Journal Article
Giampieri, A., Ling-Chin, J., Ma, Z., Smallbone, A., & Roskilly, A. (2020). A review of the current automotive manufacturing practice from an energy perspective. Applied Energy, 261, Article 114074. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.apenergy.2019.114074

The automotive industry is facing on-going challenges to improve the sustainability of its manufacturing processes and vehicle emissions due to economic, environmental, marketability and policy concerns. This review aims to evaluate steps that could... Read More about A review of the current automotive manufacturing practice from an energy perspective.

Techno-economic analysis of the thermal energy saving options for high-voltage direct current interconnectors (2019)
Journal Article
Giampieri, A., Ma, Z., Chin, J. L., Smallbone, A., Lyons, P., Khan, I., Hemphill, S., Roskilly, A. P., & Bao, H. (2019). Techno-economic analysis of the thermal energy saving options for high-voltage direct current interconnectors. Applied Energy, 247, 60-77. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.apenergy.2019.04.003

High-voltage direct current interconnection stations are increasingly used for long-distance electricity transport worldwide, due to efficiency and economic reasons. The identification and evaluation of cost-effective waste heat sources appropriate f...
