However, conventional linear load models used in demand response programming often force data centers into a trade-off: sacrificing energy efficiency to ensure response quality, or vice versa. This paper presents a hierarchical load modeling framework that captures the optimal energy consumption characteristics of data centers to mitigate this conflict. At the foundational layer, a fine-grained, cross-system energy consumption model is developed to capture the intricate electrical-thermal-performance interactions among the computing, cooling, and power conditioning systems within the data center. Solving the energy optimization problem at this layer yields the optimal energy consumption characteristics of the data center. At the upper layer, these characteristics are analyzed and abstracted into a weakly nonlinear demand response-oriented load model, composed of four patterns that together form a piecewise function—two linear and two nonlinear regions—each corresponding to distinct workload conditions. The nonlinear relations are simplified from cubic to quadratic forms without significant loss of accuracy.

While most aging side reactions are largely influenced by current rate (C-rate), some reactions, such as aging-induced lithium plating, occur independently of C-rate and play a major role in battery aging. A rate-independent lithium plating has a profound impact on battery performance and longevity. To investigate this phenomenon, we conducted systematic aging tests including battery disassembly, scanning electron microscope imaging, and half-cell testing. Thermodynamic analysis revealed that aging is accompanied by the formation of a distinct open circuit voltage (OCV) plateau, which contracts over time as lithium deposition on the anode initially increases and then stabilizes. Additionally, we introduced an innovative phase-based scaling technique to segment and scale the anode's over-discharge potential curve. This technique enabled precise alignment of the electrode open circuit potential with battery OCV throughout its lifecycle, achieving a root mean square error below 10 mV under both plating and non-plating conditions. Furthermore, a strong correlation was identified between lithium plating and capacity degradation inflection point, underscoring its critical role in accelerating performance degradation.

This study evaluates Fischer-Tropsch liquid (FTL) production from biomass, focusing on the impact of partial electrification and carbon capture and storage (CCS) on efficiency and flexibility. Five configurations—ranging from a biomass-intensive base case to a fully electrified process—are simulated and assessed through techno-economic and GHG evaluations under fluctuating energy prices. Full electrification achieves the highest carbon efficiency, increasing carbon-to-liquid fuel conversion from 37 % to 91 %, but faces challenges due to high electricity demand (up to 2.5 MWh per MWh of fuel) and reliance on low-carbon grids. Partial electrification offers a cost-effective alternative, reducing production costs by up to 40 % compared to fully electrified cases, while maintaining a carbon efficiency of around 60 %. CCS enables net-negative emissions, though its viability hinges on sufficiently strong carbon pricing incentives. Compliance with sustainability mandates, such as Renewable Fuels of Non-Biological Origin (RFNBO) requirements, depends on access to decarbonized electricity. Overall, partially electrified BtL pathways enhance carbon utilization, reduce emissions, and offer resilience to market fluctuations. These pathways provide a promising balance of environmental and economic performance, outperforming both traditional BtL under high biomass prices and fully electrified e-fuels in terms of cost.

This paper proposes a novel online estimation method of inertia-supporting sustaining power boundary (SPB) of BESS based on model-data fusion method (MDFM). First, a series of experiments are conducted to investigate the impedance characteristics of battery under inertia-supporting condition, based on which a negative resistor-based equivalent circuit model (ECM) is developed to involve the nonlinear solid-phase diffusion effects of battery. Recognizing the nonlinear impact of state of charge (SOC) and discharge current rate on the negative impedance, a support vector machine (SVM) is applied to model the negative impedance, where the experimental results are input as the training data. Then, an MDFM-based method is proposed for online parameter estimation of the improved ECM, where the negative impedance is estimated by the SVM in real-time. Based on the ECM, the inertia-supporting SPB of BESS, constrained by the cut-off voltage, SOC and maximum current thresholds, is estimated online by a multi-constraint-based method. Finally, experiments are conducted to validate the MDFM-based ECM estimation method and the multi-constraint-based online SPB estimation method.

The experimental results on real datasets demonstrate that, compared with six mainstream reinforcement learning methods, SAC-EC reduces server energy consumption by 18.44 % and cooling energy consumption by 30.68 % on average.

These fluctuations give PEM electrolyzers the opportunity to reduce costs, as they can adapt their production rates rapidly. Moreover, typically slow temperature dynamics of electrolyzers increase their flexibility for effective operational management strategies. With a defined temperature trajectory during scheduling optimization, overload operation of the electrolyzer for a given amount of time is possible. However, the temperature dynamics are typically nonlinear. In conjunction with discrete on/off decisions, temperature dynamics lead to mixed-integer nonlinear optimization problems for scheduling that are highly challenging to solve in real time. In this study, we experimentally validate the dynamic ramping scheduling optimization method that precisely linearizes nonlinear temperature dynamics using a flatness-based coordinate transformation. Utilizing the available information from the dynamic scheduling optimization a 100 kW PEM electrolyzer was operated by studying three stack temperature control methods, rejecting disturbances from load variations. Identifying a suitable control method was essential to guarantee the desired temperature tracking performance of the optimization. Our experiments show a 3.8 % cost reduction compared to the benchmark without overload operation. The designed PEM electrolyzer model also deviated only 0.6 % in costs from the experiment. Simulative scaling of PEM electrolysis to 2 MW demonstrates even higher cost reductions with the dynamic ramping method, as the larger electrolyzer has slower dynamics.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":246,"journal":{"name":"Applied Energy","volume":"393 ","pages":"Article 126014"},"PeriodicalIF":10.1,"publicationDate":"2025-05-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144068912","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
