  1. 6. Towards electrified public bus transport : The case of Stockholm

    Author : Maria Xylia; Semida Silveira; Maria Börjesson; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; electric bus; charging infrastructure; optimisation; public transport; fossil-free; transport planning; Sweden; Energy Technology; Energiteknik;

    Abstract : This thesis addresses the challenge of road transport electrification using a systems approach for the particular context of Stockholm’s public transport system. The objective is to identify the benefits of large-scale bus electrification on energy efficiency and greenhouse gas emissions, as well as the cost and planning considerations required for achieving such a shift.

  2. 7. Empirical Essays on Railway Infrastructure Costs in Sweden

    Author : Mats Andersson; Lars-Göran Mattsson; John Preston; KTH; []
    Keywords : Railways; Infrastructure; Marginal Costs; Maintenance; Renewal; Econometrics; Panel Data; Survival Analysis; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : The subject of this thesis concerns pricing the use of transport infrastructure. We are empirically investigating the relationship between railway traffic volumes and infrastructure management costs. More specifically, we are interested in estimating the change in infrastructure management costs from marginal variations in traffic volumes, i.e. READ MORE

  3. 8. 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

  4. 9. Transport systems meeting long-term climate targets : A backcasting approach

    Author : Jonas Åkerman; Mattias Höjer; Glenn Lyons; KTH; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Other social sciences; Övrig samhällsvetenskap;

    Abstract : Future transport systems consistent with long-term climate targets are examined in this thesis, using a systems perspective covering the entire transport system. Aviation is given particular attention, as expansion of this mode is difficult to reconcile with climate targets. READ MORE

  5. 10. Essays on labor supply, pension policy, and inequality

    Author : Johan Gustafsson; Gauthier Lanot; Thomas Aronsson; Katharina Jenderny; Spencer Bastani; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; income inequality; labor supply; life cycle; retirement; public pension; Economics; nationalekonomi;

    Abstract : Paper [I] analyzes the dynamic properties of life-cycle earnings in Sweden using microdata. We study the evolution of permanent and transitory earnings inequality over the period 2002--2015. Our data comes from administrative records gathered in the ASTRID database. READ MORE
