11. Low temperature deicing of road infrastructure using renewable energy
Sammanfattning : Winter road maintenance is costly but it is inevitable since it is necessary to keep roads accessible and safe during winter. Current winter road maintenance methods use annually 600 000 tons of salt, in the Nordic countries. The salt ends up in the environment along the roads and results in environmental challenges.

12. Synergy between Photovoltaic Power Generation and Electric Vehicle Charging in Urban Energy Systems : Optimization Models for Smart Charging and Vehicle-to-Grid
Sammanfattning : Cities are responsible for around 75% of global primary energy use and 70% of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, with buildings and urban mobility being two key contributors. Actions to reduce GHG emissions have been promoted and implemented in many countries in the world. LÄS MER
13. The social organization of energy efficiency in shipping: a practice-based study
Sammanfattning : The central research question explored in this study is how energy efficiency is organized onboard large merchant ships. The dominant techno-economical approach within energy research and policy, in general, and shipping research and policy, in particular, is reviewed and criticized as being too limited for understanding the challenges and opportunities related to the organization and management of energy efficiency in shipping companies.

14. Modeling and Forecasting of Electric Vehicle Charging, Solar Power Production, and Residential Load : Perspectives into the Future Urban and Rural Energy Systems
Sammanfattning : The urban and rural energy systems are undergoing modernization. This modernization is motivated by the need to increase sustainability in both systems. Some characteristics of this modernization include electrification of industries, transports, and heating and cooling loads. LÄS MER
15. Public intermediaries in the energy transition - A study of municipal energy advisors in Sweden
Sammanfattning : To mitigate climate change, a transition toward more sustainable energy production and consumption is crucial. In particular, this requires widespread adoption of renewable electricity technologies, such as solar photovoltaics (PV). As the adoption of such technologies can be challenging for new adopters, support actors such as intermediaries (i.e. LÄS MER
