<title>Abstract</title> A primary motivation of this paper is to draw together, in one source, information on the nature, extent and performance of Australia's evolving toll road network which is currently spread across many disparate published and unpublished sources. This paper provides key information (e.g....

<title>Abstract</title> The use of fossil fuels in transportation is an important topic as a result of growing concerns over global warming. Automobile petrol demand has been of particular interest to researchers and policy-makers, given that the automobile is a major contributor to the enhanced greenhouse...

The quality of on-line measured operational data is usually not satisfactory for the performance monitoring of coal-fired power plants, due to the low accuracy of measuring instrument. Data reconciliation is a data preprocessing technique which can improve the accuracy of measured data through...

The interconnection between a renewable power generation facility and a power grid poses challenges because of volatility and intermittent characteristics. Energy storage is one of the best solutions for this problem. This paper presents an integrated energy storage system (ESS) based on...

Power plant on-line measured operational data inevitably contain random and gross errors. Data reconciliation is a data preprocessing technique, which makes use of redundant measured data to reduce the effect of random errors, and identify gross errors together with a statistical test method....

We present a map of the transformation of energy in China as a Sankey diagram. After a review of previous work, and a statement of methodology, our main work has been the identification, evaluation, and treatment of appropriate data sources. This data is used to construct the Sankey diagram, in...

This paper analyzes the technical, economic, and environmental characteristics of different pathways for supplying hydrogen to vehicles in China. A life-cycle accounting of “well-to-tank” hydrogen delivery for 11 different infrastructure pathways reveals different relative economic costs and...

Power plant on-line measured operational data are often corrupted with random and gross errors. The data reconciliation method can reduce the impact of random errors by adjusting redundant measurements to satisfy system constraints and detect gross errors together with a statistical test method....

This study analyzes the material utilization flow, including element carbon (C) and hydrogen (H), together with the energy saving ratio to quantify the material utilization and energy conversion in a coal-based polygeneration system producing methanol and electricity. The C utilization ratio and...

This paper reviews 20 published congestion pricing studies with a focus on the dimensions of the stated preference or opinion survey, especially the type of charging regime and the structure of the charge. The effectiveness and acceptability of different charging regimes, as well as behavioural...
