What Drives the Efficiency of Hard Coal Fuelled Electricity Generation? An Empirical Assessment [PDF]
The efficiency of electricity generation in hard coal fired power plants varies considerably from country to country and over time. These differences occur both between developing and developed countries and between industrialised nations.

ABSTRACT Hard carbon (HC) is currently the predominant anode material for sodium‐ion batteries; however, its practical application is still limited by insufficient initial Coulombic efficiency (ICE) and plateau capacity. Meanwhile, conventional HC production relies on energy‐intensive carbonization processes with considerable carbon emissions. Here, an

Boosting Sodium Storage Activity and Kinetics of Hard Carbon by Remodeling Oxygen Chemistry
A surface oxygen remodeling strategy is proposed to finely furnish the pseudographitic structure of hard carbon with rich closed pores and expanded interlayer spacings. Accordingly, the sodiation reactivity and kinetics are greatly reinforced to afford an elevated capacity of 360 mAh g−1 and outstanding rate capability of 225 mAh g−1 at 2 A g−1 ...
