  1. 1. Risk Implications of Small Modular Nuclear Reactor Implementations: the Case of the Nordics

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och industriell teknik

    Författare :Denis Mijolović; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Small Modular Nuclear Reactors; Nuclear Energy; Energy Policy; Energy Transition; Risk Management; Scandinavian Energy Strategy;

    Sammanfattning : Climate change is no novelty – we witness its disastrous impact more and more by each day. Although we already started envisaging a future where the vitality of our societies is derived not from conventional fossil fuels, but from a sophisticated, clean, and steadfast energy source – the latest benchmarks tracked by leading global energy agencies show grim performance, thereby calling for an intervention.

  2. 2. Swedish Offshore Wind : Modelling development pathways to commercial viability

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Författare :Siddharth Iyer; [2023]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Offshore wind will play an important role in Sweden’s fossil-free energy future. Although Sweden has many offshore wind farms in the planning and approval stages, few projects have been built, and little public research on which offshore wind areas and individual farms are most economically viable.

  3. 3. Terminating Apartheid's Atomic Bomb

    Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Statsvetenskapliga institutionen

    Författare :Oskar Hedman; [2023]
    Nyckelord :South Africa; Nuclear Disarmament; Tripart Accord; Frederik de Klerk; Nuclear Non-proliferation Treaty; Law and Political Science;

    Sammanfattning : South Africa secretly produced six and a half nuclear weapons from 1978-1989 before undertaking a complete nuclear disarmament between 1989-1991; it is the only instance in history of when a state has discarded an indigenously developed nuclear arsenal and presents a unique case for studying the nuclear decision-making of states. This thesis is a theory-testing case study where I, by conducting a qualitative content analysis of previous research on South Africa’s nuclear rollback, examine how well Scott D Sagan’s nuclear policy model can explain the nuclear disarmament of South Africa.

  5. 5. Forecasting Technological Diffusion through Analogies: Examining Historical Technologies to Assess the Future Growth of Green Hydrogen Electrolysis and Pipeline Network as Climate Mitigation Technologies

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Internationella miljöinstitutet

    Författare :Renz Homer Cerillo; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Technology diffusion; green hydrogen; electrolyze; pipeline; feasibility spaces; reference case forecasting; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Green hydrogen is an advantageous clean energy carrier that enables the decarbonization of hard-to-abate sectors and addresses the intermittency of renewables. However, its global production is currently constrained by inadequate infrastructure, high investment risks, and relatively technological infancy. LÄS MER
