To address climate change, most world energy systems must convert to carbon-free sources including variable sources such as solar and wind power. Currently there are few examples of such systems, and their economics are not well understood. In this study we consider how much energy efficiency...

This study aims to examine the congruence of trade openness with regards to encouraging pervasive usage of green energy sources and the nexus among environmental degradation, economic development, oil prices, and green energy consumption (GEC). The study utilizes advanced panel data techniques,...

This study highlights the important role of strategic policy interventions in promoting sustainable economic prosperity and social equity in OECD economies. It specifically focuses on the positive effects of technological development, energy efficiency, renewable electricity, and human capital...

Iran holds the world's second-largest proven oil reserves and fourth-largest gas reserves. However, the heavy reliance on highly subsidized fossil fuel resources, coupled with growing demand, has led to their depletion and increased greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. This research introduces a...

Green digital finance plays a crucial role in driving green production, consumption and facilitating the low-carbon transition of energy consumption structures. This paper delves into the impact of green digital finance on this transformation from a multidimensional perspective for the first...

The European countries are highly dependent on energy imports, making them vulnerable to international geopolitical threats. In this context, improving energy efficiency emerges as a cost-effective solution. The primary purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of geopolitical risk...

Green credit plays a pivotal role in maintaining a balance between energy demand and the transition to low-carbon energy sources while considering energy conservation, emission reduction and the 'dual carbon' goal strategies. The SE-SBM model and the spatial Durbin model were used in this study...

The state of the Ghana Power System reflects a story of progress, challenges, and future potential. Ghana has experienced significant milestones and achievements in its power system, including the development of major infrastructure projects such as the Akosombo Dam and initiatives to expand...

The covid-19 pandemic has unleashed unprecedented shocks across all aspects of society. Especially, the energy sector is in no exception, with concerns being raised about how governments and private sector will recover from the economic recession but continue working towards clean energy...

With the growing need for sustainable energy solutions in urban areas, a strategic integration of energy supply, public transport modernization, and energy demand reduction for residential and commercial buildings has become crucial. While numerous efforts have showcased technological...
