A Hybrid Dynamic/Steady-State Tool With Protection Simulation for Cascading-Outage Analysis of Extreme Events in Power Systems

IEEE Access
Large portions of the electrical power grid are susceptible to component failures that when combined with certain other factors (extreme events), could cause cascading outages. Some of these outages can be severe enough to trigger brownouts and blackouts.

Practical Methodology for Developing Visions for Carbon‐Neutral Cities and Communities

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cities and communities play important roles in sustainable development and climate change mitigation. This study presents a novel framework for developing carbon‐neutral visions for cities and communities. We established five “principles,” investigated options encompassing four parameters (management, goal setting, actions, and quantification),

Power supply disruptions deter electric vehicle adoption in cities in China

Nature Communications
Electrification plays a crucial role in deep decarbonization. However, electrification and power infrastructure can cause mutual challenges. We use nationwide power outage and electric vehicle adoption data in China to provide empirical evidence on how ...

Mapping near-real-time power outages from social media

International Journal of Digital Earth, 2019
Social media, including Twitter, has become an important source for disaster response. Yet most studies focus on a very limited amount of geotagged data (approximately 1% of all tweets) while discarding a rich body of data that contains location ...

How Aligned Are Citizen Preferences With the 15‐Minute Cities Paradigm? An International Survey and K‐Means Clustering Study

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates how citizens' mobility preferences align with the principles of the 15‐Minute City (15mC), addressing three research questions: what access times and transport modes citizens consider acceptable, whether mobility preference can be clustered, and which services are perceived incompatible with the 15mC.

Unravelling Cascading Phenomena in Sociotechnical Systems: A Systematic Review and Modelling Framework

Systems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article investigates the characterization of cascading phenomena within sociotechnical systems through a systematic review and the development of a conceptual modelling framework. Cascading phenomena, often described using terms such as ripple effect, domino effect, cascading failure, risk propagation and cascading effect, capture the far‐

Perfluorohexanone for Clean Fire Suppression: Mechanisms, System Design, Applications, and Future Directions

Safety Science and Technology, EarlyView.
Driven by halon and high GWP agent phase out, perfluorohexanone is increasingly deployed in enclosures such as data centers, marine machinery spaces, and industrial process lines. This review summarizes application performance, discharge and distribution design, material compatibility, and byproduct control and maps practical gaps for large volume and ...

A Preventive Static Security Control Strategy for Distribution Networks Based on Phase Shifting Transformer Loop‐Closing Devices

IEEJ Transactions on Electrical and Electronic Engineering, EarlyView.
As the share of renewable energy in the energy mix continues to increase, the penetration of distributed renewable generation in distribution networks is also rising steadily. Loop‐closing operation provides an effective means to enhance renewable energy accommodation across different grid partitions.

Impact of Technological Innovation, Environmental Policy, and Policy Inclusion on Renewable Energy Adoption in Sub‐Sahara Africa

Thunderbird International Business Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the factors influencing renewable energy consumption and renewable electricity in Sub‐Sahara Africa (SSA) using the Lewbel 2SLS approach, panel quantile regression and Driscoll and Kraay estimator. It focuses on a panel dataset covering 41 countries from 1998 to 2020.
