This study analyzes the impact of energy transition and inclusive growth on load capacity factor (LCF) and ecological footprint (EFP) in sub-Saharan African countries from 2000 to 2023, considering economic freedom. Using method of moment q…

Abigail Ortiz Curinambe, A SOSA, Vanessa Raymundo +5

This study proposes a planning methodology for sustainable productive rural settlements, applied to a case study in Pocollay, Peru. The six-phase methodology integrates circular economy and bioclimatic design, developing a master plan and h…

Yongliang Luo, Yu Han, Biao Yang +3

Using LEAP, this study models Guangxi's power system to 2060 under four scenarios, comparing renewable-led and CCUS-intensive pathways. The integrated scenario cuts CO2 by ~95% and significantly reduces air pollutants. CCUS contributes ~75%…

Christopher W. Callahan

This study leverages the proportionality between cumulative CO2 emissions and global warming to develop statistical models that attribute extreme climate risk to individual emitters. Results show US emissions increased extreme heat risk by …
