11. Using refurbished turbines to provide affordable wind energy: A case study in Africa
Magister-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaperSammanfattning : When a wind farm is repowered, decommissioned turbines are discarded. This creates a stock of wind turbines that can be acquired for a fraction of the original cost, and refurbished. Taking advantage of the reduced price and the ruggedness of first generation wind turbines, new markets for sale of wind energy can be explored. LÄS MER
12. Wind Farm Repowering: A Strategic Management Perspective
Magister-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaperSammanfattning : With an estimated wind turbine service life of 20-25 years, it is evident that in the coming years, an increasing number of wind farm owners will have to make a decision between decommissioning and repowering their wind farms. Even though repowering is underlined with a highly complex decision making process, a review of the literature suggests that it is mainly regarded as an engineering feat with a lack of discussion in the strategic and project management context.

13. Thermo-economic Analysis of Retrofitting an Existing Coal-Fired Power Plant with Solar Heat
Master-uppsats, Högskolan i Gävle/Avdelningen för bygg- energi- och miljöteknikSammanfattning : At a time when global environmental change is posing a growing challenge to the world’s economy and creating uncertainties to livelihood of its inhabitants, Coal thermal power plants are under pressure to meet stringent environmental regulations into achieving worldwide set millennial goals for mitigating the effect of emission gases on the atmosphere. Owing to its abundance, it is unlikely to see the use of coal completely missing from the global energy mix within the next hundred years to come. LÄS MER

15. The German wind energy market and its developers – a study of sourcing models, success factors and challenges
Master-uppsats, KTH/EnergiteknikSammanfattning : Wind power is a fast-growing industry (GWEC, 2013) and already accounts for seven percent of the total electricity consumption in the EU. The largest market in the EU, and the third largest in the world, is Germany, with an installed base of 31 GW onshore. LÄS MER
