This paper proposes a two-stage robust optimization framework for day-ahead scheduling of shipboard integrated energy systems under maritime carbon pricing and renewable uncertainty. A shipboard-adapted SOCP DistFlow formulation with node-s…

Chau-Hoai Bao, H. Tran-Quoc, Linh Nguyen Thi My +1

A bibliometric and science-mapping review of 213 Scopus papers (1989–2025) on green tourism and sustainable development. Output surged after 2022, concentrated in China and Asia, forming six thematic clusters. Research has shifted from broa…

Zohaib Hassan, Deyi Xu, Shah Abbas +2

An empirical study examining how innovation, policy uncertainty, and environmental stringency shape the development and supply of renewable-energy minerals in China. It highlights the interplay between critical-mineral sourcing and policy d…

PETERS Jens, Manuel Baumann

A study assessing the price and carbon footprint of emerging sodium-ion batteries. It offers a lens on the economics and environmental burden of a storage technology positioned as an alternative to lithium-ion. Methods and findings are uncl…

Zhiyuan Xue, Keman Lin, Mingjiang Liu +3

A low-carbon dispatch strategy is proposed for an offshore-wind-integrated electricity–gas–methanol system with variable hydrogen blending in the gas network. A combustion and carbon emission model of the hydrogen-mixed gas turbine is devel…

Habtamu Alem

This study assesses low-carbon electricity portfolios and economy-wide fossil-fuel dependence across EU energy systems. It likely offers a comparative framework for gauging decarbonization progress and fossil-fuel vulnerability by country o…

Pablo Tamayo, J. A. Sainz-Aja, C. Thomas +4

This study develops and validates low-carbon self-compacting concrete for floating offshore wind substructures, comparing Portland cement (CEM I) with slag-based CEM III/B. Both binders achieved 75–85 MPa compressive strength and 45–52 GPa …

Gaurav Mittal, Festival Godwin Boateng, Andrea San Gil León +6

This collection argues for centering 'popular transport'—the informal, widely used mobility systems of the Global South—in climate and sustainability policy. It reframes transport decarbonization as a political and equity question rather th…

Fadhli Wong

A thesis exploring sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) as a decarbonization pathway for Malaysia's airline industry. A modified Delphi survey shows ~83.1% of public respondents favor nature-based carbon offsets, while expert interviews with air…

Kamilla Marchewka-Bartkowiak, Iustina Alina Boitan, Filip Iorgulescu

Panel models across all 27 EU Member States (2013–2021) test whether climate-transition policies drive non-household electricity prices. EU ETS auction prices, ETS-related fiscal variables, energy and environmental taxes, and renewable shar…

Wullianallur Raghupathi

A 120-country, 2011–2020 panel study relating six energy variables to five environmental outcomes under a common estimator ladder (pooled OLS, two-way FE with Driscoll–Kraay, IV, Blundell–Bond GMM). Energy mix explains carbon emissions stro…

Abdullah Bingöl, Erdem Işık, İhsan Dağtekin +1

A critical review of the 17 rare earth elements covering applications, thermodynamics, processing and mechanical performance. It argues the energy transition—EVs, wind turbines, renewables—has sharply raised demand for Nd, Pr, Dy and Tb in …

Gashaw, Kanchwodia A., Fantu, Hermela, Temesgen, Adugnaw Lake +13

This report summarizes 14 modelling case studies conducted across East Africa under the OpenMod4Africa project. Using an open-source multi-model toolbox (GENeSYS-MOD, openTEPES, Plan4RES, EV-PV, GTFS4EV, OnSSET), it assesses long-term energ…

Nesládek, Michal, Bełch, Wojciech, Stará, Soňa +1

Technical specification of an LLM-assisted agent-based model (LLM-ABM) for the ENBLOC project on energy transition in post-socialist housing cooperatives. It details theoretical foundations, agent characteristics, architecture, input data, …

Sumeet Kishore, Md Dilkash, Chandan Mondal +4

This study examines battery electric mining equipment (BEME) as an alternative to diesel-powered machinery for mine decarbonization. It finds BEME cuts carbon emissions, ventilation requirements, noise, and maintenance costs while improving…

KEBE, Cheikh Mouhamed Fadel, Ndiaye, Babacar Mbaye, Dan-Baibe, Sébastien A. +7

This OpenMod4Africa WP5 report combines a Senegal national case study and an ECOWAS/WAPP regional case study. Using GENeSYS-MOD, it models BAU, intermediate decarbonization and net-zero pathways to 2050, quantifying generation mix, gas/sola…
