  1. 11. Exploiting cross-level linkages to steer the bioenergy transition

    Författare :Francis X Johnson; Semida Silveira; Geert Verbong; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; energy transition; modern bioenergy; traditional biomass; cross-level linkages; institutional design; regional development; alternative fuels; Energy Technology; Energiteknik;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis develops the notion of the bioenergy transition as the long-term transformation of biomass from a local resource into a global commodity. An historical assessment is combined with interdisciplinary analysis that focuses especially on liquid biofuels and highlights the environmentally innovative case of bioethanol. LÄS MER

  3. 12. Non-CO2 greenhouse gases, uncertainty and land-use competition

    Författare :Daniel Johansson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Kyoto protocol; energy system; integrated assessment; environmental economics; land use change; bioenergy; climate change; greenhouse gases; GWP;

    Sammanfattning : Over the past 250 years the concentrations of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere have increased drastically. It is close to scientific consensus that these changes have increased the temperature of the earth. LÄS MER

  4. 13. Wood fuel markets in Northern Europe : price formation and internationalization

    Författare :Olle Olsson; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : High fossil fuel prices and ambitions to reduce greenhouse gas emissions have increased demand for renewable energy and are changing wood fuel market structures. Wood fuels are to a rapidly growing degree used in industrial proportions and traded in commercial markets. LÄS MER

  5. 14. Trade-off analysis of forest ecosystem services – A modelling approach

    Författare :Xi Pang; Ulla Mörtberg; Berit Balfors; Brian Fath; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Forest bioenergy feedstock; Landscape simulation; Forest simulation; Ecosystem services modelling; Integrated sustainability assessment; Spatial optimization; Optimization heuristics; Mark- och vattenteknik; Land and Water Resources Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : Forest is a resource that is increasingly utilized for multiple purposes. The balance between energy demands and the long-term capacity of ecosystems to support biodiversity and other ecosystem services is crucial. LÄS MER

  7. 15. At the crossroads of bioenergy and agriculture in developing countries : Challenges and prospects for fossil fuels replacement and CO2 abatement in the case of Thailand

    Författare :Wathanyu Amatayakul; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; bioenergy plantations; land-use decision; developing countries; CO2 abatement; ethanol program; Thailand; wood crops; CDM;

    Sammanfattning : Studies estimate that the potential contribution of biomass to the global primary energy supply from cultivation of crops for energy is substantial in the long term, from about 50 to 240 EJ/year in 2050. Most of this biomass is projected to come from cultivation in developing countries. LÄS MER
