Solar photovoltaic (PV) technological leap-frogging greatly enhances energy accessibility, yet energy affordability remains a critical challenge. Traditional financing options, categorized as the solar-as-asset model, usually favor utility-scale PV projects, whereas the investment growth in...

The progress of science increasingly relies on machine learning (ML) and machines work alongside humans in various domains of science. This study investigates the team structure of ML-related projects and analyzes the contribution of ML to scientific knowledge production under different team...

Carbon tariff has been widely studied as a prominent climate policy in terms of its influences on the economy and the environment. However, previous studies of its effectiveness did not incorporate into the analysis of some key factors, including, notably, trade elasticities. This paper aims at...

New technologies can help drive sustainable development, what can be called “SusTech” solutions. But how can these be supported by governments adopted by firms (especially in managing value chains) and encouraged by users? This policy brief proposes a threepart solution: (1) The G20 should...
