    Author : Erik Klint; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; interdisciplinary; contemporary; consumer psychology; laundry; behavioural change; sharing;

    Abstract : Today’s washing appliances are much more efficient than those of a decade ago, yet the environmental benefits of this efficiency are counteracted by changes in consumer behaviour. This thesis presents two alternative ways to limit emissions from domestic laundering, as well as to better understand consumer behaviour related to the practice of keeping clothes clean. READ MORE

  5. 3. Optimisation and Incentive Mechanisms for Robust Generation Dispatch and Capacity Investment in Electricity Markets

    Author : Lamia Varawala; György Dán; Mohammad Reza Hesamzadeh; José Manuel Arroyo; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Optimal power flow; Look-ahead; $N-k$ contingency criterion; Renewable energy; Environmental externalities; Electricity generation capacity; Strategic behaviour; Incentives;

    Abstract : Power systems constitute a large-scale critical infrastructure and therefore, it is crucial that their operation be robust to deviations from normal functioning of its independent components. Furthermore, due to their large size, any inefficiencies in electricity market design can be very costly and therefore, must be optimised. READ MORE
