Energy security and affordability are major concerns in the coming winter as Germany seeks substitutes for Russia’s energy supplies. We highlight the role of energy transition on its exposure to energy price shocks and its failure to include security considerations in its trading arrangements....

Marine and permafrost-based methane hydrates are the largest existing fossil carbon resource, whereby the marine deposits far outweigh the terrestrial ones. Their broad geographic distribution, especially in comparison to oil and conventional gas, make them a promising future source of energy....

Affordable net-zero carbon electricity systems are critical in achieving a net-zero carbon economy, and California, who has long been a leader in climate policy, established a goal to reach a 100% clean grid by 2045. A capacity expansion and dispatch model is used to assess large-scale...

The aim of this paper is to enunciate a new way to estimate levelized cost of electric energy (LCOE), considering emission of greenhouse gases cost, by taking the theoretical cost of avoiding pollution as the emission cost. In this way, it would be comparable LCOE from different sources of...
