However, the water electrolysis process, crucial for producing green hydrogen, often experiences frequent shutdowns that can damage membranes and catalysts, diminishing both efficiency and longevity. The variability of wind power further complicates this, necessitating advanced control strategies to maintain system stability. Traditional rule-based control methods often struggle to effectively handle real-time power fluctuations and predict future wind conditions, limiting their adaptability. This study introduces an innovative rule-based control method that includes a 'target battery level' to balance reliability and productivity. Utilizing a bi-level optimization framework, it co-optimizes the system design and target battery level to create a more adaptable and efficient solution. Case studies in six regions reveal that the levelized cost of hydrogen is realistically 6–20% higher than scenarios assuming perfect wind foresight. Moreover, this new rule-based control strategy, aiming to maintain a target battery level above 90%, consistently outperforms traditional methods in terms of reliability and economic viability. This approach offers a robust and economically feasible solution for enhancing sustainable green hydrogen production under real-world conditions, addressing key challenges related to system stability and operational efficiency.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":418,"journal":{"name":"Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews","volume":"212 ","pages":"Article 115459"},"PeriodicalIF":16.3,"publicationDate":"2025-02-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143332623","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}

The synergy effect of Li and sulfur, with specific capacity of 1670 mAh g⁻¹, positions Li–S batteries (LSBs) as a highly promising candidate for the next generation of high-energy density batteries. Nonetheless, the full commercialization of LSBs is dependent upon overcoming a range of shortcomings that such batteries possess. One of the most formidable challenges is the pervasive issue of Li dendrite nucleation and growth on the anode surface, caused by the instability of the solid electrolyte interphase layer. Numerous efforts have been made so far to control the nucleation and growth of Li dendrites, with the establishment of a stable artificial solid electrolyte interphase (ASEI) layer proving to be one of the most effective approaches. This review provides a focused, comprehensive analysis of ASEI layers, addressing a critical gap in existing literature, which often broadly covers Li anode challenges without specifically targeting ASEI-related strategies. It explores recent advancements in ASEI fabrication methods, including dip coating, drop casting, roll pressing, magnetron sputtering, and other innovative techniques, with a thorough discussion of each method's strengths, limitations, and key influencing factors. Furthermore, the review examines the scalability, performance, and effectiveness of ASEI layers under real-world conditions, such as high sulfur loading, limited electrolyte volumes, and carbonate-based electrolytes, while assessing their impact on electrochemical performance across varied battery configurations.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":418,"journal":{"name":"Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews","volume":"212 ","pages":"Article 115453"},"PeriodicalIF":16.3,"publicationDate":"2025-02-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143332631","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, the overarching aim of this study is to investigate critical factors and generate actionable insights that can inform the development of effective strategies for enhancing thermal resilience in urban environments. An integrative review approach was conducted combining a scoping review and a bibliometric analysis. The principal findings highlight the significance of green infrastructure, urban canyons, and building stock scenarios in designing comfortable microclimates. Behavioural adaptation for access to the design scenarios plays an important role in achieving thermal comfort. Key driving forces influencing design scenarios are identified, including social vulnerability protection and economic resource feasibility in the social system, air pollutant reduction and biodiversity protection in the ecological system, and cooling effectiveness and energy efficiency in technological systems. Stakeholder and expert involvement are necessary to develop interventions and strategies for strengthening thermal resilience. The proposed frameworks attempt to provide a comprehensive understanding of human-urban interaction and adaptation mechanisms and offer a general approach to developing interventions and strategies for thermal resilience.

Moreover, idealised soil temperature models employed in numerical simulations fail to consider disturbances from aboveground and underground built environments. Consequently, this results in inaccuracies when predicting underground spaces' physical environment and energy consumption. First, this study systematically reviews aboveground microclimate and underground heat islands, summarising correlation mechanisms and key design highlights.

Despite the promise of ME to ensure these goals, it has not been realized yet due to significant industrial adoption barriers caused by inefficiencies in operation and maintenance (O&amp;M) policies. O&amp;M of ME systems has unique dynamics separating itself from other energy systems, which are well-studied in the literature. While investments in ME assets are constantly increasing, there is limited research on making the best of these assets. This study presents an integrated framework for inspection and maintenance (I&amp;M) designed to enhance the utilization and reliability of the assets in ME systems. It combines (i) predictive analytics methodology that uses real-time sensor data to predict future degradation levels, with (ii) a novel I&amp;M optimization model that takes into account the uncertainties associated with the degradation levels of ME assets. The objective is to minimize costs arising from maintenance, inspection, and crew routing while maximizing asset availability and utilization of asset lifetime. The proposed framework employs observation errors to capture uncertainty in asset degradation and a unique chance constraint approach to limit failure risks associated with those errors. Chance constraints are embedded in the model by the use of sample average approximation. The model makes use of constraints to control maintenance and failure statuses and coordinates them with crew routing decisions so that opportunistic I&amp;M schedules are situated. Key contributions of the proposed framework are the integration of maintenance and inspection decisions, crew routing (affected by the accessibility conditions), and chance constraints. The tradeoff between failure risks, availability, and lifetime utilization is modeled as a function of uncertainties driven by observation errors and degradation trajectories. A comprehensive set of experiments is conducted using a representative ME system with 20 assets to demonstrate the advantages of the proposed framework over traditional policies. This study aligns with UN’s SDG 7 (Affordable and Clean Energy) by advancing ME systems through optimal I&amp;M, directly contributing to cleaner, more reliable energy sources, SDG 13 (Climate Action) by promoting renewable energy adoption, and SDG 9 (Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure) through innovative predictive analytics and optimization frameworks.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":418,"journal":{"name":"Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews","volume":"212 ","pages":"Article 115275"},"PeriodicalIF":16.3,"publicationDate":"2025-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143332585","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}
