Increasing accessibility by public transport benefits local economy: the effect of a new metro line in Rome
This study investigates the economic impact of Metro C, a major expansion of Rome's metro system. Using a difference-in-differences (DID) approach within a multiplicative framework, the research quantifies the impact of increased accessibility on local economic activities. The results show a statistically significant rise in the number of economic activities in areas affected by the new line. A mild decline in economic diversity suggests the emergence of spatial clustering of similar activities…

Optimal Coordination of Local Flexibility from Electric Vehicles with Social Impact Consideration
The integration of renewable energy sources (RES) and the convergence of transport electrification, creates a significant challenge for distribution network management e.g. voltage and frequency violations, particularly in rural and remote areas. This paper investigates how smart charging of electric vehicles (EVs) can help reduce renewable energy curtailment and alleviate stress on local distribution networks. We implement a customised AC Optimal Power Flow (AC OPF) formulation which integrate…
