Hydrogen's growing role in the transition towards climate-neutral energy systems necessitates structured modeling frameworks. Existing gas network models, largely developed for natural gas, fail to capture hydrogen systems distinct…
As one of the most pressing challenges of the 21st century, global climate change demands a host of changes across four critical energy infrastructures: the electric grid, the natural gas system, the oil system, and the coal system.…
The imminent advent of large-scale green hydrogen (H2) production raises the central question of which of the two options, transporting "green" molecules, or transporting "green" electrons, is the most cost-effective one. This paper…
We are concerned with the simulation and optimization of large-scale gas pipeline systems in an error-controlled environment. The gas flow dynamics is locally approximated by sufficiently accurate physical models taken from a hierarchy of…
The energy transition will lead to an imbalance in electric power generation and demand along the north-south axis of Germany. To manage this imbalance, the transmission system operators proposed a network development plan that requires…
Future pathways for Great Britain's energy system decarbonisation have highlighted the importance of low-carbon hydrogen as an energy carrier and demand flexibility support. However, the potential application within various sectors…
The increasing complexity of energy systems due to sector coupling and decarbonization calls for unified modeling frameworks that capture the physical and structural interactions between electricity, gas, and heat networks. This paper…
Accurate flood forecasting remains a challenge for water-resource management, as it demands modeling of local, time-varying runoff drivers (e.g., rainfall-induced peaks, baseflow trends) and complex spatial interactions across a river…
The on-wing engine performance is difficult to track for thermodynamic models because of its inaccurate component maps, and also difficult for data driven methods for their over-fitting to measurement errors. So, we propose a thermodynamic…
As the underground infrastructure systems of cities age, maintenance and repair become an increasing concern. Cities face difficulties in planning maintenance, predicting and responding to infrastructure related issues, and in realizing…
At least a quarter of the warming that the Earth is experiencing today is due to anthropogenic methane emissions. There are multiple satellites in orbit and planned for launch in the next few years which can detect and quantify these…
In recent years, the monitoring and study of natural hazards have gained significant attention, particularly due to climate change, which exacerbates incidents like floods, droughts, storm surges, and landslides. Together with the constant…
The curtailment of renewable energy is more frequently observed as the renewable penetration levels are rising rapidly in modern power systems. It is a waste of free and green renewable energy and implies current power grids are unable to…
Smart grid interoperability is the means to achieve the twin green and digital transition but re-mains heterogeneous and fragmented to date. This work presents the first ideas and corner-stones of an Interoperability Roadmap for the Energy…
Here we uncover the load and fault-tolerant backbones of the trans-European gas pipeline network. Combining topological data with information on inter-country flows, we estimate the global load of the network and its tolerance to failures.…
We present an economic optimization problem for allocating the flow of natural gas and hydrogen blends through a large-scale transportation pipeline network. Physical flow of the gas mixture is modeled using a steady-state relation between…
Hedges and other linear woody features provide valuable ecosystem services, particularly within intensively managed agricultural landscapes. They are key elements for climate adaptation and biodiversity amongst others not only due to a…
Fine-grained semantic segmentation of transmission-corridor point clouds is fundamental for intelligent power-line inspection. However, current progress is limited by realistic data scarcity and the difficulty of modeling global corridor…
The growing reliance of electric power systems on gas-fired generation to balance intermittent sources of renewable energy has increased the variation and volume of flows through natural gas transmission pipelines. Adapting pipeline…
