  1. 6. Study into the Potential and Feasibility of a Standalone Solar-Wind Hybrid Electric Energy Supply System

    Författare :Getachew Bekele; Björn Palm; Philip Eames; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Wind Speed; Sunshine Duration; Solar Radiation; Feasibility Study; Standalone System; Solar-Wind Hybrid; Thermal energy engineering; Termisk energiteknik;

    Sammanfattning : The tendency to use renewable energy resources has grown continuouslyover the past few decades, be it due to fear over warnings of globalwarming or because of the depletion and short life of fossil fuels or evenas a result of the interest which has developed among researchers doingscientific research into it. This work can be considered as joining any ofthese groups with an objective of giving electric light to the poorpopulation living in one of the poorest nations in the world. LÄS MER

  2. 7. Combustion of agricultural residues : Application for Stirling micro-combined heat and power

    Författare :Evelyn Cardozo; Torsten Torsten Fransson; Carlos Augusto Santos Silva; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energiteknik; Energy Technology;

    Sammanfattning : Access to energy services is crucial for the development of countries. Therefore, in developing countries, the access to modern conversion technologies would contribute to reduce the poverty, improve health services and promote the economy especially in rural areas. Around 2.5 billion people in these countries use biomass for cooking. LÄS MER

  3. 8. And then they lived sustainably ever after? : Part I, experiences from rural electrification in Tanzania, Zambia and Kenya

    Författare :Elisabeth Ilskog; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energiteknik; Energy Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : Access to basic, clean energy services is essential for sustainable development and poverty eradication. Still, many people worldwide lack access to modern energy, such as electricity. In Africa, the lack of electricity services is affecting in particular rural areas. LÄS MER

  4. 9. Sustainable Energy Access for All : Initial tools to compare technology options and costs

    Författare :Francesco Fuso Nerini; Mark Howells; Hisham Zerriffi; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energiteknik; Energy Technology;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis presents analytical advances to support quantitative insights into national and local policies for achieving energy access goals. The key objective is the creation of an analytical tool to compare technology options for achieving energy access goals and to estimate the cost of reaching those goals. LÄS MER

  5. 10. District heating and cooling systems transition : Evaluation of current challenges and future possibilities
