Study of the ecological impact of production, operation and disposal of various types of cars
Kutnar, Václav ; Jandová, Kristýna (referee) ; Jaššo, Kamil (advisor)
To reduce greenhouse gas emissions, countries have focused on (among other things) automobile transport. However, there are different car powertrains, and each produces a different amount of emissions from different parts of their lifecycles, which also vary from state to state. Knowing exact, comparable values is necessary for deciding how to reduce these emissions most efficiently and economically possible. Existing studies often focus on only one part of the life cycle and/or are not localized to a particular state. This study analyses the entire life cycle of a vehicle and its fuel or energy for a vehicle manufactured, operated, and recycled in the Czech Republic. It draws on existing studies, supplemented by data from state agencies, vehicle manufacturers, and our calculations. It was found that in the Czech Republic, compared to a vehicle with a petrol internal combustion engine (ICEVg), an electric vehicle (BEV) has 33% lower total GHG emissions, and a vehicle with hydrogen fuel cells (FCEV) 19% lower. However, an internal combustion engine vehicle has lower emissions from its production and as a result, its cumulative emissions are lower than an electric vehicle until 70,000 km driven and a hydrogen fuel cell vehicle until 111,000 km

Modeling of energy flows in the municipality with battery systems
Řehořek, Tomáš ; Krátký,, Milan (referee) ; Paar, Martin (advisor)
This thesis studies battery systems and possibilities of their utilization together with PV systems mainly for domestic purposes. Furthermore, the thesis deals with the impact of increased number of BEVs on load demand. The aim of the thesis is to simulate and investigate the power flows, within a selected grid, with high levels of PV generation paired with battery systems. The calculation of the power flows is performed in OpenDSS and the input data for the simulations are generated in Matlab. The theoretical part of the thesis describes the technology of the battery systems and how they operate. The thesis also partly touches on the use of battery systems for grid applications. In the practical part, an evaluation of simulations investigating the capability of battery systems to limit peaks of surplus generated energy is performed. As well as that the impact of increased load caused by BEV charging and the possibilities of reduction of this load via use of battery systems is also investigated.
