To meet consumers energy needs there are several different production sources and storage options available. According to Svenska Kraftnt 42.5% of the energy was produced from hydropower 22% from wind power 4.5% from thermal power 30% from nuclear power and 1% from solar power in 2023.
An increased share of weatherdependent energy production also raises the need for energy storage to ilize the electricity grid during variations in meteorological conditions.
Thermal power plants remain an important component of Swedens energy supply; these plants are fueled by various sources that contribute to emissions. With rising energy demand it is crucial that these systems are developed operated and maintained optimally. A fundamental prerequisite for future success is a deep understanding of the systems which requires continuous ysis to identify and implement development potential. This odology enables proactive adaptation and optimization of energy systems as needs change and new technologies are introduced.
An effective tool for this ysis is simulation and optimization. Using the simulation platform Modelon Impact a digital twin of the system is developed where data is integrated to simulate and optimize various scenarios concerning weather conditions and energy consumption. The optimization results can provide valuable insights into potential development opportunities in the system from a technology and operational perspective to enhance profitability and efficiency.
The goal of this project is to investigate whether there is development potential at the component or operational level in the energy technology used to meet consumer needs. If development potential or improvement suggestions are identified provide justification for why the investment should be made to implement the changes.
The aim of this project is to model a digital twin of an existing facility that produces electricity or heat as well as to discover development potential in the system from a profitability perspective.
You are welcome to apply as a single student or together with a fellow student. If you are to apply together with a cowriter you need to apply and complete the test separately.Just make sure to inform us that you intend to write together and who your partner is.In your personal letter (if you are two students you can submit the same) we welcome you to describe why the project attracts you and why you would be suited for the challenge.
Please send in your application with a CV and cover letter. We will conduct interviews continuously and the application period is open until further notice.
