  2. 2. Cost-effective incentives for local electric utilities and industries in co-operation : modelling of technical measures

    Author : Maria Andersson; Björn Karlsson; Curt Björk; Tomas Kåberger; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energy system; System cost; Electricity market; Co-operation; Demand-side management; Energy efficiency;

    Abstract : In the Swedish electricity system there is a great potential for increasing the cost efficiency of the electricity use. However, today the economic incentives, offered for instance by existing electricity rates, are too weak to improve the use of the system. READ MORE

  3. 3. Developing efficient industrial systems through increased integration : applications in the forest industry

    Author : Anna Wolf; Pål Börjesson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : forest industry; integration; industrial ecology; energy efficiency; co-operation; biofuel; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : The starting point of this work is that it is possible for an industry to increase its product value and simultaneously decrease its use of resources and production of waste material if its material and energy flows are effectively integrated into a larger system. The character and the extent of a company's environmental impact is to a large extent determined in this interaction between companies and other external actors. READ MORE

  4. 4. Regional and Industrial Co-operation in District Heating Systems

    Author : Alemayehu Gebremedhin; Thore Berntsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : A century after the introduction of the first district heating system (DHS) on a commercial basis, the technology has still not become as widespread as it deserves to be. The role of district heating (DH) has meant not only comfort for its users but also less impact on the environment. READ MORE

  5. 5. Energy systems analysis of Swedish pulp and paper industries from a regional cooperation perspective : Case study modeling and optimization

    Author : Sofia Klugman; Bahram Moshfegh; Thore Berntsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Industrial energy system; Optimization; District heating; Energy audit; Co-operation; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : The industrial sector uses about one third of the energy end-use in the world. Since energy use in many cases highly affects both the local and global environment negatively, it is of common interest to increase energy efficiency within industries. READ MORE
