“…From the results in the last column, we can see that an increase of ST by 1% can reduce the ET by approximately 0.0683%, which implies that developing China's ST will effectively accelerate the process of ET elimination. Schorn et al (2021) and Guo et al (2021) have also confirmed our primary findings. As an intensive transportation mode, ST is essential for breaking the extensive energy-based vicious circle of development by replacing more efficient energy utilization with traditional low-efficiency energy utilization.…”

Purpose Mitigating the energy trilemma (ET) is of great importance for dealing with climate change and realizing carbon neutrality. To this end, effectively assessing the level of the ET is essential. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the current situation and the spatio-temporal changes of the ET in the whole of China. Design/methodology/approach Moreover, based on provincial-level data in China for the period 2002–2017, and by using the dynamic estimation model, we aim to determine the specific marginal impacts of smart transportation (ST) on the ET, and the possible channels through which ST works on the ET. Findings We thus present the following findings: (1) The performance of both ET and its three pillars is gradually improving in China. Moreover, the situation tends to vary dramatically among various regions and provinces, and the gap between the best performers and the worst is large. (2) ST plays a significant role in inhibiting the ET, a finding that remains robust after a series of tests. And (3) the ET eradication effect of ST is caused mainly by improved innovation, advanced technical efficiency, and the increasing energy scale. Originality/value Accordingly, we put forward some policy recommendations to help tackle ET and accelerate ST in China.

“…Establishing hydrogen markets can exploit the potential of hydrogen supply and consumption and maximize social welfare [37]. However, unlike the electricity markets, hydrogen markets are still at the developing stage [38]. Several studies have been reported on the hydrogen markets [38], hydrogenelectricity markets [37], [39], [40], and hydrogen-electricitygas markets [41].…”

The proliferation of renewable energy (RE) brings tremendous challenges to integrated energy systems (IESs). Converting RE into hydrogen, one of the cleanest energy carriers, provides an appealing alternative for decarbonized IESs. Among the various hydrogen applications, blending hydrogen into natural gas systems is already applicable. However, the disparate hydrogen physical properties trigger concerns about hydrogen integration. This paper investigates the integration of hydrogen into the IESs, focusing on blending hydrogen into natural gas systems. The literature on hydrogen modeling, control, operation, planning, and markets are first reviewed. Based on the convex combination methods, a power-to-hydrogen-heat-methane (P2HHM) model with unit commitment is proposed. The steadystate and dynamic gas flow models with the explicit consideration of hydrogen effects are then proposed. Two applications are given based on the proposed hydrogen modeling. A Wasserstein metricbased distributionally robust optimal operation model is proposed first based on the developed P2HHM and gas flow models. Then a sequential Monte Carlo simulation-based reliability assessment model is formulated to analyze the effects of hydrogen physical properties and hydrogen fractions on the optimal operation and reliability of the IESs. Numerical simulations are conducted to analyze the integration of hydrogen and verify the effectiveness of the proposed model.

“…The establishment of appropriate transportation methods is an important factor when socially implementing hydrogen energy [13,14]. Carbon materials can safely store hydrogen [15,16]; in particular, lithium (Li)-doped graphene and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have been used as effective storage materials [17,18].…”

Carbon materials, such as graphene nanoflakes, carbon nanotubes, and fullerene, can be widely used to store hydrogen, and doping these materials with lithium (Li) generally increases their H2-storage densities. Unfortunately, Li is expensive; therefore, alternative metals are required to realize a hydrogen-based society. Sodium (Na) is an inexpensive element with chemical properties that are similar to those of lithium. In this study, we used density functional theory to systematically investigate how hydrogen molecules interact with Na-doped graphene nanoflakes. A graphene nanoflake (GR) was modeled by a large polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon composed of 37 benzene rings, with GR-Na-(H2)n and GR-Na+-(H2)n (n = 0–12) clusters used as hydrogen storage systems. Data obtained for the Na system were compared with those of the Li system. The single-H2 GR-Li and GR-Na systems (n = 1) exhibited binding energies (per H2 molecule) of 3.83 and 2.72 kcal/mol, respectively, revealing that the Li system has a high hydrogen-storage ability. This relationship is reversed from n = 4 onwards; the Na systems exhibited larger or similar binding energies for n = 4–12 than the Li-systems. The present study strongly suggests that Na can be used as an alternative metal to Li in H2-storage applications. The H2-storage mechanism in the Na system is also discussed based on the calculated results.
