Techno-economic analysis and simulation of low temperature district heating networks

The continuous increase in global energy consumption has led to a greater focus on the energy required for heating buildings. This thesis presents a techno-economic model for analysing low-temperature district heating networks coupled with a geothermal heat source. The model was used to analyse an existing system in Denmark with 15 connected single-family detached houses. Each of the houses has a

Identification of restoration hotspots in landscape-scale green infrastructure planning based on model-predicted connectivity forest

Det boreala skogslandskapet har allvarligt fragmenterats på grund av mänsklig exploatering, vilket har lett till en nedsättning av deras omfattande värde i, bland annat, ekosystemtjänster, biologisk mångfald, och kultur. För att bevara det boreala skogslandskapet är det avgörande att skydda de kvarvarande fragmenten av landskapet samtidigt som att återställa den strukturella och funktionella ansluBoreal forest landscapes have undergone severe anthropogenic fragmentation and their enormous values concerning, e.g., ecosystem service, biodiversity and culture are hazarded. Maintenance of the remaining intact boreal forest landscapes and restoring the structural and functional connectivity among these remnants are essential for boreal forest conservation. In Sweden, such conservation tasks are
