This systematic review evaluates mycelium-based composites (MBCs) as building insulation, showing promising thermal performance (thermal conductivity 0.0404 W/m·K for mycelium-hemp), low density, biodegradability, and use of renewable feeds…

Qianwen Tan, Monica Siroux

This study systematically evaluates the energy, exergy, and economic performance of bio-based PCM integrated into multilayer walls across four French climates. A full factorial analysis shows that PCM thickness is dominant, and a balanced c…

Susan Samuel, Gunjan Soni

This paper analyzes how major oil companies use litigation against governments that enact fossil fuel bans to slow the green transition. It examines the impact of legal challenges on decarbonization policy implementation and the corporate s…

Li Hou

This paper systematically reviews the concept, measurement, and heterogeneous impacts of carbon risk on corporate financing, operations, and investment under China's Dual Carbon goals. It discusses feasible risk management optimization path…

Romain Pirard, Kenneth Möllersten

This paper critiques the counter-productivity of dichotomizing carbon dioxide removals and emissions reductions for mitigation policy. It identifies three flaws: economic dimensions overlooked, inconsistent methodologies in carbon crediting…

Santi Gopal Maji, Rituraj Boruah

This study examines the relationship between corporate governance efficiency and climate change financial disclosure for the top 50 firms in India, China, and the US (2018–2023). Using OECD-based governance indices and content analysis, ran…

This paper presents a techno-economic analysis and decarbonization strategy for heat recovery in dairy steam processes. It evaluates technologies like heat pumps, heat exchangers, boiler electrification, and renewable integration, achieving…

Juan F Gutierrez-Guerra, José Pablo Chaves-Ávila, Andrés Ramos +2

This paper proposes a multi-market strategy combining biomass CHP (combined heat and power) with steam-generating heat pumps for industrial decarbonization. It examines technical feasibility and economic viability, highlighting emission red…

V. Martinho

This paper conducts a bibliometric analysis to assess the maturity of renewable and sustainable energy research. It finds solar and wind are near saturation (85.1%), bioenergy is at early maturity (59.7%), and green hydrogen is saturated (9…

Jairo Stefano Dote Pardo

This systematic review examines the deployment of non-conventional renewable energy (NCRE) in emerging economies, finding that institutional and financial misalignment—not technology maturity—is the main barrier. Emerging strategic response…
