    Sammanfattning : Large-scale infrastructure projects are risky ventures, often subjected to poor performance. Time and cost are often escalating beyond estimation while quality and benefits remain unchanged. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Regional Energy Transitions in England: The Governing Role of Combined Authorities in the Decarbonisation of Heating

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Internationella miljöinstitutet

    Författare :Susannah Littlewood; [2021]
    Nyckelord :Decarbonisation of Heating; Regional Energy Transitions; Combined Authorities; Social Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : In order to meet its carbon targets, the UK must address the decarbonisation of the currently fossil-fuel dependent system of heating. Buildings and heat strategy at the national level has been insufficient in combatting this issue, and it is increasingly suggested that more local and regional approaches will be needed to accelerate the transition to low carbon heating.

  5. 4. Analysis of trends in policies and pathways for climate neutrality within the steel industry : A case study of powder metal company Höganäs AB

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Författare :Anna Westerberg; Emma Mörlin; [2021]
    Nyckelord :powder metal; climate neutral; decarbonising; steel industry; IPCC;

    Sammanfattning : To be in line with the Paris Agreement and mitigate average temperature rise to 1.5°C, and to a maximum of 2°C, greenhouse gas emissions will have to be reduced close to zero before mid-century. If these targets are to be reached, rapid and complete decarbonisation of every sector within the global economy is required. LÄS MER

  7. 5. "Who's in charge here?" : - A case study of municipal leadership within energy transitions on the Åland Islands, Finland

    Master-uppsats, Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för tema

    Författare :Anna Häger; [2020]
    Nyckelord :energy island; local leadership; renewable energy transition; small-scale society; sustainable development;

    Sammanfattning : Energy transition (ET) to renewable energy sources (RES) has been identified as a crucial action needed in combating climate change. These societal transitions have barriers which are hard to quantify and thus hard to incorporate in energy modelling scenarios. LÄS MER
