Energy is an important driving force for the social and economic development. However, with the development of the industrial revolution and the world economy, the energy crisis is becoming more and more serious, and with the increasing greenhouse…
Gas leakage is a major problem which causes vulnerable accidents in the domestic areas, residential premises, industrial sector, etc. Among many other applications, home Security is one of the major concerns due to the increase usage of LPG…
In recent years, Microgrids (MGs), a widely acceptable smaller-scale energy infrastructure, are proved to be valuable in their resilience and reliability specially during extreme disasters that cause blackouts and major grid instabilities and being…
This paper is based on the premise that the principal purpose of science and technological development should be the well-being of society in harmony with environmental sustainability. Vaclav Smil [1] argues “commonly used measures of energy use – be…
Petroleum consumption is an important factor for any country's economic and social growth. In India, petroleum consumption is increasing rapidly. India holds the third rank in oil consumption after the USA and China. One of the important sectors of…
Renewable energy sources (RESs) are considered as the key component towards the decarbonization of power network. Nevertheless, the lack of controllability and the unpredictable behaviour of the output power from most of the RES technologies…
Due to technological advancement and growth around the globe, the global energy demand is growing continuously. The natural resources of energy such as fossil fuels are getting depleted day by day along with a high growth rate of energy consumption…
Currently, researchers and practitioners are more careful about the usage of fossil energy sources due to its increasing adverse effect on energy security and global warming and trying to reduce fossil fuel consumption. Like some other developing…
Energy stations are generally established in economically developed urban areas, where incremental coal combustion is limited due to a shortage of primary energy. The main ways of renewable energy generation are waste power, biomass power, wind…
Means and modes of transport in urban environments are changing. The emergence of new means of personal transport, such as e-scooters or e-bikes, combined with new concepts such as `vehicle sharing' are changing urban transport. A greater social…
This research work aims to provide detailed feasibility, a techno-economic evaluation, and energy management of stand-alone hybrid photovoltaic-diesel-battery (PV/DG/B) system. The proposed system can be applied to supply a specific load that is far…
Renewable energy sources (RESs) are considered as the key component towards the decarbonization of power network. Nevertheless, the lack of controllability and the unpredictable behaviour of the output power from most of the RES technologies…
Different attempts have been made so far all over the world for a cleaner and greener environment. Waste management is the need of an hour. To make the country a better place to live in, it should be made smarter. To view the locality a litter free…
The CO2 emission and greenhouse gasses due to the energy sources that are being used today such as coal, oil, and natural gases being pumped into the air is causing the rise of sea levels, increasing the temperature and extreme weathering conditions.…
Serious roadside pollution in congested urban areas is an ongoing problem in many densely populated cities. While the current control measures on traffic pollution have reduced particulate matter, new solutions by emerging vehicular technologies can…
This paper aimed to evaluate three different types of city buses’ life cycle, including the manufacturing, shipping, and operation phases. On this basis, this study is applying both a hybrid life cycle sustainability assessment (LCSA) and…
The main aim of the paper is to develop a shared shuttle-based system in order to reduce congestion in cities and thereby reduce carbon dioxide emissions. There are multiple modules in this system but to summarize there exist two databases one…
Deeper decarbonization of the transport sector requires building a wide coverage electric vehicle charging network that can meet driver's mobility patterns and refueling habits in a seamless manner. Currently, major market players mainly deploy…
Transportation system in any urban area is a non linear system comprises of mixture of two wheeler, cars and heavy vehicles such as trucks, buses etc. Also, due to rise in count of vehicles traffic congestion being the very severe problem arises…
Energy consumption and its environmental impact are now among the most challenging problems in most developing cities. The common sources of energy used as the fuel in transportation sector include gasoline, diesel, natural gas, propane, biofuels,…
Controlling and defensive the higher air greatness has gotten one in everything about first imperative occasions in different creating and metropolitan districts at the present. The greatness of air is adversely contacting collectible to the…
Nowadays, most of the taxi drivers have become users of the relocation recommendation service offered by online ride-hailing platforms (e.g., Uber and Didi Chuxing), which could oftentimes lead drivers to places with profitable orders. At the same…
Traffic congestion in Lebanon is a growing issue with no remedy insight. Traffic is so severe that an 80 km road may take between two to four hours to cross. This is mainly due to the old and poor planning techniques that are applied in the design,…
To achieve net-zero in the transportation sector, there is a need to deploy public electric vehicle (EV) fast chargers to boost customer confidence. Currently, charge point operators and EV manufacturers focus on deploying chargers to cover highway…
In India, many forms of public transportation are convenient for the users, amidst them buses play a key role. An average person in a city roughly spends thirty minutes for bus arrival every single day that merely adds up eight hours a week. Energy…
Public transport plays quite an essential role in the life of a common man. In metropolitan cities, people try to avoid road-based public transport due to reasons like increasing road congestion, air pollution, energy, and oil consumption, and most…
