The paper analyzes Uzbekistan's oil and gas economy, proposing a strategy for sustainable transition. Using 2019–2024 data and policy review, it highlights challenges of hydrocarbon dependence and aging infrastructure, recommending economic…

Yuchan Ahn

This study performs a life cycle assessment of plastic waste-to-hydrogen systems with varying CO2 utilization ratios. It reveals a non-linear relationship: environmental impacts decrease at moderate utilization (40-50%) but reverse at highe…

Muhammad Irfan

This study examines the impact of supply chain digitization (SCD) on inclusive urban energy development using China's Supply Chain Innovation and Application Pilot Policy (SCIAPP) as a quasi-natural experiment. Difference-in-differences ana…

Grayson Badgley, Freya Chay

This study evaluates the financial additionality of 74 pig manure offset projects in China, finding that 31% of anticipated credits (5.95 million tons) are likely non-additional because they ignore revenues from energy generation. The analy…
