  1. 1. Decentralizing electricity generation in Cuba : Implementation of a microgrid in the sugar mil lCarlos Baliño

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

    Författare :Aylin Berber; Cornelia Eriksson; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Microgrid; renewable energy; bagasse; self-sufficiency; Microgrid; förnybar energi; bagass; självförsörjande;

    Sammanfattning : Cuba has a long history of different dependencies and is a country facing many energy challenges, and therefore seeks to diversify its energy sources and reduce its reliance on fossil fuels. The purpose of this degree project is therefore to conceptualize a microgrid based on renewable energy sources for local energy sustainability at the lowest cost possible. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Microgrid in George Washington, Cuba

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

    Författare :Mimmi Fröjdh; Sofia Sjöberg; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Cuba; microgrid; energy systems modelling; renewable energy; optimization; Kuba; microgrid; energisystemmodellering; förnybar energi; optimering;

    Sammanfattning : Cuba has vast natural resources for domestic renewable energy generation, but their energy mix is heavily dominated by fossil fuels. This contributes to a high dependence on expensive oil imports and has led to significant generation shortfalls, which in turn has resulted in extensive power outages and serious fuel crises.

  4. 3. Feasibility analysis of upgrading the cogeneration unit of George Washington sugar mill in Cuba

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

    Författare :Joakim Ginste; Sascha Partanen; [2020]
    Nyckelord :CEST; cogeneration; levelized cost of energy; net present value; sugar mill; CEST; kraftvärmeverk; energiproduktionskostnad; nettonuvärde; sockerbruk;

    Sammanfattning : Cuba’s government has set a goal to generate 24 percent of the country’s electricity from renewable sources by 2030. The country’s many sugar mills have been identified as key contributors to reach this goal as their cogeneration units have the potential to significantly increase Cuba’s electricity production from biomass by upgrading them to bioelectric plants.

  5. 4. Microwave Heat Treatment of Black Liquor for the Degradation of Hemicellulose

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

    Författare :Maja Rydgård; [2020]
    Nyckelord :lignin; biofuel; black liquor; heat treatment; microwave heating; chemical engineering; kemiteknik; Technology and Engineering; Chemistry;

    Sammanfattning : The largest use of fossil petroleum is the production of fuels. Hence, finding sustainable alter-natives is an important step to reduce the emissions of greenhouse gases. One such alternative is to produce fuel from biomass, such as waste products from agriculture and the forest indus-try. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Thermodynamic and Economic Evaluation of Hybridization Biomass-solar for a Cogeneration Power Plant in a Cuban Sugar Mill, George Washington

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

    Författare :Silja Lehtinen; [2019]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : This study evaluates the thermodynamic and economic performance of hybridization of biomass-solar for a cogeneration power plant in a Cuban sugar mill, George Washington. The evaluation is performed by varying the parameters of the thermal power block and considering scenarios with 1) bagasse and marabú, 2) bagasse and solar field, and 3) bagasse, marabú and solar field as heat sources for the cogeneration cycle.
