2. 1. Solar heat pump systems for heating applications : Analysis of system performance and possible solutions for improving system performance

   Author : Stefano Poppi; Per Lundqvist; Chris Bales; Kai Siren; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Solar heat pump systems; techno-economics; solar thermal; system improvements; cost-effectiveness; Energiteknik; Energy Technology; MacSheep;

   Abstract : Solar heat pump systems (SHPs) are systems that combine solar energy and heat pumps. SHPs have been investigated for several decades and have been proven to increase the share of renewable energy and reduce electric energy demand in residential heating applications. READ MORE

4. 2. Optical Efficiency of Low-Concentrating Solar Energy Systems with Parabolic Reflectors

   Author : Maria Brogren; Arne Roos; Björn Karlsson; Andreas Häberle; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Engineering physics; Photovoltaic cells; Photovoltaic-thermal systems; Parabolic reflectors; Optical properties; Reflector materials; Optical efficiency; Accelerated ageing; Outdoor ageing; Building-integrated photovoltaics; Teknisk fysik; Engineering physics; Teknisk fysik;

   Abstract : Solar electricity is a promising energy technology for the future, and by using reflectors for concentrating solar radiation onto photovoltaic cells, the cost per produced kWh can be significantly reduced. The optical efficiency of a concentrating system determines the fraction of the incident energy that is transferred to the cells and depends on the optical properties of the system components.

5. 3. The arrival of the tipping point of solar photovoltaic technology

   Author : Ying Yang; Jinyue Yan; Reinhard Madlener; Mälardalens högskola; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; industriell ekonomi och organisation; Industrial Economics and Organisations;

   Abstract : Solar photovoltaic (PV) technology has become well-established for addressing both greenhouse gas emission reductions and regional air pollution. Rapid developments within the solar PV sector are still facing various technical barriers, economic impediments, and institutional barriers. READ MORE

6. 4. PV water pumping systems for grassland and farmland conservation

   Author : Pietro Elia Campana; Jinyue Yan; Bengt Perers; Mälardalens högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energy- and Environmental Engineering; energi- och miljöteknik;

   Abstract : Grassland degradation is considered as one of the worst environmental and economic problems in China because of the negative impacts on water and food security. The application of the photovoltaic water pumping (PVWP) technology for irrigation is an innovative and sustainable solution to curb the progress of grassland desertification and to promote the conservation of farmland in remote areas.
