  1. 16. Private Equity and Long-Term Investment: Evidence from Sweden

    D-uppsats, Handelshögskolan i Stockholm/Institutionen för finansiell ekonomi

    Författare :Pontus Berg; Isac Öberg; [2020]
    Nyckelord :Private Equity; Leveraged Buyouts; Corporate Investment; Innovation; Financial Constraints;

    Sammanfattning : There is a long-lasting debate on whether private equity (PE) firms invest long-term in portfolio firms, or if their short investment horizon lead to long-term growth being sacrificed to boost short-term performance. In this thesis, we examine three types of long- term investments: changes in asset investments, innovative investments and investments in personnel. LÄS MER

  7. 20. Towards Flexible Power Generation Short-term Optimization of a Combined Cycle Power Plant Integrated with an Inlet Air Conditioning Unit

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Energiteknik

    Författare :Weimar Mantilla Gutierrez; [2019]
    Nyckelord :Combined cycle gas turbine; Power augmentation; Flexibility; Inlet air conditioning; Thermal energy storage; Heat pump; Mixed-integer linear programming MILP; kombikraftverk; kraftförbättring; flexibilitet; inluftsbehandling; termisk energilagring; värmepump; linjär programmering; MILP;

    Sammanfattning : Combined cycle gas turbine power plants (CCGT), as part of the electricity generation fleet, are required to improve their flexibility to help balance the power system under new scenarios with high shares of variable renewable sources. Among the different possibilities to enhance the power plant performance, an inlet air conditioning unit offers the benefit of power augmentation and “minimum environmental load” reduction by controlling the gas turbine intake temperature using cold thermal energy storage and a heat pump.
