This study proposes a Digital Twin-inspired simulation framework to support renewable energy community (REC) planning. It integrates high-resolution smart-meter data, demographic filtering, and an AI-based N-HiTS forecasting model, applied …

Stefan Füchsl, Hubert Röder

This study proposes the Green Carbon Cycle (GCC) Approach, a new framework for assessing the climate impact of bioenergy and wood products. It integrates biogenic carbon assessment methods into a consistent LCA framework, using dynamic LCA …

Hasan Tutar

This paper empirically examines how eco-innovation capacity and energy transition in OECD economies affect domestic emission reductions and the offshoring of embodied carbon. It investigates whether emission cuts are achieved domestically o…

Xiaowang, Shen

This paper proposes a nine-dimensional coherent pricing framework for natural capital, integrating biodiversity risk premiums and a five-factor model. It applies the framework to five 2026 empirical cases (e.g., Gabon debt-for-nature, Chile…

Chunbo Zhang, Jinxin Wang, Shuo Wang +2

Assesses circular strategies for construction and demolition waste (CDW) in EU27+4 from 2010-2050. Continuing current trends could cut cumulative emissions by ~2 Gt CO2-eq, material use by ~24 Gt, and costs by ~€680 billion. Advanced circul…

Cordazzo M.

This paper empirically examines whether the EU Non-Financial Reporting Directive (NFRD) influences the value relevance of ESG disclosure for Italian firms. It analyzes the effect of mandatory disclosure on investor valuation, shedding light…

This study evaluates Fischer-Tropsch (FT) feedstocks derived from captured CO2 as steam cracker feedstocks. Hydrotreated FT naphtha increased ethylene yield by 48% and reduced CO2 intensity by 27% compared to fossil naphtha, demonstrating a…

Ti-Yao Zhou, Mingyuan Wang, Zheng. Li +3

This study develops an RBF network-based surrogate model for rapid evaluation of CO2-EOR and storage in mature oilfields, trained on 162 high-fidelity simulations. The RBF model outperforms DNN in accuracy (R2=0.895 for oil, 0.940 for stora…

Qi Ding, Xinping Xiao, Lizhong Yang +2

This paper proposes a dual-channel mixed-frequency forecasting method for carbon prices, integrating Informer-BiLSTM deep learning with a Grey-MIDAS framework. By combining data at different frequencies, it aims to capture complex carbon ma…

Yanhua Wu, Hongshuai Dai

This paper addresses volatility forecasting in the EU Emissions Trading System (EU ETS), highlighting that conventional jump detection methods are prone to false discoveries that undermine predictive performance. Applying a universal thresh…

This study analyzes nonlinear effects of digital technologies, clean energy transition, and industrial upgrading on climate change in five major robot-adopting economies (China, Japan, Germany, US, South Korea) using a multilayer neural net…

Marcus Gustafsson, Karin Eriksson, Vilma Håkansson +1

This paper proposes a methodology to integrate scope 4 (avoided environmental impact) into investment analysis to facilitate capital allocation toward renewable technologies. Using wind and solar power as examples, it quantifies scope 1-3 a…

Vincent Gagné, Vicky Therrien

This brief offers a practical framework for selecting and implementing sustainability reporting standards (GRI, IR, SASB) based on five factors: primary stakeholders, legitimacy/transparency, industry expectations, regulatory context, and i…

Radosveta Krasteva-Hristova

This study analyzes how the UK Big Four audit firms disclose safeguards for human oversight and accountability in AI-assisted work within their 2024 transparency reports. Developing an AI-Judgment Governance Disclosure Index (AI-JGDI) acros…

Javier Escrivá Asensio, Mariel Ribelles Beltrán, Jasmine Siu Lee Lam +2

This study evaluates barriers to e-methanol adoption in container shipping using TOPSIS-based MCDA. Economic barriers (insufficient market-based incentives, carbon pricing, high fuel price) rank highest, followed by technological barriers i…

Ziyang Zhang, Chao Gao, Yue Zhang +6

This study compares the life-cycle environmental impacts of NCM and LFP EV batteries in China. NCM has higher production-stage burdens; hydrometallurgy is the preferred recycling route. By 2060, production emissions are projected to drop by…

Yashika Raheja, Pallavi Gupta, Saurabh Singh +7

This review surveys recent advances in carbon capture and utilization (CCU), positioning CO2 as a renewable C1 feedstock for producing chemicals, fuels, polymers, and advanced materials. It examines catalytic, electrochemical, photochemical…

Hung Vo Thanh, Baehyun Min

This paper proposes a deep ensemble approach using digital rock images to predict time-resolved CO2 saturation in geological carbon storage. By quantifying uncertainty, it enhances reservoir behavior prediction and decision-making, improvin…

Qiang Xiao, Kai Yan, Chunxu Yang

This paper uses evolutionary game theory to analyze how carbon price fluctuations and carbon quota constraints affect cooperation and defection among firms in new energy vehicle (NEV) supply chains. It reveals how carbon pricing and quota s…
