  2. 6. Energy Services in Sweden - Customer Relations towards Increased Sustainability

    Author : Kerstin Sernhed; Energihushållning; []
    Keywords : demand-side management; district heating; electricity; Customer relations; district-heating marketing strategies; load management; feedback;

    Abstract : Energy use and supply are evident issues to consider for a sustainable development, where the economic, social and environmental aspects are all important. In large grid-bound systems, the supply of energy is usually a rather invisible activity and the contacts between household custo-mers and utilities are sometimes only repre-sented through the energy bill.

  4. 7. From Passive to Active Electric Distribution Networks

    Author : Javier Campillo; Erik Dahlquist; Wu Jianzhong; Mälardalens högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Active distribution networks; smart grids; smart Meters; real-time pricing; demand-side management; electric vehicles; power systems; Energy- and Environmental Engineering; energi- och miljöteknik;

    Abstract : Large penetration of distributed generation from variable renewable energy sources, increased consumption flexibility on the demand side and the electrification of transportation pose great challenges to existing and future electric distribution networks. This thesis studies the roles of several actors involved in electric distribution systems through electricity consumption data analysis and simulation models. READ MORE

  5. 8. Demand Flexibility for the Simultaneous Provision of Multiple Services : Tapping the Potential of Controllable Electric Loads for Frequency Reserves and Energy Arbitrage

    Author : Lars Herre; Lennart Söder; Qiuwei Wu; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; aggregator; chance constrained optimisation; demand response; de-mand response provider; demand side management; frequency reserves; load control; stochastic optimization; aggregator; riskbegränsad optimering; efterfrågestyrning; leverantör av efterfrågesvar; efterfrågeflexibilitet; frekvensreserver; laststyrning; stokastisk optimering.; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : Power systems with increasing shares of renewable energy sources require sufficient flexibility sources. One source of flexibility for future power systems is constituted by flexible electric loads. The concept of demand response captures the utilization of demand side flexibility to provide services to the power system. READ MORE

  6. 9. The roles of transmission and distribution networks in integrating variable renewable electricity generation

    Author : Joel Goop; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; electricity generation; demand-side management; energy systems modelling; power systems; variable renewables;

    Abstract : Emission reduction targets, together with other factors, such as security of supply, are driving the expansion of variable renewable energy sources for electricity generation, mainly solar and wind power. Trading across the transmission grid is an important measure to handle the increased variability and to balance supply with demand. READ MORE

  7. 10. Towards a circular home: Exploring opportunities for design to support households in sustainable resource use

    Author : Sofie Hagejärd; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; design for sustainability; thermal comfort; smart energy systems; social practice theory; circular product design; circular economy; demand-side management;

    Abstract : Our use of natural resources has grown dramatically in recent years, with negative consequences for both the environment and human health. At home, resource use in the form of energy, water, food, and material objects may be related to a wide range of everyday practices as well as changes to, and adaptations of, our home environments.
