This study compares the bankability of lithium-ion and vanadium redox flow batteries in a rural Kenyan hybrid renewable energy system. Using an integrated framework of Homer Pro, financial modeling, LCA, and AHP, it finds that Li-ion offers…

ІВАН КАВУН, Anatolii Zamulko

This paper explores the application of Result-Based Management (RBM) methodology for evaluating and accelerating digital transformation of electricity distribution networks in Ukraine. It develops a logical model for DSOs linking inputs to …

Kyung Bae Jang, Tae Ho Woo

This study uses a system dynamics approach to analyze how generative AI optimizes nuclear energy's contribution and mitigates vulnerabilities of carbon-intensive sources. Test 1 (low initial value) outperformed others, with the highest sens…

Filipe Duarte Santos, Yvette Ramos

This paper analyzes the impact of a shift from a liberal international order to a bipolar neorealistic order dominated by the US and China on climate change action. It examines three structural determinants: climate variable evolution, prim…

Ivano Scotti, Giorgio Osti

This paper analyzes the initial phase of agrivoltaics deployment in Italy using a radical new institutionalist framework. It finds that the agricultural sector occupies a dependent position, agroecological concerns are neglected, and instal…

Biswajit Sahoo Biswajit Sahoo, Antaryami Muduli Antaryami Muduli, Chinmaya Kumar Swain Chinmaya Kumar Swain +2

This comprehensive review examines the evolution of sustainability and SDGs, covering renewable energy, ESG frameworks, and the role of AI, IoT, and Industry 4.0. It highlights challenges such as climate change, greenwashing, and policy fra…

TU Chen, PAN Xuanying, WANG Huan, MENG Yao, DAI Jing, WANG Xiaoyu

This paper develops a bidirectional coordinated optimization model for computing-power nodes, considering diverse green electricity consumption modes (direct green energy connection, PPA, grid supplementation) and spatio-temporal flexibilit…

Clarissa Petrachini Gonçalves, Dorel Soares Ramos

This paper evaluates how capacity payments and portfolio complementarities between hydropower and wind influence renewable investment decisions under uncertainty using a real options approach. Applied to the Brazilian electricity market, it…

Grace Alinaitwe, Florence Barugahara

Using Ugandan national survey data and a multivariate probit model, this study analyzes household solar PV adoption determinants. Income, savings, and education significantly predict uptake among off-grid households, while grid access and u…

Jeongwon Park

This study investigates whether energy transition changes energy security identity. Analyzing Chinese central policy documents (2012-2022), it proposes 'ontological substitution' to explain the persistence of existing security criteria afte…

Stefan Siedentop

This paper critically examines land-use conflicts arising from Germany's sectoral decarbonization agenda. It argues that the federal government has not explicitly treated territorial coordination of competing land-use demands as a policy ob…

Florian Peterssen, Marlon Schlemminger, Clemens Lohr +3

This paper investigates whether offshore hydrogen plants are advantageous for the German energy system compared to offshore power plants. Using an optimization model, it varies the levelized cost of hydrogen (LCOH) and grid capacity limits …

Aksornchan Chaianong, Dogukan Günkördü, Daria Lebedeva +5

This dataset compiles landscape and environmental regulations for solar panels, wind turbines, electric vehicles (EVs), and EV charging infrastructure. Created by a German research team and published under CC BY-SA 4.0, it supports analysis…

Ting Feng, Chaobo Zhou

This paper examines how corporate carbon emissions are assessed under increasing climate risk. It analyzes the impact of regulation and market pressure on emission reductions, emphasizing the importance of corporate disclosure.

Lіubov H. Kvasniі, Liubov О. Malyk, Oksana О. Soltysik +1

This paper identifies public administration mechanisms for adapting coal-dependent communities in Ukraine to the green economy. It proposes strategies including energy efficiency, SME support, and economic diversification to facilitate a ju…
