Abstract:

With the advancement of China's "dual-carbon" strategic goals and the accelerated development of the construction of a strong transportation network, the deep integration of transportation and energy has become a vital measure to enhance new productivity in the transportation systems. Driven by the wave of digitalization, technologies such as the internet of things (IoT),big data, and artificial intelligence (AI) offer new opportunities for the integration of transportation and energy. In this study, how digital technologies empower transport-energy integration is analysed from three aspects: technological pathways, application scenarios, and future prospects. The current state of transport-energy integration is reviewed and the advantages and challenges of digital technology applications in this field are explored. Leveraging typical cases such as wind-solar-storage-charge integrated intelligent highways, the technological pathways and demonstration applications of digital empowerment of transport-energy are expounded. The future prospects of digital technologies in transport-energy integration are envisioned and strategic recommendations in areas such as government policies, standard systems, and business models are offered. This study aims to provide reference for promoting the digitalization process of transportation and energy integration in China.

Key words: digital technology, intelligent transportation, smart grid, transport-energy integration, big data, internet of things, artificial intelligence, blockchain, cloud computing, edge computing
