1. Industrial energy efficiency improvement – the role of policy and evaluation
Sammanfattning : At EU and to a varying degree at Member State (MS) level, industrial energy efficiency improvement (EEI) is considered an attractive means for reaching political objectives of different dimensions, not least environmental. For energy-intensive manufacturing industry in particular, EEI can lead to cost reductions, improved profitability and competitiveness. LÄS MER
2. Steel Beyond Coal : Socio-Technical Change and the Emergent Politics of Steel Decarbonisation
Sammanfattning : The steel industry is responsible for 8% of all anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions and is the second largest user of coal after the power sector. The main emission source in steel production is the blast furnace, which converts iron ore and metallurgical coal into pig iron that is then further refined into steel. LÄS MER
3. Decarbonising plastics – On the technologies and framings of carbon capture and utilisation
Sammanfattning : Plastics consist of fossil fuels, from both a feedstock and energy perspective and thus need to decarbonise. This thesis maps and explores the framings and technologies that surround plastics decarbonisation and the potential mitigation pathway of carbon capture and utilisation. Here, three of the main findings are presented. LÄS MER
4. Advancing urban analytics for energy transitions : Data-driven strategic planning for citywide building retrofitting
Sammanfattning : Decarbonisation of the building stock is essential for energy transitions towards climate-neutral cities in Sweden, Europe and globally. Meeting 1. LÄS MER
5. A multi-sector framework for accelerating renewable energy deployment in power, transport and industry
Sammanfattning : Climate change is the defining issue of our time (United Nations, 2018). Renewable energy, combinedwith energy efficiency, can potentially be the most effective solution to address energy-relatedGreenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions. LÄS MER
