In this paper, we analyze the technical efficiency of CO2 reduction potentials of German power and heat plants, using a non-parametric sequential Data Envelopment Analysis. We apply a metafrontier framework to evaluate plant-level efficiencies in the transformation of inputs into desirable...

This paper develops a path for the global energy system up to 2050, presenting a new application of the open source energy systems model OSeMOSYS to the community. It allows quite disaggregate energy and emission analysis: GENeSYS-MOD (Global Energy System Model) uses a system of linear...

We develop a composite indicator measuring the performance of national innovation systems. The indicator takes into account both hard factors that are quantifiable (such as R&D spending, number of patents) and soft factors like the assessment of preconditions for innovation by managers. We apply...
