This study quantifies third-country carbon—emissions occurring outside both trade partners but embedded in their supply chains—using the Eora multi-regional input-output table. In 2021, it reached 1.85 Gt CO2 (27.7% of trade-embodied emissi…

Beck HP

This study evaluates the energy return on investment (EROI) of firming weather-dependent renewables in a Central European mix of 80% wind and 20% solar. Expanding the system boundary to include grids, storage, and backup reduces EROI from 1…

Jenei, Bettina, Al-Masri, Wael, Youssef, Souhail +3

This study experimentally measures H2-brine relative permeability in tight sandstone for underground hydrogen storage (UHS) efficiency assessment. Results show significant differences from CO2/N2 analogue data due to hydrogen's unique prope…
