  1. 1. Solar PV in prosumer energy systems : A techno-economic analysis on sizing, integration, and risk

    Author : Nelson Sommerfeldt; Hatef Madani Larijani; Björn Palm; Michel Haller; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Electrify everything; building energy systems; energy systems analysis; solar heat pump; investment analysis; Monte Carlo analysis; PVT; solar hybrid; Electrify everything; byggnadsenergisystem; energisystemanalys; solvärmepump; investeringsanalys; Monte Carlo analys; PVT; solhybrid; Energy Technology; Energiteknik; Planering och beslutsanalys; Planning and Decision Analysis;

    Abstract : In the transition towards a sustainable energy system, building mounted solar photovoltaics (PV) have unique benefits; they require no additional land and the energy is generated directly at load centers. Within residential buildings, multi-family homes (MFH) are particularly interesting because of the economies of scale and their greater potential for emissions reductions. READ MORE

  2. 2. Spatially explicit electrification modelling insights : Applications, benefits, limitations and an open tool for geospatial electrification modelling

    Author : Dimitris Mentis; Mark I. Howells; Sonia Yeh; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energiteknik; Energy Technology;

    Abstract : Developing countries confront the challenge of generating more electricity to meet demands in a sustainable manner. According to the World Bank’s 2015 Global Tracking Framework, roughly 15% of world population (or 1.1 billion people) lack access to electricity, and many more rely on poor quality electricity supplies.

  3. 3. Multi-dimensional approach used for energy and indoor climate evaluation applied to a low-energy building

    Author : Fredrik Karlsson; Bahram Moshfegh; Hazim Awbi; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Low-energy building; energy; indoor climate; simulation; Lågenergihus; energi; inomhusklimat; simulering; Building engineering; Byggnadsteknik;

    Abstract : The building sector alone accounts for almost 40% of the total energy demand and people spend more than 80% of their time indoors. Reducing energy demand in buildings is essential to the achievement of a sustainable built environment. At the same time, it is important to not deteriorate people’s health, well-being and comfort in buildings. READ MORE

  4. 4. Polarization portraits of lightharvesting antennas: from single molecule spectroscopy to imaging

    Author : Rafael Camacho Dejay; Kemisk fysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Energy transfer; Single molecule spectroscopy; Exciton; Fluorescence microscopy; Fluorescence polarization; Light-harvesting; Chromophore; Conjugated Polymer; Photosynthesis;

    Abstract : Multichromophoric systems are very important in photosynthesis and any device that uses solar energy for its operation. This is because multichromophoric light-harvesting antennas are responsible for the absorption of light and the efficient transfer of the absorbed energy toward distinct places where it is to be used or stored.

  5. 5. The coronal heating problem

    Author : Boris V. Gudiksen; Göran Scharmer; James Klimchuk; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Solen; Corona; Magneto hydro dynamik; Astronomy and astrophysics; Astronomi och astrofysik;

    Abstract : The heating of the solar corona has been investigated during four of decades and several mechanisms able to produce heating have been proposed. It has until now not been possible to produce quantitative estimates that would establish any of these heating mechanism as the most important in the solar corona. READ MORE
