  • Smart Home Research Set to Begin

    KTH researchers are about to begin work on designs for innovative new “smart homes” in Norra Djurgårdsstaden, the gigantic showcase development that will re-shape the northeastern edge of the Swedish capital in coming decades. Smart electric grids, already a KTH strength, are an important element in the project.

  • A Range Tracker for Electric Cars

    A major shortcoming of electric cars is drivers’ uncertainty over how far the vehicle can be driven before the battery dies, a phenomenon known as “range anxiety.” But a new Web-based tool developed by KTH researchers promises to show just how far an electric car can go before the charge runs out.

  • Roads could power cars across Europe

    Electric car development is primarily focused on fuel efficiency, and until recently, researchers have been seeking answers under the bonnet. But a team at KTH Royal Institute of Technology is looking a little lower, at the street below.

  • Study: The transportation goal is impossible to reach without reduced car travel

    The Swedish parliament’s goal to reduce emissions from passenger cars by 70 percent from 2010 to 2030 will be unreachable unless the amount of passenger cars and their use is decreased, according to a newly published study by KTH researchers Mattias Höjer, Jonas Åkerman and Hampus Berg Mårtensson.
