Abstract Accurate time- and site-specific forecasts of streamflow reservoir inflow are important in effective hydropower management scheduling. Traditionally, autoregressive moving-average (ARMA) models have been used modelling water resource time series as a standard representation stochastic series. Recently, artificial neural network (ANN) approaches proven to be efficient when applied hydrological prediction. In this paper, the support vector machine (SVM) is presented promising method...
Cities are hotspots of socio-economic activities and greenhouse gas emissions. The aim this study was to extend the research range urban carbon footprint (CF) cover emissions embodied in products traded among regions intra-city sectors. Using Xiamen City as a case, total urban-related were evaluated, flows sectors tracked. Then five CF accountings including purely geographic accounting (PGA), community-wide infrastructure (CIF), consumption-based (CBF) methods, well newly defined...
A global multiregional input-output (MRIO) model was built for eight Chinese cities to track their carbon flows. For in-depth understanding of urban footprint from the perspectives production, consumption, and trade balance, four kinds footprints redefined measurement indicators were calculated. From supply chain, inflows Mainland China larger than outflows, while outflows European, principal North American countries East Asia much inflows. With rapid urbanization China, Construction largest...
The building sector is one of the largest contributors to greenhouse gas emission in urban areas. Quantitative assessment carbon footprint buildings needed advance research and policy debates on reduction sustainable architectural planning. This study develops a calculation methodology for accounting by taking Xiamen as case study. Also, scenario analysis performed examining potential. It shown that increased from 8.95 million tons 2005 13.57 2009 Xiamen, with an average annual growth rate...
In the context of increasing urbanization and climate change globally, urban energy systems (UES) planning needs adequate consideration change, particularly to ensure supply during extreme weather events (EWE) such as heatwaves, floods, typhoons. Here we propose a two-layer modeling framework for UES considering impact EWE. An application typical coastal city Xiamen, China reveals that deploying storage (i.e., pumped hydro battery) offers significant flexibility critical demand is met...
On the way toward Net Zero 2050, UK government set 2035 target by slashing 78 % emissions compared to 1990-level. To help understand how an electrified local energy system could contribute this and associated cost, we develop a whole-system based optimization (LEO) model. The model captures series of state-of-the-art technologies including building fabric retrofit, battery storage, electro-mobility, electro-heating, demand response, distributed renewable, Peer-to-Peer (P2P) trading. And...
