However, the concept of DOEs is still emerging, and practical implementation challenges remain unexplored. Therefore, this study conducts a thorough literature review on the current state of research regarding the application of DOEs in distribution networks. Initially, we introduce DOEs and proceed with an extensive exploration of existing literature across several subdomains, including envelope positioning, allocation mechanisms, control types, envelope behaviour, fairness and equity considerations, stakeholder coordination, network visibility, uncertainties, and communication aspects. Additionally, the study summarises ongoing industry trials and pilot projects involving DOEs. Moreover, it identifies implementation challenges such as public acceptance, regulatory frameworks, technological readiness, allocation fairness, constraint prediction, and network visibility. Finally, the paper concludes by proposing future research directions for effectively implementing DOEs in distribution networks.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":418,"journal":{"name":"Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews","volume":"217 ","pages":"Article 115696"},"PeriodicalIF":16.3,"publicationDate":"2025-04-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143821405","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Improvements in electrode materials and a better understanding of their working mechanisms have greatly enhanced the electrochemical performance of these batteries. Among the various options, transition metal chalcogenides (TMCs) have emerged as a focus of research because of their high capacity enabled by conversion or alloying reactions. However, these materials face challenges such as substantial volume changes and low electrical conductivity, which negatively affect their cycling stability and rate performance. The initial Coulombic efficiency (ICE) of anode materials plays a critical role in determining the energy density of both lithium-ion and sodium-ion batteries. In commercial lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), the low ICE of anodes is typically compensated by adding extra cathode material. However, because lithium-metal oxide cathodes have a lower specific capacity compared to anodes, a significant surplus of cathode material—about 10–15 % for graphite anodes—is required, which reduces the overall energy density. In sodium-ion batteries, the irreversible consumption of Na⁺ ions during the initial charge/discharge cycle, caused mainly by the formation of the solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) and other irreversible reactions, leads to a noticeable reduction in the capacity of the full cell. Improving the ICE of both anodes and cathodes is, therefore, essential for achieving high-performance sodium-ion batteries, particularly by enhancing the transport efficiency of Na⁺ ions. Low ICE remains a significant challenge in developing high-capacity anodes for practical sodium-ion batteries. This review examines the key factors behind low ICE in transition metal chalcogenides, including SEI formation due to electrolyte decomposition and the limited reversibility of the sodiation and desodiation processes. Then it will highlight innovative strategies to overcome these challenges, such as optimizing electrolytes and material structures, applying surface modifications and coatings, designing improved structures and morphologies, advancing surface engineering techniques, and developing polymetallic TMCs.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":418,"journal":{"name":"Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews","volume":"217 ","pages":"Article 115721"},"PeriodicalIF":16.3,"publicationDate":"2025-04-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143821404","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, urban characteristics impacts on UTCI have not yet been embedded in UTCI prediction research. Thus, this study investigated 30 cities worldwide with diverse urban characteristics using ML methods to forecast the UTCI and develop a nuanced index of the relationship between the UTCI and urban characteristics. Specifically, this integrates physics-based parametric modeling using urban features and outdoor thermal comfort modeling with Honeybee, combined with ML techniques such as LSTM, Gaussian Process Regression, RF, KNN, DT, and ANN.

Similarly, the ‘Green Space Ratio’ and ‘Average Height’ show a variety of impacts, indicating they affect UTCI estimations in different ways.

However, the cogeneration of heat and power leads to unwanted heat-power coupling and restricts the power peak-shaving flexibility. In this study, heat pump (HP) is used in designing highly efficient and heat-power decoupling retrofit systems. Three retrofit cases integrating absorption heat pump (AHP) and electric heat pump (EHP) are proposed. Their energy utilization efficiency, exergy efficiency, coal consumption rate of power generation with varying operating conditions, and heat-power decoupling characteristics are compared. Moreover, the techno-economic considering the repayment time and the benefits of peak shaving in the retrofit cases is investigated. A 600 MW coal-fired power plant is studied. Results show that three retrofit cases can enhance the heating capacity and achieve heat-power decoupling. The EHP-CHP system has the largest heating capacity of 1049 MW and the minimum power load of 150 MW at the heating load of 546 MW. In contrast, the AHP-CHP system can only decrease the minimum power load to 300 MW. The EHP-CHP coupled with the extracted exhaust steam system shows the highest energy utilization efficiency of 90.46 % at the maximum heating capacity, with the lowest coal consumption rate of power generation of 141.96 g (kW h)⁻¹ under 50 % THA, which is lower than the 153.27 g (kW h)⁻¹ the EHP-CHP system. However, the utilization of EHP decreases the exergy efficiency compared to AHP. The AHP-CHP system provides a maximum exergy efficiency of 36.46 % under the design heating load. In addition, the EHP-CHP coupled with the extracted exhaust steam retrofit case leads to a short repayment time of only 1.9 years. The EHP-CHP coupled with exhaust steam system proves to be a preferable energy-efficient, heat-power decoupling, and economic benefit-favorable solution.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":418,"journal":{"name":"Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews","volume":"216 ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":16.3,"publicationDate":"2025-04-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143815262","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It first conducts a systematic literature survey to identify and select the most relevant scientific studies published in the last two decades. It discusses the technical attributes of different WTT technologies. Then, the life cycle assessment (LCA) methodology determines the selected impact categories for comparative analysis. The WTT technologies are compared against each other using selected impact categories by harmonising their characterisation factor at 1 ton of waste tyre. Afterwards, it identifies the most eco-friendly WTT technology irrespective of technical and geographical boundary conditions, comparing the minimum and maximum characterisation values of each WTT technology. The comparative analysis reveals that pyrolysis is the most efficient WTT technology, exhibiting the lowest global warming potential (−1298 kgCO₂-eq/t), the highest resource recovery (−60 eco-points/t), and the best economic performance ($133/t profit).
