Climate change is having significant impacts on ocean and coastal ecosystems and wildlife, with rising seas inundating wetlands and coastal estuaries, warming waters altering marine species habitat and breeding behavior, and ocean acidification weakening corals, mollusks and marine species,...

The study attempted to assess the importance of agriculture in the process of renewable energy development in Poland and the EU. It was pointed out that, despite the large production potential, the share of agriculture in the production of renewable energy is relatively small in many countries,...

It is commonly believed that the response of the price of corn ethanol (and hence of the price of corn) to shifts in biofuel policies operates in part through market expectations and shifts in storage demand, yet to date it has proved difficult to measure these expectations and to empirically...

Peter M. Wiedemann, Udo Erdmann und Frederik Freudenstein, University of Wollongong, TIBER und KIT, stellen die Ergebnisse einer Umfrage vor, die sich mit der Bewertung einzelner erneuerbarer Energieformen befasst, und zwar mit Solarenergie, Windenergie an Land und auf See, Wasserkraft und...

This paper develops a multi-country multi-sector general equilibrium model, integrating high-frequency electricity dispatch and trade decisions, to study the e ects of electricity transmission infrastructure (TI) expansion and re- newable energy (RE) penetration in Europe for gains from trade...

This paper argues that waste-to-energy’s stagnation in the U.S. illustrates the failure of state-based renewable energy portfolio standards to efficiently incentivize the growth of renewable energy. The absence of a federal renewable energy standard and resultant patchwork of state-based...

This article introduces an investor-oriented framework for the evaluation of renewable energy policy, applies these newly developed criteria to a qualitative comparison of the primary policy instruments, and offers recommendations to enhance the investor appeal of renewable energy in the United...
