Electric vehicles (EVs) are expected to provide substantial potential for demand response (DR) and, thus, the integration of renewable electricity sources in the future energy system. However, DR can also have noticeable negative consequences, so-called avalanche effects. We systematically...

Transport is an integral component of the energy system, and in Sub-Saharan Africa the demand for transport has been increasing due in part to population growth and economic development. To demonstrate the extent of this increased demand, emissions from transport in Africa grew by 84% over 6...

According to the Paris Agreement, the European energy system transition is essential to achieve GHG emission reduction targets set by the EU and limit the growth of global temperatures. Investigating the role of emerging mitigation technologies and their uncertainties together with the different...

Due to the ongoing expansion of renewable energies and the increasing energy demand of household consumers, e.g., due to the electrification of the mobility and heating sectors, grid bottlenecks and voltage band violations in low-voltage grids in Germany are expected to occur more frequently in...

Decarbonising the transport sector in the Global South presents an opportunity to contribute towards achieving net-zero by mid-century. Several studies have modelled different pathways to decarbonise the transport system, but the consensus is unclear due to the heterogeneous nature of transport...

In order to reduce national and global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, many countries worldwide have committed themselves to a more sustainable development of their transport sector. Promoting the use of electrical vehicles (EVs) rather than combustion engine cars is one political strategy to...

Environmental pollution and the global scarcity of fossil fuels are becoming worse. The study empirically quantifies the causal link between the rise in new energy vehicle sales and the exemption of vehicle purchase tax on such cars, using a difference-in-differences specification to exploit...

Energy management in Micro Grids (MG) has become increasingly difficult as stochastic Renewable Energy Sources (RES) and Electric Vehicles (EV) have become more prevalent. Even more challenging is autonomous MG operation with RES since prompt frequency control is required. We provide an...

The majority of transport decarbonisation pathways rely on the parallel electrification of the majority of modes of surface transport and significant expansion in renewable electricity generation. Whilst the integration of these two previously siloed sectors - electricity and transport - can...
