  1. 1. Combined Assessment of Future Heat Supply and Demand - A Dynamic Systems Approach

    Författare :Karl Vilén; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TIMES; Climate policy; Low heat demand housing; District heating; Heating system; Dynamic energy system modeling; Housing;

    Sammanfattning : In order to meet climate change mitigation targets, the use of fossil fuels has to be reduced and, eventually, be phased out in all sectors. As the heating sector occupies a central place in energy systems, especially in Nordic countries, it is affected by and affects other energy sectors. LÄS MER

  2. 2. In the Name of Energy Efficiency : Justice and energy poverty in the energy transition of Swedish housing

    Författare :Jenny von Platten; Avdelningen för Byggnadsfysik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Energy transition; Housing; Justice; Energy poverty; Economic inequality; Flexibility;

    Sammanfattning : The energy transition of housing is accelerating in parallel with economic inequality reaching historically high levels. There is thus an opportunity to reduce inequalities in living conditions, but also a risk that the costs of the transition are unequally distributed and aggravate existing inequalities. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Evolution of Future Heating Systems - Modeling of an Expanding City Using a Dynamic Systems Approach

    Författare :Karl Vilén; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Heating system; Thermal energy storage; Low-heat-demand housing; Dynamic energy systems modeling; Housing; District heating; Climate policy; TIMES;

    Sammanfattning : Reducing greenhouse gas emissions is central to meeting climate change mitigation targets. Since the energy sector is one of the largest greenhouse gas emitters, it is essential that all the actors within the energy sector reduce their respective emissions. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Att elda för kråkorna? : hushållens energianvändning inom bostadssektorn i Sverige 1913-2008

    Författare :Mikael Levin; Magnus Lindmark; Ann-Kristin Bergquist; Astrid Kander; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Economic History; households; energy consumption; consumption patterns; housing; housing and energy policy; carbon dioxide emissions; Ekonomisk historia; hushåll; energikonsumtion; konsumtionsmönster; hushåll och energipolitik; koldioxidutsläpp; ekonomisk historia; Economic History;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis investigates the development of the long-term energy consumption in the Swedish households by estimating the sector’s total energy use and moreover, by examining how structural, institutional and economic factors have affected the demand for energy in the residential sector during the period 1913-2008. The investigated period covers a transition from traditional fuels, such as firewood, to fossil fuels and finally renewable energy. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Energy efficiency - Trends, determinants, trade-offs and rebound effects with examples from Swedish housing

    Författare :Jonas Nässén; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; building sector; Sweden; carbon dioxide; rebound effect; energy policy; Energy efficiency; climate change;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis is based on five separate papers. The first paper analyses the development of the Swedish building sector over time by decomposing CO2 emissions in underlying trends, and studying separate energy use trends for existing buildings, new buildings and best available technology.
