A comparison of three transformation pathways towards a sustainable European society - An integrated analysis from an energy system perspective

Energy Strategy Reviews, 2020
An energy system transition in the European Union is required to meet the decarbonisation targets determined in the Paris Agreement. To realise this transition, a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions of at least 80% from 1990 levels by 2050 is required.

Deep decarbonisation of buildings energy services through demand and supply transformations in a 1.5°C scenario

Environmental Research Letters, 2021
Buildings energy consumption is one of the most important contributors to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions worldwide, responsible for 23% of energy-related CO _2 emissions.

Physics‐Constrained Constitutive Learning of Rate‐Limiting Timescales for Efficient Hydrogen‐Based Direct Reduction for Green Steel Making

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A conversion‐resolved constitutive framework is developed for the hydrogen‐based direct reduction of iron oxide pellets. Effective reaction and transport timescales are inferred directly from measured trajectories and mapped against operating conditions, pellet architecture, and composition. The analysis reveals how late‐stage transport control emerges

Physics‐Informed Machine Learning for Sustainable Alloy Design: Toward a Recyclable Unified Q&P Steel

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A physics‐informed property‐bridging framework links high‐throughput hardness screening to tensile performance in quenching and partitioning steels. By transferring metallurgically guided representations across properties, a single alloy composition is designed to achieve multiple strength grades through heat‐treatment tuning alone, offering a ...

ZrO2 Aerogel‐Supported Pd Nanoparticles for Photothermal CO2 Reduction

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Nanoparticle‐based aerogels are promising catalysts for photothermal reactions due to optical transparency, high surface area, and low thermal conductivity. Here, we present deposition of Pd nanoparticles on ZrO2 aerogel granules by a wet‐impregnation approach.

Investigating determinants of port decarbonisation implementation using the lens of Implementation Theory

Transport Economics and Management
This study argues that port decarbonisation is not only a technological challenge, but also an implementation issue. Hence, other determinants of implementation should be considered. Yet, the existing scant literature has never addressed this phenomenon.

Vacancy‐Driven Ni Exsolution in Prussian Blue Analogues Creates Cooperative Defect–Metal Sites for Alkaline Hydrogen Evolution

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Multimetal Prussian blue analogues (PBAs) are converted by low‐temperature Ar annealing into a cavity/CN‐vacancy architecture that triggers in situ Ni exsolution, creating dense Ni‐PBA interfacial motifs. These motifs optimize water dissociation and H* adsorption in alkaline media, delivering markedly accelerated HER kinetics and long‐term stability ...

Ranking of Mitigation Measures in Decarbonisation of International Shipping of Turkish Ports: A Fuzzy-Analytic Hierarchy Process Approach

SAGE Open
Decarbonisation of shipping is very crucial to achieve the International Maritime Organization (IMO)’s zero-carbon target by 2035 especially in middle-income economies with relatively limited budget constraints.
