1. Low head pumped hydro storage with contra-rotating pump-turbines
Abstract : The increasing share of electrical energy production by intermittent sources pushes the demand for energy storage. Pumped hydro storage (PHS) has a long history of providing a cost-efficient energy storage solution. However, for PHS to be a viable option, a large head is typically required. READ MORE

2. Increasing the hosting capacity of distributed energy resources using storage and communication
Abstract : The use of electricity from Distributed Energy Resources like wind and solar powerwill impact the performance of the electricity network and this sets a limit to theamount of such renewables that can be connected. Investment in energy storage andcommunication technologies enables more renewables by operating the networkcloser to its limits. READ MORE

3. Numerical modeling of coupled thermo-hydro-mechanical processes in geological porous media
Abstract : Coupled Thermo-Hydro-Mechanical (THM) behavior in geological porous media has been a subject of great interest in many geoengineering disciplines. Many attempts have been made to develop numerical prediction capabilities associated with topics such as the movement of pollutant plumes, gas injection, energy storage, geothermal energy extraction, and safety assessment of repositories for radioactive waste and spent nuclear fuel.

4. Optimization modeling of frequency reserves and inertia in the transition to a climate-neutral electricity system
Abstract : The ongoing transition towards electricity production systems that are dominated by wind and solar power challenge both the traditional strategy for meeting a varying electricity demand and the traditional way of controlling the AC frequency of the electricity grid. This work investigates how frequency reserves (FR) and inertia, as well as inter-hourly variation management interact in the transition to a climate-neutral electricity system. READ MORE

5. Mitigation of Pressure Pulsations in Francis Turbine Draft Tube with a GuideVane System : A Numerical Investigation
Abstract : The use of renewable energy such as water and wind to produce electricity has been proven extremely effective in Sweden. The ability of these renewable resources to produce clean output energy counters the adversities caused by non-renewable resources. READ MORE
