Distributed PV generation is an increasingly popular way of integrating renewable energy sources into the power system. High PV penetration can, however, lead to issues, particularly overvoltage in LV networks. To accurately evaluate when issues can occur, interactions between LV and MV networks...

Industrial demand response will become increasingly important in power grids with high shares of variable renewables, yet the existing knowledge on how the industrial electricity demand and flexibility will change with the decarbonization of chemical processes is limited. Here we develop a mixed...

Energy communities are a way for end-users to contribute to the green shift, by installing distributed energy resources such as photovoltaic panels. The focus of energy community studies has mainly been on residential and not industrial consumers. Industrial consumers can be an important key in...

Around 70% of worldwide industrial energy use is today based on fossil energy. Electrification of low temperature heat in this sector is pointed out as a key measure to reduce emissions. A large amount of the low temperature heat demand can be served by mature technologies, providing a possible fast...

Annulus barrier materials are an essential component of Oil & Gas wells to prevent fluid migration across geological layers. When a well is prepared to be plugged, evaluation of the integrity of the barrier is essential to decide whether the annulus materials can be left as such, or must be repaired...
