The global energy sector stands at a critical juncture, with the imperative shift towards renewable energy sources posing challenges and opportunities for existing infrastructure and societal norms. This thesis explores the multifaceted dynamics of transit ...
Microsupercapacitors (MSCs) are attractive for use as energy devices to power wearables, IoT, and other small microsystems. Additive fabrication of these devices will facilitate easy integration into a range of ubiquitous microsystem platforms. In this wor ...
Shallow ground-source heat pumps (GSHPs) are a promising technology for contributing to the decarbonisation of the energy sector. In heating-dominated climates, the combined use of GSHPs for both heating and cooling increases their technical potential, def ...
Electricity production and consumption must be balanced for the electrical grid. However, the rapidly growing intermittent power sources are now challenging the supply-demand balance, leading to large flexibility needs for grid management. The plant integr ...
