Day-ahead Clearing Method for High-proportion Hydropower Electricity Market by ZHANG Yang, SHEN Jianjian, ZHAO Qihao, XIE Mengfei, JIA Zebin

“…How to handle the complex characteristics of cascade hydropower and solve the competitive spillage and power shortage problem is one of the key issues in the clearing of the high-proportion hydropower day-ahead spot electricity market.Therefore,combined with the project in Yunnan,this paper proposes a day-ahead clearing method for the high-proportion hydropower electricity market.In this method,the hydraulic constraints in the clearing model are replaced by the post-hydraulic check.Combined with the essential causes of competitive spillage and power shortage problems,the paper constructs a conditional constraint set including cascaded hydropower linkage constraints and spillage control constraints,and corresponding trigger conditions respectively.Moreover,the constraint boundaries are dynamically updated to gradually reduce competitive spillage and power shortage in the iterative solution procedure.A settlement compensation strategy is finally designed to provide corresponding benefits for plants involved in solving the spillage.The proposed method is validated by a real-world hydropower-dominated provincial system ranking second in China.The results show that competitive spillage and power shortage can be avoided or reduced substantially.It is demonstrated that this method meets the requirements of practicability and timeliness for day-ahead spot clearing of hydropower-dominated provincial power systems.…”

Limited-Stop High-Frequency Service Design: Reducing In-Vehicle Congestion by Andrés Felipe García Albarracín, Daniel Jaramillo-Ramírez

“…Given a fixed-size fleet (fixed costs) and a fixed demand on a very high-frequency bus corridor, we propose an algorithm to minimize the peak load profile, combining the usual All-Stop (AS) and one additional LS service, finding the set of stops for the LS service and the fleet split. The strategy is proved in a set of statistically generated corridors, showing average capacity reductions > 20% at a cost of a marginal travel time increase. …”

A Better Model for Socio-economic Governance? by Bryn Jones, Peter Nisbet

“…This article asks particularly whether firms can apply CSR policies which maintain or improve the stakeholder interests of employment and socio-environmental integrity while simultaneously pursuing operational policies shaped by financialised business strategies. Although firms have advanced CSR policies, these are shown to have little impact on the rationalisation of their UK operations by the global shareholder-value strategies of the biggest global food multinationals. …”

Visual Analysis of Coordinated Evaluation of Water Resources Utilization and Economic Development in China by WU Dan, XIANG Xiaoqian

“…Given the literature on the coordinated evaluation of water resources utilization and economic development in China from 1994 to 2020 in the core database of CNKI,the paper uses the visualization tool CiteSpace 5.7.R2 and the scientometrics method to analyze literature characteristics,as well as research focuses and their evolution,and delves into the evolution of the research on this field.The research reveals that according to the distribution of publication time and journals,the number of articles in this field shows an S-shaped curve,going through the starting,growing,and developing stages,and the research focuses are closely combined with national policy on water conservancy.In terms of the distribution of cooperation between universities and research institutions and the characteristics of cooperation among scholars,the phenomenon of extensive dispersion with localized concentrations is presented.The knowledge graphs of keyword networks demonstrate that the terms including “water resources”,“coordinated development”,“water resources carrying capacity”,“social economy”,“index system”,“industrial structure”,and “spatiotemporal coupling” have become popular in this field in the past decade.According to the strategy map of keywords,research themes represented by keywords such as “water footprint”,“urbanization”,“water and soil resources”,and “water environment carrying capacity” are developed into emerging research focuses.The time zone maps of keywords indicate that the application of the water-driven effect and its decoupling evaluation have become a new field of academic research.…”
