This paper analyzes how international aid, domestic governance, and geopolitical risk condition the momentum of energy transitions in Global South countries. It offers implications for designing decarbonization policies in developing nation…

S Kumar, Y. Lalitha Kameswari, Th Basanta +2

This chapter discusses the importance of energy storage for integrating renewable energy, covering technologies like flywheels, batteries, thermal storage, pumped hydro, and supercapacitors. It emphasizes their role in grid management, load…

Zhaoyang Xu, Lei Zhu, KuoRay Mao +1

This study analyzes three solar projects in China (Ningxia, Shandong, Jiangsu) to examine how low-carbon transitions affect energy justice (distributive, procedural, recognition). Using field interviews and policy analysis, it develops a fo…

This paper presents a strategic masterplan for a circular energy system in the Netherlands, storing surplus renewable electricity as silicon granules and releasing heat and power on demand via CHP. It outlines a 25-year, six-step transition…

César Ducruet, Mariantonia Lo Prete

This chapter reviews local initiatives in European port cities on energy transition and transport fluidity. Individual initiatives concentrate in northern Europe and large ports, while collective actions, funded by the EU, are more common i…

Ashwini K. Swain, Sarada Prasanna Das

This paper analyzes how Indian cities can act as catalysts for the energy transition. By examining urban-centric policies and plans, it identifies drivers, enablers, and barriers, and proposes priorities and governance reforms to unlock cit…
