In recent years, power systems have undergone changes in technology and definition of the associated stakeholders. With the increase in distributed renewable generation and small- to medium-sized consumers starting to actively participate on the supply side, a suitable incorporation of decentralized...

...provided that the necessary unilateral declarations are deposited from Norway and Sweden to IMO and that Sweden and Norway enter a bilateral agreement on the matter. Economic incentives for CCS include the EU-ETS for fossil CO₂ and the Swedish support for Bio-CCS through reverse auctioning....

...health index, probability of breakdown and remaining life for power transformers is presented. The method combines three basic models; a physical winding degradation model, a health index model based on condition monitoring data combined with expert judgement, and a statistics-based end-of-life model....

...unavoidable, as the share of wind power in the generation mix is growing. The adaptation process of grid codes for wind power plants is not yet complete, and grid codes are expected to evolve further in the future. ENTSO-E is the umbrella organization for European TSOs, seen by many as a leader in terms of...

...experiences with structural collapse of a similar concept have shown that it is crucial to secure the cage against rifts and escapes. To ensure this, a method to detect leakages and pump failure at an early stage must be developed. To detect leakages it is important to know how the bag deforms under static...

Reducing the operation and maintenance (O&M) cost is a necessity in current offshore wind farms so that the produced power can achieve a competitive price in the market. An offshore wind farm normally comprises a large number of turbines which demand frequent maintenance visits. In addition to making...
