In most European countries in the energy sector, a reconsideration of renewable energy priorities is taking place, increasing consumer safety and protecting the environment through the use of renewable energy sources that provide an affordable and guaranteed solution in the medium and long term....

This article introduces and overviews U.S. renewable energy policy. It describes the shape, content, and contours of that policy, including its emphases and functions in both the electricity and transportation sectors of the U.S. economy. To do so, the article builds a conceptual model that can...

This paper analyzes a unique case of default risks and associated factors of a solar home system (SHS) program in Bangladesh and, within that context, proposes a theoretical market-based solution to finance a renewable energy (RE) program. The paper first develops a theoretical framework that...

This paper provides an overview of Bangladesh's green financing status, with a particular focus on the renewable energy (RE) sector. Despite having great potential of renewable energy sources, the sector currently consists of a meager 1% share of the energy portfolio. The poor performance of the...

As part of the decarbonisation of the global economy, low-carbon hydrogen is expected to play acentral role in future energy systems. This article presents a comprehensive approach for estimating thedevelopment of global production and supply costs of low-carbon hydrogen from renewable energy...

The world's major countries are aggressively preparing national strategic countermeasures in response to climate change, the fourth industrial revolution and tightening environmental regulations.Korea is also preparing for the new energy paradigm in earnest. The government is working on a...

Mitigation-Process Integrated Assessment Models (MP-IAMs) are used to analyze long-term transformation pathways of the energy system required to achieve stringent climate change mitigation targets. Due to their substantial temporal and spatial aggregation, IAMs cannot explicitly represent all...

This paper aimed to evaluate the impact of the current EU energy crisis on Romania s policies to boost green energy as a solution to balance the national energy mix. Our methodological approach was a mixed one using both bibliometric analysis and qualitative analysis based on experts interview....

A Circular Economy is based on efficiency in natural resource consumption. Reduction in solid and liquid pollution and emissions are built into the new and efficient production processes. To reduce solid and liquid waste, circular economy design is modifying the production process in many...

Ethiopia’s energy sector faces critical challenges to meeting steadily increasing demand given limited infrastructure, heavy reliance on hydroelectric power, and underdevelopment of alternative energy resources. The main aim of this paper is to investigate an optimal least cost investment...
