This paper analyzes the strategic equivalence of Renewable Portfolio Standards (RPS) and Capacity Remuneration Mechanisms (CRM) combined with carbon emissions trading (CET) using a Stackelberg duopoly model. It endogenizes grid-side storage…

Mousumi Ghosh, Manvendra Pratap Singh

This paper examines how transition risk affects bank stability, focusing on the moderating role of climate governance. It considers lending to hard-to-abate sectors and suggests that robust climate governance can mitigate adverse effects on…

This study evaluates chemical looping combustion (CLC) and gasification (CLG) of a plastic-rich waste-derived fuel at 1 MWth pilot scale using ilmenite as oxygen carrier. CLC achieved high CO2 capture (~95%) but only about one-third of fuel…

Renata Karkowska

This chapter clarifies climate risk taxonomy and transmission channels into financial markets, then analyzes how ESG pressures from regulation, disclosure, and legal constraints shape investor behavior. It examines pricing of climate risks,…

Chiara Macchi

This contribution analyzes Article 22 of the CSDDD, which before its removal by the 'Omnibus I' proposal required large companies and financial institutions to adopt transition plans for climate change mitigation aligned with the Paris Agre…

A randomized controlled trial (N=3,454) in the US, Switzerland, and China tests four distributive designs of a flying surcharge and a flying budget. Respondents are markedly more willing to pay more than to fly less, with personal fairness …

Wang, Yichuan, Song, Suying

Analyzing U.S. GHGRP Subpart HH landfill methane reports, this study shows that reliance on unmeasured default methods varies by ownership, with public firms using defaults less. Gas collection installation is associated with a 45% decline …

Sacchi, Romain, Daioglou, Vassilis, Bauer, Christian

This package provides scripts and data to reproduce Figure 1 of an Environmental Research Letters Perspective arguing that net-zero product claims should disclose the resource demands of carbon dioxide removal. It includes 17 prospective da…

Filippo Busato, Marco Noro

This paper examines how the evolution and country-specific differences of electricity emission factors can lead to over- or underestimation of CO2 savings from electrification-based decarbonization measures. Using a high-temperature heat pu…

Alikhani P.

This paper proposes a multi-objective optimization method for electric vehicle (EV) charging schedules, considering market coupling in north-western Europe. It analyzes trade-offs between cost reduction and grid load leveling, and evaluates…
