Part 1 Energy chain analysisYou will define and analyze an "energy chain" in which you will use renewable sea power to supply a chosen onemeans of transport used on a daily basis. This can be something that is used in work/industry or something that is used forfrom/work/school. It can be a car, a scooter, a bicycle, a boat which is preferably powered by electric energy. You must define this energy chain where you start with a needs analysis on the consumption side.1. Identify the user and usage situation - "use profile"2. Carry out simple calculations of the energy requirement based on this "usage profile".3. Then define the entire energy chain from the energy source to the consumer. The energy source should preferably be sea power, or a combination where ocean energy is included together with other energy sources.4. Carry out simple analyzes on the energy chain where you vary various parameters such as losses and efficiency levelsin the various energy transfer elements that form part of this energy chain. Part 2. Renewable energy source and energy conversion from ocean - based powerYou must choose an ocean-based energy source, preferably wave power or tides, which will produce the energyto their energy chain. Here you can also optionally choose a combined solution with several renewable sources such astakes care of variations over time.1. Carry out simple analyzes to find the potential of the energy source based on a selected geographical location. Find datafor wave, wind and sun from meterological sources (statistics and websites).2. Investigate what technological solutions are available to:o Harvesting energy from waves, currents, tides and windo Transform energy from waves/current/tides/wind into usable energy (electrical power)o Store and transport the energy3. Prepare a conceptual design of the power plant itself - with a special focus on energy conversion. Hereit is encouraged to make simple prototypes and carry out tests in the laboratory.4. Perform calculations that include variations to which the renewable energy source is exposed (e.g.weather conditions), and what that means for any storage capacity for the energy, and/or combination withother sources. Look at different options for intermediate storage of the energy; battery, hydrogen or other typesstorage methods that can be used. Here, try to be open to also consider other options than batteries.
