Price-based demand response is a key strategy for managing electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure, yet existing approaches face two critical challenges: (1) reliance on simulated traffic data that may not accurately represent real-world charging patterns, and (2) the unpredictability of user behavior challenge algorithms based solely on charging demand and electricity prices. To address these two challenges, this paper proposes a novel, iterative two-step framework that leverages real-world charging data. First, we develop an LSTM with self-attention model to accurately predict charging demand by capturing intricate user behavior patterns. Second, we introduce TransA3C, a novel algorithm that integrates a Transformer into the Asynchronous Advantage Actor–Critic (A3C) framework to optimize dynamic service fee. The core of our approach is a dynamic feedback loop: the predicted demand guides the TransA3C pricing decisions, and the resulting service fee is then used as an input for subsequent demand predictions. This iterative process allows the system to continuously adapt to market fluctuations and user behavior. Experimental results, validated on a large-scale, real-world dataset from a city in China, where the proposed dynamic pricing significantly increases the profit and utilization rate of the charging stations. Furthermore, the proposed framework is scalable and transferable to other urban charging networks with fine-tuning, highlighting its broad practical applicability and potential for widespread deployment in EV charging operations.
基于价格的需求响应是管理电动汽车(EV)充电基础设施的关键策略,但现有方法面临两个关键挑战:(1)依赖于可能无法准确代表真实充电模式的模拟交通数据;(2)仅基于充电需求和电价的用户行为挑战算法的不可预测性。为了解决这两个挑战,本文提出了一个新颖的、迭代的两步框架,利用现实世界的充电数据。首先,我们开发了一个具有自关注的LSTM模型,通过捕获复杂的用户行为模式来准确预测充电需求。其次,我们引入了一种新的算法TransA3C,该算法将Transformer集成到异步优势Actor-Critic (A3C)框架中,以优化动态服务费用。我们方法的核心是一个动态反馈循环:预测的需求指导TransA3C的定价决策,然后产生的服务费被用作后续需求预测的输入。这种迭代过程允许系统不断适应市场波动和用户行为。在中国一个城市的大规模真实数据集上验证了实验结果,其中提出的动态定价显着提高了充电站的利润和利用率。此外,所提出的框架具有可扩展性,可通过微调转移到其他城市充电网络,突出了其广泛的实用性和在电动汽车充电操作中广泛部署的潜力。

This study examines the interaction between system quality, information quality, and perceived suitability of price in shaping customer outcomes such as value, brand image, satisfaction, and repurchase intentions within the ride-sharing industry. It specifically explores the dual moderating role of perceived suitability of price, analyzing how it strengthens and weakens the effects of system and information quality on brand image. Grounded in expectation-confirmation theory (ECT) and perceived value theory, the study utilizes Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) to analyze data collected from 509 ride-sharing users in Indonesia. Findings indicate that system and information quality enhance customer value and brand image, thereby boosting satisfaction and repurchase intentions. Notably, the perceived suitability of price was found to have a dual moderating effect: it enhances the positive impact of system quality on brand image and unexpectedly weakens the influence of information quality on brand image. These findings challenge the typical assumption that favorable price perceptions enhance brand evaluations, offering new insights for aligning service improvements with pricing strategies on digital platforms. In conclusion, these results provide actionable insights for ride-sharing platforms to optimize digital service delivery and pricing strategies, thereby enhancing customer satisfaction and loyalty, which support the development of more sustainable transportation solutions in the ride-sharing sector.
本研究考察了系统质量、信息质量和价格的感知适用性之间的相互作用,这些相互作用影响了乘车共享行业的客户结果,如价值、品牌形象、满意度和再购买意愿。具体探讨了价格感知适宜性的双重调节作用,分析了它如何增强和削弱系统和信息质量对品牌形象的影响。本研究以期望-确认理论(ECT)和感知价值理论为基础,利用结构方程模型(SEM)对印度尼西亚509名拼车用户收集的数据进行分析。研究发现,制度与资讯品质可提升顾客价值与品牌形象,进而提升满意度与再购买意愿。值得注意的是,我们发现价格的感知适宜性具有双重调节作用:它增强了系统质量对品牌形象的正向影响,出乎意料地削弱了信息质量对品牌形象的影响。这些研究结果挑战了“良好的价格感知会提高品牌评价”的传统假设,为将服务改进与数字平台上的定价策略相结合提供了新的见解。综上所述,这些结果为拼车平台优化数字服务交付和定价策略提供了可行的见解,从而提高了客户满意度和忠诚度,从而支持了拼车行业更可持续的交通解决方案的开发。

The transportation sector is highly sensitive to climatic conditions, and while climate change is expected to affect its productivity, systematic quantitative evidence of such historical impacts remains limited. Utilizing panel data spanning 2000 to 2022 of the transportation industry in 278 Chinese cities, this paper employs a robust econometric model to scrutinize the weather's influence on the transportation industry's total factor productivity. The findings reveal an inverted U-shaped effect resulting from temperature changes on productivity. Higher temperatures prompt decision-makers to adjust labor and capital inputs, reducing total factor productivity. They also disrupt travel patterns, affecting passenger and freight volumes, and alter capital utilization efficiency, further impacting productivity. The research also emphasizes that climate change disproportionately affects regions with relatively backward economic development stages or higher temperatures. Offering evidence on climate change's impact on the transportation industry productivity can provide policymakers with an objective understanding of its vulnerability to climate-related challenges.
交通运输部门对气候条件高度敏感,虽然气候变化预计会影响其生产力,但这种历史影响的系统定量证据仍然有限。本文利用2000年至2022年中国278个城市交通运输行业的面板数据,采用稳健的计量模型来考察天气对交通运输行业全要素生产率的影响。研究结果揭示了温度变化对生产率的倒u型影响。高温促使决策者调整劳动力和资本投入,降低全要素生产率。它们还扰乱旅行模式,影响客运量和货运量,改变资本利用效率,进一步影响生产力。该研究还强调,气候变化对经济发展阶段相对落后或气温较高的地区的影响更大。提供气候变化对交通运输业生产力影响的证据,可以使政策制定者客观地了解其对气候相关挑战的脆弱性。

In the context of the “dual carbon” targets of China, effectively reducing carbon emissions in the road freight transportation sector is crucial. Carbon emission trading has emerged as a cost-effective strategy for mitigating carbon emissions, particularly in the context of road freight transport. Currently, the system design of carbon emission trading for road freight transport industry is still unknown. To fill this gap, this study presents a comprehensive policy framework tailored for China's road freight transport sector. The framework includes key components such as data collection and verification processes for carbon emissions, the establishment and distribution of carbon allowances, regulatory mechanisms for carbon emission trading, and an integrated reward and punishment system. Furthermore, the study employs case studies and scenario analyses to examine the operational dynamics of the carbon trading system in road freight transportation. The findings indicate that, to meet compliance requirements and generate additional revenue, freight vehicle operators are incentivized to reduce carbon emissions either by decreasing vehicle miles travelled or by investing in vehicles with lower energy consumption. The purpose of this paper was to provide the theoretical basis for the effective facilitation of carbon emission trading system for China's road freight transport.
在中国“双碳”目标的背景下,有效降低公路货运行业的碳排放至关重要。碳排放交易已成为减少碳排放的一种具有成本效益的战略,特别是在公路货运方面。目前,道路货运业碳排放权交易的制度设计尚不明确。为了填补这一空白,本研究提出了为中国公路货运行业量身定制的综合政策框架。该框架包括碳排放的数据收集和核查程序、碳配额的建立和分配、碳排放交易的监管机制以及综合奖惩制度等关键组成部分。此外,本研究采用个案研究和情景分析来检视公路货运碳交易系统的运作动态。研究结果表明,为了满足合规要求并产生额外收入,货运车辆运营商受到激励,通过减少车辆行驶里程或投资于能耗更低的车辆来减少碳排放。本文旨在为中国道路货物运输碳排放权交易制度的有效便利化提供理论依据。

E-shopper innovativeness and parcel locker adoption: Mediating roles of social influence and trust, and the moderating impact of transaction costs 网络购物者创新与储物柜采用:社会影响与信任的中介作用,以及交易成本的调节作用

This study examines the effect of e-shopper innovativeness (i.e., consumers' tendency to adopt new ideas and technologies before others) on parcel locker (PL) adoption in an emerging market context (Turkey). It introduces a conceptual model incorporating social influence and trust as mediating variables, and transaction costs as a moderating factor. Based on a survey of 363 online shoppers in Sakarya, Turkey, structural equation modeling and PROCESS analyses reveal that innovativeness significantly enhances PL adoption both directly and through increased trust and social influence. However, high perceived transaction costs are found to weaken these effects. The final model explains 76 % of the variance in PL adoption intention. Theoretically, our findings extend the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM)/Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) based frameworks by incorporating individual innovativeness into the technology acceptance model and highlighting the mediating roles of trust and social influence. Integrating a transaction cost perspective further provides a more comprehensive view of PL adoption drivers and barriers. Practically, the study suggests that e-commerce and logistics providers should target innovative consumers as early adopters, leverage peer influence, build trust in PL systems, and minimize perceived transaction costs to accelerate parcel locker adoption.
本研究考察了在新兴市场背景下(土耳其),电子购物者的创新性(即消费者倾向于在其他人之前采用新想法和新技术)对包裹储物柜(PL)采用的影响。引入了以社会影响和信任为中介变量,交易成本为调节因子的概念模型。基于对土耳其Sakarya的363名在线购物者的调查,结构方程模型和过程分析表明,创新性通过直接和通过增加信任和社会影响力显着提高了PL的采用。然而,高感知交易成本削弱了这些影响。最后的模型解释了PL采用意图中76%的差异。从理论上讲,我们的研究结果扩展了基于技术接受模型(TAM)/技术接受与使用统一理论(UTAUT)的框架,将个人创新纳入技术接受模型,并强调信任和社会影响的中介作用。集成交易成本视角进一步提供了一个更全面的PL采用驱动因素和障碍的视图。实际上,该研究表明,电子商务和物流提供商应该将创新消费者作为早期采用者,利用同行影响力,建立对物流系统的信任,并最大限度地降低感知交易成本,以加速包裹寄存柜的采用。

This study investigates the mechanisms through which high-speed rail (HSR) networks facilitate intercity collaborative innovation by agglomeration externalities and network externalities within a unified “agglomeration-network externalities” framework. From the agglomeration perspective, we analyze how HSR access in node cities enhances the quantity, quality, and diversity of intercity innovation cooperation. From the network perspective, we identify four key intercity effects—labor pooling, knowledge spillover, talent mobility, and service sharing—while examining how urban network characteristics and intercity boundary segmentation heterogeneously shape HSR-driven innovation collaboration. Based on the comprehensive perspective of agglomeration-network externalities, we further propose that the HSR network drives intercity collaborative innovation through three mechanisms: efficiency enhancement, global spillover, and synergistic amplification effects. Empirical results demonstrate that HSR significantly improves the scale and quality of intercity collaborative innovation in nodal cities, primarily through knowledge agglomeration, talent concentration, and capital accumulation, though these effects diminish sequentially. However, HSR also reduces average partnership intensity due to frequent restructuring of collaborative ties and knowledge-base convergence. Network analysis reveals that HSR strengthens intercity innovation through four decreasingly potent mechanisms: talent mobility (strongest), labor pooling, service sharing, and knowledge spillovers (weakest). These effects exhibit core-periphery heterogeneity, with the strongest impacts observed between core network cities. Boundary effects follow a hierarchical breakdown pattern, with policy barriers being most resistant, followed by administrative, cultural, and geographical boundaries. Finally, structural optimization of HSR commuting networks amplifies the three key agglomeration-network effects, with synergistic amplification demonstrating the strongest influence, followed by global spillovers and efficiency gains.These findings contribute to the literature by (1) advancing a dual-space theoretical framework for transport infrastructure and innovation diffusion, and (2) providing empirical evidence on the heterogeneous spatial effects of HSR networks. The study offers policy insights for regional innovation planning and HSR network optimization.
本研究在统一的“集聚-网络外部性”框架下,通过集聚外部性和网络外部性考察高铁网络促进城际协同创新的机制。从集聚视角分析节点城市高铁接入如何提升城际创新合作的数量、质量和多样性。从网络视角出发,我们确定了劳动力汇集、知识溢出、人才流动和服务共享这四个关键城际效应,同时研究了城市网络特征和城际边界分割如何异质地塑造高铁驱动的创新协作。基于集聚网络外部性的综合视角,我们进一步提出高铁网络通过效率提升、全球溢出和协同放大效应三种机制驱动城际协同创新。实证结果表明,高铁显著提升了节点城市城际协同创新的规模和质量,主要是通过知识集聚、人才集聚和资本积累,但这些效应依次递减。然而,高铁也降低了平均伙伴关系强度,由于频繁重组的合作关系和知识库的收敛。网络分析表明,高铁通过人才流动(最强)、劳动力汇集、服务共享和知识溢出(最弱)四种逐渐减弱的机制促进城际创新。这些影响表现出核心与外围的异质性,在核心网络城市之间的影响最大。边界效应遵循层级分解模式,政策障碍最具抵抗力,其次是行政、文化和地理边界。最后,高铁通勤网络的结构优化放大了三个关键的集聚网络效应,其中协同效应放大的影响最大,其次是全球溢出效应和效率增益效应。这些发现对文献的贡献在于:(1)提出了交通基础设施与创新扩散的双空间理论框架;(2)为高铁网络的异质性空间效应提供了实证证据。研究结果为区域创新规划和高铁网络优化提供了政策启示。

Urban transportation in Vietnam, dominated by fossil fuel-powered motorbikes, is causing severe air pollution, contributing to climate change, and posing a threat to public health. In response to these challenges, promoting the transition from traditional motorbikes to electric motorcycles (EMs) is considered a sustainable transportation solution, aligning with the global trend toward green development. However, to expand market share and enhance the acceptance of electric motorcycles, a deeper understanding of consumer perception and behavior is essential. This study aims to develop and test a research model based on the cognitive–affective–conative framework. Data collected from 506 conventional motorbike users in Vietnam were analyzed using the SEM method. The study employs a second-order model, grounded in the cognitive–affective–conative framework, to evaluate the relationship between perceived value and perceived cost with the intention to use electric motorcycles, mediated by the role of anticipated emotions. The findings clarify the role of perceived value and perceived cost in shaping customers' anticipated emotions, which significantly influence their intention to switch to electric motorcycles. These insights not only provide valuable information for manufacturers and policymakers but also contribute to shaping development and marketing strategies for electric motorcycles in the future.
越南的城市交通以化石燃料驱动的摩托车为主,造成了严重的空气污染,加剧了气候变化,并对公众健康构成威胁。为了应对这些挑战,推动从传统摩托车向电动摩托车(EMs)的过渡被认为是一种可持续的交通解决方案,与全球绿色发展的趋势相一致。然而,要扩大市场份额,提高电动摩托车的接受度,更深入地了解消费者的认知和行为是必不可少的。本研究旨在建立并检验一个基于认知-情感-意蕴框架的研究模型。从越南506名传统摩托车使用者收集的数据使用扫描电镜方法进行分析。本研究采用基于认知-情感-意向框架的二阶模型,在预期情绪的中介作用下,评估电动摩托车使用意向的感知价值和感知成本之间的关系。研究结果明确了感知价值和感知成本在塑造消费者预期情绪中的作用,这显著影响了他们转向电动摩托车的意愿。这些见解不仅为制造商和政策制定者提供了有价值的信息,而且有助于制定未来电动摩托车的开发和营销策略。

This study examines the effects of China's The Transit Metropolis Pilot (TMP) program on carbon emissions across 273 cities from 2006 to 2019, a quasi-natural experimental design and a staged difference-in-differences model are used. This study draws several noteworthy conclusions: (1) The TMP program has proven effective in directly reducing carbon emissions in China. In comparison to non-pilot cities, the pilots have achieved a commendable 13.4 % reduction in carbon emission intensity and an 8.3 % decrease in total carbon emissions. (2) Notably, the program's impact is more pronounced in larger cities and in the western regions of the country. (3) TMP has a lasting effect on carbon emissions, persisting for one to five years after the pilot implementation. And (4) The TMP program affects emissions indirectly through ‘Avoid-Shift-Improve’ mechanisms, which include restrictions on car purchase/use, enhancements in public transport, investments in urban technology, and the adoption of new energy vehicles.
本研究采用准自然实验设计和分阶段差中差模型,考察了2006 - 2019年中国273个城市的交通大都市试点(TMP)计划对碳排放的影响。本研究得出了几个值得注意的结论:(1)TMP计划在中国直接减少碳排放方面已被证明是有效的。与非试点城市相比,试点城市的碳排放强度降低了13.4%,碳排放总量降低了8.3%。值得注意的是,该计划的影响在大城市和西部地区更为明显。(3) TMP对碳排放的影响具有持续性,在试点实施后持续1 ~ 5年。(4) TMP计划通过“避免-改变-改善”机制间接影响排放,包括限制汽车购买/使用、加强公共交通、投资城市技术和采用新能源汽车。
