This paper extends the open-source PyPSA-Eur model with country-level carbon constraints to simulate European energy transition pathways from 2025 to 2050 under three carbon budgets. It finds that internal drivers (e.g., electrolyzer costs)…

Grazia Neglia, Ferdinando Verardi, Ippolita Mecca

This paper proposes strategic design for renewable energy communities in historic villages in Italys Grecìa Salentina, integrating circular regeneration for energy self-sufficiency. It explores how local resources can support cultural prese…

This paper analyzes how climate change affects inclusive growth in African countries. While no abstract is provided, the topic addresses the intersection of climate change and economic development.

Yunhu Gao, Fanran Meng, Jennifer L. Hawkin +2

This paper explores reducing greenhouse gas emissions from polymer processing at end-of-life. It likely discusses recycling or waste-to-energy approaches to lower the carbon footprint of polymer products.

André Alves

This paper uses the wicked problems concept to analyze land-use planning complexities in the energy transition to renewables. It highlights governance challenges from spatial implications and contributes to planning theory debates on the sp…

This study examines contributions of environmental NGOs to environmental justice and renewable energy infrastructure in the Niger Delta post-Saro-Wiwa. Solar energy dominates renewable projects; governments and private firms implement more …

Andrea Bastianin, Luca Rossini, Marco Zoso

Using web search data to construct monthly demand indexes for cobalt, copper, and nickel, this paper applies SVAR models to disentangle supply and demand shocks. Transition demand shocks driven by green and digital technologies have persist…

Cătălina Dobre, Mihaela Constantin

This review consolidates studies on hydrogen-enriched natural gas (H2NG) in CHP systems, finding that 5-20% hydrogen improves efficiency and reduces CO2 but increases NOx. It examines mitigation strategies like lean-burn and hybrid renewabl…

This paper examines the transformation of the global energy order from US hegemony to asymmetric multipolarity with China at its core. While remaining the world's largest hydrocarbon importer, China is becoming a clean energy technology lea…

Asif Saeed, Samreen Hamid, Ghulame Rubbaniy +1

Using panel data from G20 and N11 economies (2002–2022), this study shows that higher female representation in parliament strengthens the effectiveness of environmental taxation in reducing CO2 and GHG emissions, contributing to SDG Climate…

Masood, Abdulrahman Othman, Asaad, Khaleel Ibrahim, Mohammed, Hasan Ramadhan

This paper proposes an IoT-based Demand Side Management and Short-Term Load Forecasting framework using a low-cost Raspberry Pi edge gateway. Validated with field data from Kurdistan, the Random Forest model achieved RMSE 0.1152 kW and R² 0…

This qualitative study examines the role of green patents and industrial intellectual property in fostering technological innovation in renewable energies. Based on literature and document analysis, it finds that green patents promote resea…

Sandeep Patil*, Saloni Patil, Shruti Kulkarni

This paper reviews industrial carbon purification technologies (carbon capture, activated carbon filtration, electrostatic precipitators, catalytic oxidation, biological systems) for power, cement, steel, and chemical sectors. It identifies…

MLILESS, Mohamed

This paper analyzes the impact of climate change on international peace and security, and outlines the 'green defense' strategies of the US and French armed forces. It examines military efforts to reduce carbon emissions and transition ener…

Bianchi, Marco

This dataset provides numerical results from a study on value-chain vulnerability in green hydrogen production. It quantifies vulnerability indicators at three aggregation levels: product, stage, and system. The structured data enables deta…
