  2. 21. Optimisation of Local and National Energy Systems : Development and Use of the MODEST Model

    Author : Dag Henning; Carl-Johan Fogelholm; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : Energy may be supplied by a multitude of components. Computer simulation helps in finding a beneficial system design. The energy-system optimisation model MODEST has been developed, and it has been applied to municipal, regional, and national energy systems. READ MORE

  4. 22. Design Beyond Interventions – Supporting Less Energy-reliant Activities in the Everyday

    Author : Anneli Selvefors; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Activities; Energy use; Enabling preconditions; Design for Sustainability; Everyday life; Energy conservation;

    Abstract : This thesis addresses challenges and opportunities for product design to contribute to domestic energy conservation. The overall aim of the thesis is that of increasing the understanding of people’s energy use and their use of energy-reliant artefacts in the everyday in order to propose ways of supporting energy conservation through design.
