Since the beginning of the twenty-first century the limitations of the fossil age with regard to the continuing growth of energy demand, the peaking mining rate of oil, the growing impact of CO2 emissions on the environment and the dependency of the econom ...
The optimal use of forest energy wood, industrial wood residues, waste wood, agricultural residues, animal manure, biowaste, and sewage sludge in 2010 and 2030 was assessed for Europe. An energy system model was developed comprising 13 principal fossil tec ...
When speaking of energy production and consumption in the context of climate change, the interest usually lies in mitigation policies and measures, i.e. the energy system is seen as an emitter of greenhouse gases. This paper takes a different approach and ...
Hybrid choice models have proved to be a powerful framework that integrates attitudinal and perceptional data into discrete choice models. However the measurement component of such a framework often fails to exploit individual-specific information that mig ...
To increase the appeal of electric vehicles, the trend is to shorten the charging time and to lengthen the autonomy. The new ultrafast charge compatible battery on lithium-titanate gives the best compromise between high power and energy densities. The main ...
Since 2008, the MicroThrust (MT) consortium consisting of EPFL, Nanospace, QMUL, SystematIC, and TNO has been working on the development of a MEMS based electric propulsion system. Since 2010, the work has been performed as part of the European Union’s FP7 ...
Hybrid choice models have proved to be a powerful framework that integrates attitudinal and perceptional data into discrete choice models. However the measurement component of such a framework often fails to exploit individual-specific information that mig ...
In most of the western countries, car is the prevalent means of transport for local mobility. At the same time, sensitivity to environmental issues is increasing, correlated to the consciousness that carbon dioxide emissions have to be reduced. In regard t ...
This thesis addresses the availability and environmentally optimal use of bioenergy. A life cycle perspective is adopted to consider the supply, the technical conversion, and the final use of bioenergy as well as its use for the substitution of fossil ener ...
This work proposes a design methodology that allows designing the energy storage unit of an electric vehicle in order to minimize the required energy and the resulting losses. A simple analytical model of the vehicle losses is derived. Driving conditions a ...
