1. The Non-Energy Benefits of Industrial Energy Efficiency : Investments and Measures
Sammanfattning : Improved industrial energy efficiency is viewed as an important means in the reduction of CO2 emissions and climate change mitigation. Various energy efficiency measures for improving energy efficiency exists, but even evaluated as cost-effective, there seems to be a difference between the energy efficiency measures that theoretically could be undertaken and which measures that actually are realised.

2. The Investment Process for Capital Investments : The case of industrial energy-efficiency investments and non-energy benefits
Sammanfattning : Capital investments play a crucial role for the business of every firm. In an industrial context, energy efficiency is an important means to meet future energy needs and in the same time reduce climate impact. LÄS MER
3. Non-Energy Benefits of Industrial Energy Efficiency : Roles and Potentials
Sammanfattning : Climate and environmental targets place significant requirements on energy efficiency and improved industrial energy efficiency is viewed as one of the most important means of reducing CO2 emissions and mitigating climate change. Even though efforts have been undertaken to improve energy efficiency there is still the potential for further improvements to be made. LÄS MER
4. Management control for sustainability : Activities and procedures for energy management in industrial companies
Sammanfattning : The thesis takes its point of departure in the important role of the industrial sector in mitigating climate change through a reduced energy use. There is a lack of understanding for how energy management should be organised and implemented in industrial companies. LÄS MER
5. Operability Considerations for Retrofit Design of Industrial Process Energy Systems
Sammanfattning : Energy efficiency is crucial to reduce fuel usage and related emissions in industry. In energy-intensive process industry, the use of heat accounts for a large share of the total energy use and a reduction of the heating and cooling demand is thus important for decreasing energy use.
