  2. 1. Urban building energy modeling : A systematic evaluation of modeling and simulation approaches

    Author : Fatemeh Johari; Joakim Widén; Joakim Munkhammar; Olga Kordas; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Urban building energy modeling; Urban energy Planning; Bottom-up energy modeling; Thermal zoning; Model complexity;

    Abstract : Urban energy system planning can play a pivotal role in the transition of urban areas towards energy efficiency and carbon neutrality. With the building sector being one of the main components of the urban energy system, there is a great opportunity for improving energy efficiency in cities if the spatio-temporal patterns of energy use in the building sector are accurately identified.

  4. 2. Bottom-Up Modeling of Building Stock Dynamics - Investigating the Effect of Policy and Decisions on the Distribution of Energy and Climate Impacts in Building Stocks over Time

    Author : Claudio Nägeli; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; synthetic building stock; agent-based modeling; Building stock modeling; renewable energy; building stock dynamics; energy efficiency; GHG emissions;

    Abstract : In Europe, residential and commercial buildings are directly and indirectly responsible for approximately 30–40% of the overall energy demand and emitted greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. A large share of these buildings was erected before minimum energy-efficiency standards were implemented and are therefore not energy- or carbon-efficient. READ MORE

  5. 3. New opportunities provided by the Swedish electricity meter reform

    Author : Fredrik Wallin; Erik Dahlquist; Eva Thorin; Peter Roots; David Natusch; Mälardalens högskola; []
    Keywords : automatic meter reading AMR ; advanced metering infrastructure AMI ; peak load; consumption patterns; visualize; consumption feed-back; added values; demand-based; tariffs; bottom-up modeling; web-based applications; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP; Energy- and Environmental Engineering; energi- och miljöteknik;

    Abstract : The reduction of the impact of energy consumption is a priority issue and a major challenge that concerns every country in the world. This is a complex task that needs to be tackled from several angles in the search for areas where optimizations and savings can be made. READ MORE

  6. 4. Modeling and Simulation of Electricity Consumption Profiles in the Northern European Building Stock

    Author : Claes Sandels; Lars Nordström; Palensky Peter; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Demand Response; Flexible loads; Building stock energy-use; Bottom-up simulation models; Load profiles; Non-homogeneous Markov-chains; End-user behavior; Lumped capacitance models; HVAC system control; Smart Grid.; Efterfrågeflexibilitet; Flexibla laster; Energianvändning i byggnadsstocken; Botten-upp-simuleringsmodeller; Elförbrukningsprofiler; Icke-homogena Markovkedjor; Slutanvändarbeteenden; Värmedynamikmodellering; Styrning av HVAC-laster; Smarta elnät.;

    Abstract : The electric power systems are currently being transformed through the integration of intermittent renewable energy resources and new types of electric loads. These developments run the risk of increasing mismatches between electricity supply and demand, and may cause non-favorable utilization rates of some power system components. READ MORE

  7. 5. Dynamics of aluminum use in the global passenger car system: Challenges and solutions of recycling and material substitution

    Author : Roja Modaresi; Norges teknisk-naturvitenskapelige universitet (NTNU); []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : This thesis analyzes the relationship between the design of vehicles, end-of-life vehicle (ELV) management, and global material production using aluminum as an example. Vehicle manufacturing, material industries and ELV management face different challenges. READ MORE
