Currently, the research agenda of energy transition is gaining momentum. This paper conducts a comprehensive review of this body of research by presenting a framework that describes the connotations, mechanisms, and effects of energy transitions. The study concludes that the energy transition...

Hybrid renewable energy systems have garnered considerable attention as sustainable power sources for remote off-grid islands in the Philippines. Consequently, they have been the subject of numerous techno-economic investigations. However, comprehensive explorations into the viability of 100 %...

This paper contributes to mitigating the debate on whether carbon taxes have positive or negative effects on climate change by presenting an investigation on the relationship between carbon taxes and renewable energy consumption. Taking advantage of the panel CS-ARDL model, we distinctly inspect...

Municipalities play a key role in transitioning to a climate neutral and 100% renewable energy system. Although alternative energy system models, feasibility analyses and strategic energy plans are being developed, municipalities lack the know-how, funding, authority or political demand needed...

The uptake of renewable energy sources is intensifying in detached houses in the Nordic countries. Survey results (N = 4276) among a detached-house owner association members in Finland imply that the energy transition has progressed further than believed. In the sample, 89 % of households had...

Beijing's power system has experienced a significant transition by eliminating coal-fired power generation and increasing the extent of electrification over the past two decades. This study uses a plant-level dataset, pair-wise energy flow, and customized index decomposition analysis to...

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...

The COVID-19 pandemic brought tremendous pressure to the African continent's health sector, particularly in rural areas. Rural healthcare facilities experienced severe energy shortages due to the influx of Covid-19 patients, which strained their operating capacities. These facilities usually...

An adequate information basis is important for designing and evaluating policy measures to reach international climate goals. Current energy statistics are primarily based on the UN's International Recommendations for Energy Statistics (IRES). We have examined changes in the energy system and...

Over the past two decades, Bangladesh has experienced a rapid increase in access to electricity. Bangladesh has become more dependent on the burning of furnace oil for electricity generation instead of increasing the generation of renewable energy sources. There are a variety of energy resources...
