This paper analyzes the technical, economic, and organizational feasibility of renewable heat supply in low-density residential areas, using Vienna as a case study. Collective solutions like low-temperature heat networks are technically rob…

Hadiza M.G.N.

This paper examines the relationship between green finance, energy transition, and biodiversity conservation across African countries using dynamic analysis. While the abstract is unavailable, the title suggests a broad empirical study rele…

Afshar M.S.

This paper analyzes the impact of digital technology and clean energy on sustainable environments, considering the mediating role of green finance and the moderating effect of institutional quality. It sits at the intersection of environmen…

Wang H.

This paper proposes a bi-level collaborative optimization model for electricity-carbon integrated demand response in energy-intensive industries, considering source-load interaction. The model aims to achieve both cost reduction and carbon …

Sharp D.

This paper proposes a participatory framework for community-engaged data governance, using the Monash Net Zero Precinct as a case study. It examines how such approaches can contribute to achieving net-zero targets.

T. Aiken, J. Kwasny, M. Soutsos +2

This study demonstrates factory production of alkali-activated precast concrete products in the UK and Malaysia. Using ground glass cullet to produce sodium silicate activator reduces cost to match ordinary Portland cement while significant…
