This study proposes a decentralized hybrid local energy market (HLEM) that integrates peer-to-peer trading and community-based market mechanisms to facilitate both intra- and inter-community energy exchanges across different regions in Japan. The model incorporates market participants’ risk attributes, shaped by demand elasticity, into the decision-making process to evaluate market participation and trading behavior. A decentralized optimization framework is used in the model, utilizing the Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers, which guarantees both computational efficiency and feasibility. Furthermore, Jain’s Fairness Index serves to assess fairness and the level of participant engagement within the market. The framework is validated, using real-time data collected from the Japan Electric Power Exchange market, taking into account regional differences in demand trends, price responsiveness, and the availability of renewable energy. The results indicate that local generation has a considerable effect on market pricing systems, influencing demand patterns. Tokyo and Chubu achieve grid independence six and five times, with average price reductions of 21 percent and 14 percent, respectively. In contrast, Tohoku achieves grid independence for the one-time slot, while Kyushu remains entirely dependent on external resources, resulting in the lowest price reductions. Additionally, equity among participants is enhanced with the availability of local generation via HLEM, particularly in areas where demand flexibility is greater. The findings emphasize the capability of hybrid market frameworks to improve energy adaptability, lessen dependence on the upstream grid, and foster fair energy distribution.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":37131,"journal":{"name":"Energy Conversion and Management-X","volume":"27 ","pages":"Article 101075"},"PeriodicalIF":7.1,"publicationDate":"2025-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144134019","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

More specifically, an evaluation of the prospects and global market scenario for EVs is done. Many countries are accelerating the adoption of EVs to minimise environmental degradation and reliance on oil. The introduction of EVs, specifically battery electric vehicle (BEV), is viewed as a remedy to the energy problem and environmental concerns. This article presents a thorough examination of the technical evolution of EVs and technologies to support their adoption. The key technologies for electric motors, control, batteries, charging technology and EV control and charging infrastructure (CI) are summarised. This is a review study that focuses on certain key technologies in this regard, including smart charging, vehicle-to-grid (V2G), EV charging using photovoltaic panels (PV) and EV on-road charging. Smart charging of EVs is intended to increase EV and renewable energy penetration, reduce charging costs and improve grid infrastructure utilisation. This study also discusses technological problems and technologies to improve the safety, reliability and efficiency of EVs. The study found that the key technologies play vital roles in EV sustainability and reliability. The studies revealed that the most significant drawback of EVs is their autonomy. Charging infrastructure for electric vehicles is critical for enabling a smooth transition to e-mobility. To promote the use of electrified transportation, an extensive network of charging stations and power management systems must be built in a user-friendly setting.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":37131,"journal":{"name":"Energy Conversion and Management-X","volume":"27 ","pages":"Article 101069"},"PeriodicalIF":7.1,"publicationDate":"2025-05-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144099082","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) are one of the most promising technologies, with efficiencies of over 60 % in energy conversion and zero-emission operation. However, commercialization is limited by issues with water and thermal management, particularly in the flow field design, which has direct implications for performance, durability, and efficiency. Prior research has determined that optimized flow field geometries can improve PEMFC performance through improved reactant distribution and water removal. However, most of the research has only been concerned with the anode side or with simplified models, with little quantitative validation based on experimentation. This work overcomes these limitations by carrying out an extensive three-dimensional computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation of six different cathode-side flow field geometries labeled A to F on a PEMFC with an active area of 25 cm<sup>2</sup>. It was verified experimentally with a polarization curve measurement and temperature test, having less than 4 % error in pressure drop and &lt; 6 % accuracy in temperature prediction. The greatest peak power density of 0.85 W cm<sup>−2</sup> of optimized Design E, or 47.08 % of reference Design A 0.58 W cm<sup>−2</sup>, pertained to considered designs. Design E also showed a reduction in water saturation of 30 % and an oxygen concentration of 0.212 mol/m<sup>3</sup> at the exit of the cathode, 18.5 % higher than that for Design A. It also exhibited the lowest pressure drop, ∼ 800 Pa, and the highest maximum uniformity of temperature and current density distribution uniformity index of 0.79. Other optimized geometries, B, C, D, and F, achieved mean power density improvements of 12.60 % and 20.00 % with various trade-offs in pressure drop and water management. Experimental results quantitatively demonstrate that the intentional optimization of cathode flow field geometry can significantly enhance PEMFC efficiency, water management, and thermal homogeneity. The validated CFD method is a reliable tool for future design and scale-up optimization of PEMFC systems, especially in automotive, aerospace, and portable power applications. This research adds a comprehensive performance matrix that can be used to inform the design of next-generation, high-efficiency, corrosion-resistant PEMFC flow fields.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":37131,"journal":{"name":"Energy Conversion and Management-X","volume":"27 ","pages":"Article 101071"},"PeriodicalIF":7.1,"publicationDate":"2025-05-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144099622","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To address these challenges, this study aims to develop and evaluate two advanced thermochemical pathways- Sorption-Enhanced Chemical Looping Gasification (SE-CLG) and Pyrolysis-Integrated SE-CLG (Pyro-SE-CLG) for tri-generation (hydrogen, heat, and electricity) from Norwegian Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) and Industrial Solid Waste (ISW), while improving waste management efficiency and environmental performance. Experimental characterization of typical Norwegian ISW (HHV = 17.43  MJ/kg; LHV = 16.22  MJ/kg) revealed substantial energy potential. From literature, heavy metal presence in this type of waste and oxygen carrier (OC) deactivation with ash interaction prompted the development of the Pyro-SE-CLG model to enhance feedstock flexibility, facilitate heavy metal removal, and align waste utilization with national decarbonization goals. Both models were simulated using Aspen Plus and assessed via a 4-E (Energy, Exergy, Environment, and Economic) analysis. The SE-CLG maximized hydrogen yield at (170.6  kg H<sub>2</sub>/ton MSW; 142.8  kg H<sub>2</sub>/ton ISW), energy efficiency (up to 69.11 %), exergy efficiency (up to 57.29 %), and hot water recovery (up to 4,300 L/ton MSW) for district heating applications. Pyro-SE-CLG, while yielding 16–20 % less hydrogen and requiring five times more oxygen carrier (OC), enabled complete heavy metal removal using 200  kg of 1  M HCl per ton ISW and improved OC reusability, thereby reducing operational costs. Sensitivity analysis identified optimal hydrogen production at 800 °C (fuel reactor) and 200 °C (WGSR), with Ca<sub>2</sub>Fe<sub>2</sub>O<sub>5</sub> ensuring stable performance across both configurations. Environmental analysis highlighted SE-CLG(MSW) as the most favorable option, achieving 25.55 % lower global warming potential (GWP) and 66.80 % lower acidification potential (AP) than ISW, while Pyro-SE-CLG reduced GWP during pyrolysis but exhibited higher post-PSA emissions due to lower CO<sub>2</sub> capture efficiency. Economically, Pyro-SE-CLG(ISW) achieved the lowest hydrogen sale price (3.32 USD/kg), whereas SE-CLG(ISW) recorded the highest sustainability index (SI = 2.34).
