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. Energy System Collaboration as a Vital Measure to Improve District Heating Performance
Sammanfattning : With joint commitments by twenty-seven countries under the Paris Agreement, the European Union envisioned a resource-efficient and competitive economy without net emission of greenhouse gases by 2050. Immediate and massive efforts across sectors of energy, industry, and buildings will be required, and district heating (DH), through its ability to integrate efficiency measures on the supply and demand side, can play a central role.

13. A systematic approach for major renovation of residential buildings
Sammanfattning : In Sweden, buildings are responsible for about 40 % of total energy use and about 10 % of total CO2 emissions Today more than 60 % of existing Swedish residential buildings are over 40 years old and are in need of major renovation. In addition, 15 % of all multi-family buildings and 27 % of all single-family houses were built before 1945. LÄS MER
14. Energy Efficient Window Systems. Effects on Energy Use and Daylight in Buildings
Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with energy-efficient windows in Swedish buildings. Parametric studies were performed in the dynamic energy simulation tool Derob-LTH in order to study the effects of window choices on energy use and indoor climate for both residential and office buildings.

15. On the Uptake of Energy Efficiency Technologies in European Residential Buildings
Sammanfattning : Residential buildings constitute approximately 75% of the European building stock, accounting for circa 30% of the EU´s overall energy demand and emissions. They also represent one of the biggest sources of energy saving potential, holding a crucial role in achieving EU carbon targets. LÄS MER
