    Sammanfattning : Water is essential to life, but it is becoming inadequate, even in Europe. In central, western, and a few parts of northern and northeastern Europe, water availability is facing challenges due to the impacts of climate change. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Optimization of a large scale solar installation through virtual storage : Profitability of using the refrigeration system in a grocery store as energy storage

    Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå,

    Författare :Erik Larsson; Jesper Sundin; [2019]
    Nyckelord :PV; solar power; virtual storage;

    Sammanfattning : In order to fulfil the goals set by EU and in the Swedish energy agreement an increased share of renewable electricity production, like wind and solar power, is necessary. Due to current legislations photovoltaic (PV) installations are usually limited to the 255 kWp energy taxation rule, or to fit the consumption profile of the building. LÄS MER

  4. 3. The impacts of global warming and diet change on the virtual water consumption:  Estimating the present and future invisible virtual water resource use in East Africa

    Master-uppsats, Stockholms universitet/Stockholm Resilience Centre

    Sammanfattning : The production of food is the biggest water consumer and it is required to meet the growing demand of food from a growing population and changing diets. Water can be dislocated indirectly in its hidden virtual form in traded food products as the water that is needed to produce the product locally. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Vattenfotavtryck för olika proteinkällor : En jämförelsestudie av animaliska och vegetabiliska vattenfotavtryck

    Kandidat-uppsats, KTH/Industriell ekologi

    Författare :Ted Forslund; Sandra Gustafsson; [2016]

    Sammanfattning : Vår konsumtion av vatten står i nära relation till vad vi äter. Virtuellt vatten är den mängd vatten som använts för att skapa en vara eller en tjänst. För att beräkna den påverkan som processens alla ingående delar ger ur vattensynpunkt används metoden Water Footprint, vattenfotavtryck. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Global Systems, Local Impacts: A Spatially-Explicit Water Footprint and Virtual Trade Assessment of Brazilian Soy Production

    Master-uppsats, Linköpings universitet/Tema Miljöförändring; Linköpings universitet/Filosofiska fakulteten

    Författare :Rafaela Flach; [2015]
    Nyckelord :Water Footprint; Water Stress; Brazil; Soy; International Trade;

    Sammanfattning : Global trade and increasing food demand are important drivers of impacts in the water system across scales. This study coupled a spatially-explicit physical account of trade between Brazilian municipalities with a water footprint accounting model, in order to analyse water footprints of Brazilian soy produced for domestic and international consumption, and assess their relevance in the context of water scarcity and competing demands for water resources.
