This paper reviews the negative environmental and soil impacts of crop residue burning and explores sustainable alternatives that turn residues into resources. Focusing on soil-plant-environment interactions, it highlights how effective res…

Tasniva Rahman Mumu, Andrew Peacock

This paper argues that the transition to sustainable energy systems is a social process, emphasizing community energy initiatives for just and inclusive net-zero goals. It proposes a community-centered engagement framework focusing on energ…

This study develops a spatially informed techno-economic and resilience assessment framework for hydrogen-biogas microgrids, applied to Robeson County, NC. Biogas integration reduces net present cost by 28.4%, and hydrogen-inclusive configu…

Liu M, Wu H, Qin L +3

This paper proposes a PV power forecasting framework robust to missing data, integrating imputation, hybrid deep learning (TCN, BiGRU, attention), and improved Golden Jackal optimization. Evaluated on 15-minute grid-connected PV data, it ac…

This paper proposes a fairness-constrained potential game for peer-to-peer energy trading in microgrids, embedding a capacity-weighted fairness regularization into prosumer utility functions. It preserves an exact potential structure over f…

Krastev B, Krasteva-Hristova R

This study examines whether green bond market development is associated with circular material use and resource productivity in EU-27 countries using panel data from 2014-2024. Despite robust econometric methods, no statistically significan…

Pothin F

Using staggered difference-in-differences on SBTi and CDP data (2015-2023), this study finds that pledging firms expand their measurement boundary: within four years they report 2.5 more Scope 3 categories, lifting reported Scope 3 emission…

CINAR U

Proposes a false-alarm-controlled protocol to fairly compare gas indices and deep learning for early detection of coal spontaneous combustion. In simulation and field data from three mines, Graham's index fails to detect fires at false-alar…

Griffths. Paul Jakob, Moorhead, Avery, Brinkerink, Maarten +1

This study quantifies material demand for U.S. electricity decarbonization from 2027-2050 across multiple scenarios, finding peak demand in the late 2020s-2030s. It identifies supply-chain vulnerabilities for tellurium, dysprosium, and othe…

Aheiev, Dmytro

A benchmark dataset of 409 US CCGT plants with measured annual performance (net efficiency median 46.2%, CO2 intensity, capacity factor) from EPA eGRID2022, joined to fleet structure (vintage, HRSG, CHP, etc.) with strict entity matching. P…

Song, Aoye, Zheng, Yuyu, Dang, Zhaohui +2

This dataset provides input data, models, and output results for a study on renewable energy accessibility and just energy transition through E-mobility intra-city and inter-city energy sharing in China. It supports analysis of renewable en…

Doucette, Doug

This paper argues that standard DSGE models ignore the structural stability of the climate system. Introducing the concept of a spectral gap, it shows emissions degrade stability and proposes a correction to carbon pricing. Simulations sugg…

Gomez Gutierrez, Luania

This book examines how organizations measure, disclose, govern, and assure sustainability information, starting from the premise that ESG information can be accurate yet insufficient for decision-making. It covers major frameworks including…

Yiwen Lv, Junjun Wu, Zhen Han +7

This study introduces a co-processing method for steel slag with blast furnace slag and sands, reducing viscosity by 83% and achieving 75% thermal recovery efficiency. The resulting glassy slag beads are suitable for cement production, pote…

Bo Li, Yiping Zeng, Bo Yan +4

This study evaluates stranded assets from early coal plant retirements in China using a Monte Carlo multi-criteria framework on 3652 units across 30 provinces. It identifies Liaoning, Sichuan, and Jiangxi as early retirement priorities, wit…

Johnathan Guy

This paper examines how financial distress of electricity distribution utilities (DISCOMs) in India affects the energy transition. Using original data, it finds that in the short run, distressed DISCOMs procure relatively more renewable ene…

Hamburger Á.

This paper critically examines the effectiveness of the European Guarantee of Origin (GO) scheme as an energy policy tool. It analyzes the impact of GOs on market signals and consumer choice, and identifies design flaws that may undermine p…

Langer L.

This review systematically examines empirical studies on whether voluntary renewable energy certificate (REC) purchases lead to actual greenhouse gas emission reductions. It addresses additionality and double counting issues, offering insig…

H. Gebara C.

This paper proposes a mapping approach to bridge the gap between corporate goals and scope 2 GHG accounting methods (e.g., location-based, market-based). It provides a framework for practitioners to select appropriate methods based on their…

Hu J.

This paper proposes a low-carbon oriented framework for large-scale electric vehicle deployment that incorporates transmission network impacts. It presents an integrated planning approach for EV adoption and power grid, aiming to contribute…
