1. Island-based Polygeneration Systems : On the Feasibility of Solar-Biomass-driven Distributed Concepts
Sammanfattning : The colossal risks and challenges posed by climate change require innovative solutions that must fulfil energy service demands sustainably. The concept of small-scale, biomass-based polygeneration (SBP) is one such technological approach, which optimizes locally supplied fuels to provide several energy services like electricity, heating, cooling, potable water, and/or bio-chemical products.

2. Conducting Polymer Electrodes for Thermogalvanic Cells
Sammanfattning : Fossil fuels are still the dominant (ca. 80%) energy source in our society. A significant fraction is used to generate electricity with a heat engine possessing an efficiency of approximately 35%. Therefore, about 65% of fossil fuel energy is wasted in heat. LÄS MER
3. Using life cycle assessment to support the development of electrified road vehicles. Component data models, methodology recommendations and technology advice for minimizing environmental impact
Sammanfattning : The anthropogenic pressure on the Earth system already overshoots safe limits for climate change, so there is an urgent need to drastically reduce greenhouse gas emissions caused by transportation. Electric propulsion technology is a promising solution that can decouple fossil fuel use from road vehicle traffic. LÄS MER
4. High Temperature Corrosion of Superheaters in Biomass - and Waste-Fired Boilers: Combat on two fronts
Sammanfattning : Carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas contributing to the greenhouse effect and a significant contribution comes from the use of fossil fuels. Utilizing more renewable fuels is therefore a solution to decrease the net release of CO2 emissions to the atmosphere. LÄS MER
5. Glass-forming ternary blends: towards stable Polymer Solar Cells
Sammanfattning : The globally increasing use of electricity goes hand in hand with climate change and the gradual depletion of fossil sources of fuel. To address these challenges renewable sources of energy are in high demand. LÄS MER
