To reduce carbon emissions, logistics companies take measures to achieve the climate neutrality target to reach “Green Logistics.” As one of the valuable measures, gradually replacing present fossil fuel vehicles with electric vehicles for parcel delivery and linehaul transportation is scheduled at the terminals of logistics companies. The charging load of a fully electrified vehicle fleet challen

This paper examines the reaction-to-fire behaviour of building materials containing phase change materials by predicting their fire classification according to the European reaction-to-fire classification system (Euroclasses). While various building materials containing PCMs exist today, their application in buildings has been somewhat limited due to the fire behaviour of these building materials.

Materials chemistry research focus on solid materials, their synthesis and the resulting properties. This may be for investigating new, unknown materials or to design a material for a particular purpose. We usually go all the way down to the crystal and atomic structure to understand the properties of the material. The subject includes hybrid materials, where inorganic, polymer or biological mater

The recent push for decarbonization in the maritime sector presents an opportunity for ports to strengthen their position as energy hubs. This work studies the existing energy flows in the Port of Trelleborg, one of Europe's biggest roll-on, roll-off ports, and proposes some energy-related development strategies. The current energy flows directly concerning the port are for the most part elect

Sveriges framtida elsystem står inför en stor omställning, där kärnkraft successivt kommer att fasas ut, samtidigt som det sker en stor utbyggnad av vindkraft. Vindkraftens sjunkande priser, tillsammans med Sveriges mål om ett 100 % förnybart elsystem år 2040, gör det till en attraktiv resurs. En omställning från en leveranstrygg elproduktion baserad på kärnkraft, till en mer variabel med vindkrafSweden's future electricity system is facing a transformation, where nuclear power will gradually be phased out, while there is a large expansion of wind power. The declining wind power prices, together with Sweden's goal of a 100% renewable electricity system in 2040, makes it an attractive resource. However, a change from a secure supply of energy from nuclear production, to a more varia

Detta examensarbete undersöker den tekno-ekonomiska genomförbarheten av att integrera vätgaslagringssystem med havsbaserade vindkraftsparker på den svenska energimarknaden. När Sverige övergår till ett mer förnybart energisystem skapar variationen i vindkraftsproduktion utmaningar för nätstabilitet och elmarknaden. Vätgaslagring erbjuder en potentiell lösning genom att omvandla överskottsenergi fr

As the future energy goals of the building industry involve reducing the energy intensity in buildings as well as increasing the share of renewable energy sources, a suitable approach would be energy renovating existing buildings and further utilizing renewable energy production technology to reach Net-Zero Energy Building (NZEB) standard. This study is therefore investigating the economic feasibi

A reactive hydride composite (RHC) with initial composition 3CaH(2) + 4MgB(2) + CaF2 was studied by in situ synchrotron radiation powder X-ray diffraction (SR-PXD) and X-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) at the B K-edge and at the Ca K-edge. The hydrogenation reaction proceeds by an unknown intermediate. No evidence of intermediates was observed during the dehydrogenation reaction. B and

Just nu pågår en omfattande global energiomställning mot en ökad andel förnybar energi för att minska koldioxidutsläppen och motverka de negativa klimatförändringarna. I denna energiomställning har grön vätgas pekats ut som en viktig pusselbit på grund dess potential till att minska koldioxidutsläppen enormt genom att användas i stora mängder inom bland annat stålindustri, jordbruk och transportse
