattning : A method of producing steel that is not used in Sweden today is direct reduction using natural gas, a method which could has enormous potential in the future of steelmaking. Historically, steelmaking prioritized productivity and profitability. LÄS MER
4. Venturing into Heavy Industry
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Internationella miljöinstitutetSammanfattning : Venture capital (VC) plays a vital role in supporting the development of emerging startup innovation, including cleaner technologies better known as cleantech. The application of VC is, however, distributed unevenly across sectors of the economy, often overlooking difficult to innovate areas such as the industrial sectors. LÄS MER
5. Techno-Economic Analysis of an Innovative Purely Solar Driven Combined Cycle System based on Packed Bed TES Technology
Master-uppsats, KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)Sammanfattning : With increasing awareness of environmental issues and worldwide requirements for sustainable development, renewable energy technologies with lower environmental impact, especially those having abundant resources like wind and solar energy, attract more attention. Concentrating Solar Power (CSP) is one of the most promising solar energy technologies. LÄS MER
