Assessing the Well-being Impacts Caused by Floods

A Case Study of Charleston, South Carolina; Addressing social vulnerability through insurance policies in the face of climate change

Natural disasters, particularly floods, pose a significant threat to cities and communities, and their fre- quency and severity are increasing due to climate change. Data from the EM-DAT database reveals that floods have been the most frequent natural disasters since 2002. Projec ...
Purpose: This paper explores the potential of machine learning (ML) algorithms to mitigate uncertainty in early environmental assessments (ex-ante LCA), which are hindered by prospective nature and limited quantitative data availability. Methods: A systematic literature review wi ...

The positives and negatives of stationary battery life cycle assessments

Recommendations for modelling the use phase in stationary battery LCA studies from a critical review of current approaches in LCA studies and an LCA of an emerging organic lignin based redox flow battery

In 2050, over 80% of the worldwide electricity demand is expected to be supplied by renewables. The mismatch between supply and demand resulting from these intermittent energy sources and the physical limits of existing electrical grids are challenges in this transition, for whic ...
To meet global market demands, it will remain important to further scale up photovoltaics (PV) production. During the production of solar cells, several defects can occur. Current approaches in quality inspection are reaching their speed limits. This thesis project evaluates the ...
Energy storage systems can play a vital role in the implementation of a sustainable energy grid by allowing the wide scale implementation of fluctuating renewable energy sources like wind and solar. Therefore it is expected that in the coming years, the total amount of energy sto ...
