Case studies of two Swedish municipalities indicate that the general energy area was divided into three independent policy areas: One dealing with supply, one with conservation and one with environmental questions related to the Agenda 21 vision of an ecologically sustainable energy system. However, the dominant energy policy area in the municipalities was supply policy. This article discusses why

Plastic – the lightweight, flexible material created by humans – has been an amazing invention that changed the world and made us totally dependent on it. The past century saw the development of a number of synthetic plastic materials with different chemistries and properties suited for myriad applications unparalleled by any other natural material. However, the plastics are currently in focus not

Load problems in electricity markets occur both on the supply and demand side and can have technical, economic and even political causes. Commonly, such problems have been solved by expanding production and/or distribution capacity, importing electricity or by load management. Load management is a techno-economic measure for harmonizing the relations between supply and demand sides, optimizing pow

The research report details the current outcomes of an investigation into ways to improve the control and use of electricity for both electric utilities and residential end-users. These improvements can be achieved through electrical control possibilities where specific electrical devices could be either removed or time-shifted to less demanding periods. Two-way communicable electricity meters had

The Urban Systems and Dynamics group, led by Prof. Nik, advances the boundaries of Building Physics to explore the complex interactions between buildings, urban systems, and climate. Our research focuses on designing and optimizing strategies for buildings and urban systems (with a big focus on energy systems) that drive the sustainable urban transition and enhance the built environment's resilien

The aim of this paper is to propose a framework for the evaluation of policy instruments designed to affect development and dissemination of new energy technologies. The evaluation approach is based on the analysis of selected outcome indicators describing the process of technical change, i.e. the development and dissemination of new energy technologies, on the basis of a socio-technical systems a
