  1. 1. Power System Operation Planning and Wind Power Curtailment : Efficient Methods for Power System Scheduling and Integration Studies of Variable Renewable Energy

    Author : Elis Nycander; Lennart Söder; Mehrdad Ghandari; Robert Eriksson; Germán Morales-España; Benjamin Hobbs; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Variable renewable energy; wind power integration; production cost model; power-based unit commitment; wind power scenarios; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : To reduce carbon dioxide emissions, variable renewable energy (VRE) sources are replacing conventional fossil-based power plants for electricity generation. Due to the variability and uncertainty of weather dependent VRE sources, there can be situations when it is not possible to accommodate all the available VRE production, and VRE sources have to be curtailed.

  2. 2. Applying Industrial Ecology in Urban Planning for the local integration of data centers

    Author : Cristina Ramos Caceres; Adolfo Sotoca; Marcus Sandberg; Cornelia Redeker; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Data centers; Industrial Ecology; Urban Planning; Spatial Planning; Energy Planning; Arkitektur; Architecture;

    Abstract : The data center industry’s rapid development raises questions about how to regulate data center locations and expansion, becoming a matter of high concern regarding Urban Planning. Data center facilities are commonly located and scaled (regarding power and size) responding to business profitability interests steered by the global market. READ MORE

  3. 3. Municipal Energy Planning : Scope and Method Development

    Author : Jenny Stenlund Nilsson Ivner; Olof Hjelm; Lena Neij; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energy planning; energy systems; environmental assessment; decision-making; participation; Other industrial engineering and economics; Övrig industriell teknik och ekonomi;

    Abstract : Swedish municipalities are required to produce a municipal energy plan for their energy supply and use. Whether energy planning is suitable to manage local energy systems, however, is subject to debate. This thesis maps municipal energy planning: the scopes of energy plans and whether goals stated in energy plans are fulfilled. READ MORE

  4. 4. Short- and long-term variability in future electricity systems – Ensuring the flexibility to manage the grid frequency and inter-annual variations

    Author : Jonathan Ullmark; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; inter-annual variability; flexibility; frequency control; battery storage; Electricity systems modelling; capacity expansion planning;

    Abstract : To achieve climate mitigation targets, the net climate impact from electricity generation must be drastically reduced in the near future, and eventually eliminated. The level of generation must also be increased to accommodate the increasing demand as the transport and industry sectors undergo electrification. READ MORE

  5. 5. Production Planning of CHP plants in transition towards energy systems with high share of renewables

    Author : Mahsa Daraei; Eva Thorin; Pietro Elia Campana; Anders Avelin; Louise Ödlund; Mälardalens högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energy- and Environmental Engineering; energi- och miljöteknik;

    Abstract : The global energy system is undergoing a transformative change towards renewable energies. The share of Renewable Energy Sources (RES) and bioenergy in the world’s primary energy use has increased in the recent years. READ MORE
