The negative effects of energy consumption and pollution have restrained Chinese economy from further rapid sustainable growth. Examining their relationship with economic growth can lay a solid foundation for the decision-making of energy conservation and pollution reduction and ensure the...

There are many factors that affect energy consumption. Among these factors, the industrial structure transformation directly influences energy consumption. This paper makes a concrete analysis on the influence that China's industrial structure transformation on energy consumption on the basis of...

Of all countries in the East Asian region, China is the most important in terms of its prospects for nuclear energy. This study provides a comprehensive and holistic perspective for nuclear power development in China up to the year 2050 with reference to recent literature on the related major...

Fossil fuels are major sources of energy, and have several advantages over other primary energy sources. Without extensive dependence on fossil fuels, it is questionable whether our economic prosperity can continue. This paper analyses cointegration and causality between fossil fuel consumption...

This paper studied the cointegration and causality relations between China's energy consumption and economic growth. It concludes that there is bi-directional causality, but no cointegration, between them; therefore, China may have underestimated the pressure from increasing energy demand and...

The economic growth of the Dodecanese islands in Greece has been based solely on tourism and the electricity production is very critical in sustaining this economic growth. The electricity production is solely done with the use of diesel and heavy fuel oil. Even though there have been some...

The long-term US experience emphasises the importance of controlling for electrification and other major technology transformations when evaluating the growth of carbon emissions at different stages of development. Prior to World War I, carbon emissions grew faster than economic growth by 2.3%...

The paper addresses and compares the dynamics of energy intensity of Russia and some industrial countries. The possible impacts of two scenarios of Russian economy development in the next 30 years on the energy intensity of industry, transport and residential sectors are considered. A...

The economic growth of the Dodecanese islands in Greece has been based solely on tourism and the electricity production is very critical in sustaining this economic growth. The electricity production is solely done with the use of diesel and heavy fuel oil. Even though there have been some...

The South Asian region is characterised by low per capita energy consumption. There are large differences in the region with regard to energy resource endowments. In the entire region one notices an excessive use of non-commercial energy. The region has significant hydro-potential, which needs...
