Abstract The emergence of smart grids in India is propelled by an intricate interaction of market dynamics, regulatory structures, and stakeholder obligations. This study analyzes the primary factors that are driving the widespread use of smart grid technologies and outlines the specific roles and obligations of different stakeholders, such as government entities, utility companies, technology suppliers, and consumers. Government activities and regulations are crucial in facilitating the implementation of smart grid technology by offering financial incentives, regulatory assistance, and strategic guidance. Utility firms have the responsibility of implementing and integrating smart grid infrastructure, with an emphasis More >

Abstract Public-private partnerships (PPPs) have been used by governments around the world to procure and construct infrastructural amenities. It relies on private sector expertise and funding to achieve this lofty objective. However, given the uncertainties of project management, transparency, accountability, and expropriation, this phenomenon has gained tremendous attention in recent years due to the important role it plays in curbing infrastructural deficits globally. Interestingly, the reasonable benefit distribution scheme in a PPP project is related to the behavior decision-making of the government and social capital, as well as the performance of the project. In this paper,… More >

Abstract China has implemented both quantitative and policy incentives for renewable energy development since 2019 and is currently in the policy transition stage. The implementation of renewable portfolio standards (RPSs) is difficult due to the interests of multiple stakeholders, including power generation enterprises, power grid companies, power users, local governments, and the central government. Based on China’s RPS policy and power system reform documents, this research sorted out the core game decision problems of China’s renewable energy industry and established a conceptual game decision model of the renewable energy industry from the perspective of local governments,… More >

Abstract Most software systems have different stakeholders with a variety of concerns. The process of collecting requirements from a large number of stakeholders is vital but challenging. We propose an efficient, automatic approach to collecting requirements from different stakeholders’ responses to a specific question. We use natural language processing techniques to get the stakeholder response that represents most other stakeholders’ responses. This study improves existing practices in three ways: Firstly, it reduces the human effort needed to collect the requirements; secondly, it reduces the time required to carry out this task with a large number of More >
