Climate smart territories are proposed as the solution to the perceived problems of poverty, food insecurity, gender equality, degradation of eco-systems, and climate change vulnerability, in the mountain region in Nicaragua. By educating farmers and rural families the practices that lead to these problems can be changed. In order to reflect upon the proposed solution fieldwork was conducted with
En sammanställning av större geoenergianläggningar i Sverige har i samband med detta arbete gjorts. Arton anläggningar med bergvärme, borrhålslager, högtemperaturlager samt akfiverlager ingår i denna. Utifrån information om dessa anläggningars drift har rekommendationer för mätpunkter getts för att bättre säkra mätning och driftuppföljning. Geoenergi är Sveriges tredje största förnybara energikällShallow geothermal energy is the third biggest renewable source of energy in Sweden. Low-temperature energy stored in the ground and groundwater is collected by a ground heat exchanger with circulating brine and a ground source heat pump, GSHP. It is possible to extract both heating energy and cooling energy in these systems; in the winter the earth is utilised as a heat source, and in the summer
Syfte: Denna uppsats syftar till att se om den svenska koden för bolagsstyrning har levt upp till sitt ursprungliga syfte, att förbättra bolagsstyrningen samt att öka förtroendet.

Ecoist AB utvecklar en prototyp till en trehjulig elbil för två personer. Två komponenter till fordonet har undersökts: den övre bärarmen i den främre hjulupphängningen och en bussning som sitter i denna bärarm. Målet med examensarbetet har varit att se om det finns några funktionella eller ekonomiska fördelar med att tillverka dessa genom 3D-printing. Olika sätt att framställa komponenterna har uEcoist AB is developing a three-wheeled electric car with two seats. Two components for the vehicle have been examined: the upper wishbone in the front wheel suspension and a bushing that is mounted in this wishbone. The goal of the thesis has been to examine any potential functional or economic advantages of manufacturing these using 3D-printing. Different ways of producing the components have be
