In the context of technological change, the influence of innovative entrants on incumbents is considered a major driving force. Using global patent data, we analyze this influence for the case of the transition from combustion engine vehicles towards alternative technology vehicles (ATVs)....

Replacing traditional fossil fuel vehicles with innovative zero-emission vehicles for the transport in cities is one of the major tactics to achieve the UK government 2020 target of cutting emission. We are developing an agent-based simulation model to study the possible impact of different...

This paper presents a Genetic Algorithms (GAs) for integration of various types of Distributed Generations (DGs), Static Synchronous Compensator (STATCOM) and Plug-in-Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEVs) with different static load models (DSLMs) such as LM-1, LM-2, LM-3, LM-4 and LM-5, respectively...

Provision of charging stations is requisite infrastructure supporting the adoption of electric vehicles in any city and country. To avoid duplications and wastage of resources, only one charging station is available at each parking lot, which meant that only one provider is assigned for each...
