This paper proposes and experimentally validates a grid-aware scheduling and control framework for Electric Vehicle Charging Stations (EVCSs) for dispatching the operation of active distribution networks (ADNs). The framework consists of two stages. In the ...

Energy transitions are pivotal for sustainability, yet their complexity and uncertainty pose significant challenges for effective planning and implementation. Participatory modelling has emerged as a promising approach to support these transitions, as it i ...

An integer vector 𝑏 ∈ Z𝑑 is a degree sequence if there exists a hypergraph with vertices {1, … , 𝑑} such that each 𝑏𝑖 is the number of hyperedges containing 𝑖. The degree-sequence polytope 𝒵 𝑑 is the convex hull of all degree sequences. We show that all bu ...

Until now, there has been a paradox in the utilization of infrared (IR) light, which carries a significant amount of solar energy (around 50% of the spectrum), for carbon dioxide (CO2) photoreduction. Given this, we propose a metallic conductor with charge ...

Personalised Environmental Control Systems (PECS) have emerged as a solution to customise thermal conditions at individual workstations, potentially reducing overall energy consumption. However, their energy performance under diverse building operating con ...

The Snowy 2.0 project is a large-scale pumped storage facility located in the Snowy Mountains in the SouthEastern part of New South Wales (Australia). It is an extension of the existing Snowy scheme, linking Tantangara (upper) and Talbingo (lower) reservoi ...

In recent years, soft robotics has surged in applications like wearables, drones, smart fabrics, and medical instruments. Due to their compliance, these devices excel in tasks demanding dexterity and adaptability, such as manipulation, locomotion, crash re ...

The teachings herein relate to hole transport compounds containing cyclobutyl moieties that can be made into organic hole conductors and hole transport materials. Furthermore, optoelectronic and photoelectrochemical devices, in particular photovoltaic devi ...

The objective of the AIDRES database is to support the EU-27's long-term goal of achieving a fully integrated industrial strategy. It serves as a valuable resource for the European Commission and industries, offering insights into the effectiveness, effici ...

An improved optical design for nanosecond diffuse reflectance (DR) spectroscopy is presented. The in-situ analysis of the electron back-reaction and dye regeneration processes in efficient opaque dye-sensitized solar cell devices (DSCs) was scrutinized for ...

Electric vehicles (EVs) are already part of today's reality and their number is expected to grow rapidly in the near future. A large-scale penetration of EVs will increase the power consumption during charging periods. Hence, the uncoordinated and random c ...

Energy conversion through sustainable means is essential to counter global warming and an urgent solution through a multidisciplinary approach is required. The temperature change stems from the emission of greenhouse gases largely contributed by burning fo ...

Heart failure is a cardiovascular disease affecting between 1 and 2% of the population of developed countries alone - more than 10 million people - with this number bound to increase due to the ageing of the population. This condition starts to develop its ...

Urea is widely used in agriculture, industry, and food, while it is also a potential fuel. Large-scale urea production relies on fossil fuels, thus there is a strong need for green urea given the increasing penetration of renewable energy sources. A potent ...

Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have gained tremendous attention owing to their promising photovoltaic performance, surpassing all the alternative technologies based on solution-processed materials. PSCs displaying record efficiencies contain hole transporti ...

High-performance membranes have emerged as an energy-efficient alternative to absorption-based postcombustion carbon capture. So far, the techno-economic analyses have been centered around the polymeric membranes. Recently, nanoporous single-layer graphene ...
