  2. 21. Energy efficiency strategies for residential buildings in a subarctic climate: Impacts on energy use and indoor thermal climate

    Author : Shimantika Bhattacharjee; Lars Stehn; Sofia Lidelöw; Thomas Olofsson; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Byggproduktion och teknik; Construction Management and Building Technology;

    Abstract : Adopting energy efficiency strategies in residential buildings are beneficial as these not only improve the energy performance but also improves the indoor thermal climate and minimizes the greenhouse gas emissions. There exist numerous studies on energy efficiency strategies and their influence on indoor thermal climate in residential buildings in cold climates. READ MORE

  4. 22. Spatio-temporal forecasting and optimization for integration of solar energy in urban energy systems

    Author : Dennis van der Meer; Joakim Widén; Pierre Pinson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; forecasting; photovoltaic; electricity use; net load; probabilistic; multivariate; optimization; Engineering Science with specialization in Civil Engineering and Built Environment; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot byggteknik och byggd miljö;

    Abstract : The increasing penetration of non-dispatchable renewable energy sources such as photovoltaic (PV) systems in the electricity generating mix poses challenges to the operational performance of the power system. On the demand side, advanced schemes that increase the flexibility of customer loads and the increase in electrification are set to noticeably alter electricity demand. READ MORE
