Through the long-distance transmission of electric energy, global interconnected power grids have become promising for the decarbonization of the power systems nowadays. However, the implementation of an extremely large-scale system may be controversial because practical examples are rare. In...

The energy transition is leading to profound changes in all parts of the energy system, but the reduction of fossil fuels in the heating sector is a major challenge for the energy sector. The changing heat-generating structure also affects its supply infrastructures. The impact on the existing...

Energy system models are increasingly used to identify climate change mitigation measures. Crucially, such models require future cost estimates, which depend on both technological advancement and investments. In global models, which encompass the whole world, this can be implemented via learning...

This study presents an assessment of Pakistan's energy security performance by measuring its Energy Security Index (ESIOP) for the years 1991-2040. The ESIOP consists of 39 indicators finalized by discrimination analysis, reliability testing and weighted through principal component analysis...

Pakistan has not fully harnessed the capacity of its vast hydropower potential for electricity generation. It depends on imported and local fossil fuels to fulfill its energy demands, which consume a significant portion of the country's economy. Hydropower can provide an economical, renewable,...

Access to power in Bangladesh has significantly increased over the last decade. The creditable achievement of electricity generation capacity addresses the serious energy crisis of the country and aids the rapid growth of industrial and business sector in Bangladesh. The government of Bangladesh...

Economic development brings along strong energy demand. Northeast Asia is one of the regions with the most potential for further energy development in the world. Due to the complex geopolitical dilemma, barriers haven't been eliminated in energy trade and investment; therefore, there is more...

Natural gas infrastructures play a key role in the transition towards the new energy model, with a high share of renewable energies, both ensuring the firm capacity of electric power systems and integrating all energy vectors. The European Union (EU) strongly depends on external natural gas...

Asia remained the largest energy consumer in 2020. The Russian Federation hopes to gain a greater share of the Asian energy market. This study examined the Russian Federation-Asia and Pacific energy trade patterns using gravity trade theory and GMM panel estimation for 17 selected Asia and...
