Bakom våra varma element och eluttagens pålitliga strömförsörjning står svenska kraftvärmeverk för 47 % av värmeproduktionen och 9 % av elproduktionen. När dessa verk stannar eller behöver underhåll, förblir vi trygga tack vare företagens ansvar att leverera stabil el och värme. Denna rapport utforskar hur elmarknaderna kan användas för att hantera produktionsutmaningar. Studier visar att genom atIn 2021, combined heat and power plants accounted for 9 % of the electricity production in Sweden. However, Swedish combined heat and power plants plan their production based on the demands of the district heating network. In instances of unforeseen disruptions affecting production, priority is given to meeting heating demand. Consequently, electricity generation and the management of imbalances t

Swedish title: Observerande utan erkännande: Kinas fragmentering, Manchukuos uppkomst och den danska diplomatiska kåren. This master’s thesis is an exploration of the concepts of quasi-states (non-recognised states) and fragmentation in historical international relations, particularly during the later part of the interwar period (1919–1939). The Japanese military invaded north-eastern China, the r

In the past decade, we have witnessed the rise of China's New Energy Vehicle (NEV) market, the expansion of NEVs has emphasized China's dependency on lithium resources, which reshaped the fortunes of Yichun, Jiangxi- a city with the name "the Lithium City of Asia." Along with Yichun's current prosperity under China's NEV market development, the question of how its Lithium

Historians have often noted the existence of frictions in early labour markets. Swedish servants, for example, experienced large mobility restrictions and coercion, preventing them from switching employers. Despite this, wage studies have often relied on assumptions of perfect competition, ignoring these findings. This study uses more than 3,000 observations of servant wages for Southern Sweden, c

Elite athletes in entrepreneurship is an emergent field of research with scholars showing advantageous entrepreneurial traits in the athletes and a good job-fit between athletes and entrepreneurship. However, current literature presents a fragmented view, often examining characteristics in isolation, and failing to show the process of how elite athletes become entrepreneurs. Hence, this study seek

Purpose and aim: Our study investigates the phenomenon of nostalgic football apparel consumption, emphasizing the interactive cultural processes that shape nostalgic feelings and in turn influence consumer behavior. Despite the prevalence of nostalgia marketing in various industries, the sports apparel sector, particularly football, has been slow to capitalize on this trend and simultaneously rese

När en exploatering planeras på privatägd mark av en byggherre eller en fastighetsägare kan ett exploateringsavtal tecknas med kommunen i syfte att klargöra genomförandet av en detaljplan. I avtalet har kommunen möjlighet att ålägga en exploatör att utföra eller finansiera åtgärder för anläggande av allmän plats till följd av den värdestegring som exploatörens mark genomgår. De två rekvisit som måThe aim of this paper is to examine the property development process involving development agreements and how their framework should be applied. This includes exploring the allocation of costs for the construction of public spaces between the municipality and the developer when such agreements are signed. The study addresses the following research questions: • What is the size of the development

Pedagogiska spel har blivit ett allt vanligare inslag i grundskolans undervisning. För att eleverna ska få en bra spelupplevelse är det viktigt att läraren förstår spelreglerna fullt ut och därför behöver lärarhandledningar utformas på ett läsvänligt sätt. Denna undersökning syftar till att testa två olika dispositioner för en lärarhandledning till ett läsfrämjande spel för skolklasser. Nio lärare

Denna teoretiska essä undersöker hur den strukturella och subjektiva relationen till mildare former av ’psykisk ohälsa’ kännetecknade för senmoderniteten är betingad en ökad rationalisering. Analysen utgår huvudsakligen från Hartmut Rosas teorier om modernitet och Nikolas Rose teorier om psykiatrins spridning. Psykiatrins växande omfång och attraktionskraft tolkas genom flera teoretiska begrepp, sThis theoretical essay explores how the structural and subjective relationship to milder forms of ‘mental illness’ characteristic of late modernity is conditioned by rationalization. This analysis is mainly operated through Hartmut Rosa's theories on modernity and Nikolas Roses's theory on psychiatrization. The essay interprets the growing prominence and appeal of psychiatry through severa

In modern information technology there is an increase in demand for high-speed communication. Looking at the popular applications of AI and machine learning, a trend is to implement dedicated hardware accelerators for faster and more efficient computing. However this puts more of a demand on the ability to transfer the large amounts of data in the form of weights, input data and results to and fro

Mikrovågsresonatorer används inom supraledande kvantsystem för avläsning och manipulation av kvantkomponenter. I avhandlingen analyseras en sådan där gränsdragningen mellan foton och exciterad ’atom’ börjar suddas ut i dessa system. De senaste decennierna har supraledande kretsar och komponenter haft stort intresse inom forskningen. Det finns flera orsaker till detta; bland annat tack vare att deThis thesis models a superconducting device, known as a Transmon, from the perspective of a microwave resonator. The work is motivated by Ref. 1, where such a device was realised and characterised by its resonator properties, showing that it can be viewed as a high-impedance resonator. In the thesis, the resonator is symmetrically connected to two transmission lines: one input port and one output

Thesis Purpose: This thesis aims to explore the construction and dynamics of 'dupe culture' as an emergent digital consumer culture, examining its implications for brand authenticity, consumer identity, and branding within the digital age. Theoretical perspective: The study takes on a consumer culture perspective, using the Circuit of Culture (Du Gay et al. 1997) and insights from scholars

The High Luminosity-Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC) will reach an approximate pile-up of 200 collisions per bunch crossing, ten times more than the current Large Hadron Collider. Beginning operation at the end of the decade, it will accumulate 3000 fb−1, increasing the chances of observing new processes and allowing measurement of rare processes with higher precision. Moreover, the pile-up increase

Rennet coagulation ability of milk is of utmost importance in cheese manufacturing industry since it is directly related to cheese quality and yield, then translated into economic benefit. This study examined the rennet coagulation ability and composition of milk from individual Swedish Red (SR) cows, the second most common dairy breed in Sweden. Additionally, the study explored how the presence o

I en allt varmare värld där resurserna börjar ta slut är behovet av mer miljövänliga material och bränslen större än någonsin. Kan kolhydrater, ett av naturens mest förekommande organiska material, vara en del av lösningen för ett mer hållbart samhälle? Kolhydrater består av en eller flera sammansatta sockermolekyler. Det finns en mängd olika varianter av kolhydrater som används inom allt från mPolysaccharides are a versatile group of biopolymers widely utilized in a range of industries, from food and medicine to construction. Engineering of the enzymes involved in the synthesis of polysaccharides could provide a way to chemically modify the composition, and therefore be used as a tool to obtain polysaccharides with new desired properties. In this thesis, the substrate binding to the don

The international framework for the regulation of outer space activities that has been in place since the 1960s has come under increasing pressure in recent years. Concerns over the weaponization and militarization of outer space have grown more vocal and attempts to introduce new international agreements have fallen short. Within this context, the present study analyzes Chinese media discourse on

Energy transition is crucial to mitigate the impacts of climate change globally. Solar energy, particularly through photovoltaic (PV) technology, plays a critical role in this transition. Innovation within the solar PV industry is essential, and policy support, especially government subsidies, is crucial for its technological advancement. This study focuses on China’s solar PV industry given its l
