We explore the history and current status of green energy finance in Australia and New Zealand. Although both countries have enviable renewable energy resources with a 100% renewable mix considered feasible, the two countries present highly contrasting contexts for energy finance. Currently, and...

Increasing shares of wind and solar generation serve to decarbonize electricity generation; however, their temporal and spatial variability poses challenges in grid operation. While grid expansion is restricted in the medium term, storage technologies can potentially increase the power...

As redispatch costs and their associated distributional impacts continue to rise, the discussion on reconfiguring bidding zones in European power markets persists. However, determining an appropriate bidding zone configuration is a non-trivial task, as it must prove beneficial under varying...

Australia’s abundant supply of coal has underpinned its power system. Competing countries have used a variety of energy resources, which sees many of them now equipped with resilient power systems to provide future electrical power. This paper considers the implication of possible scenarios...

Electric vehicle drives offer a number of advantages over conventional internal combustion engines, especially in terms of lower local emissions, higher energy efficiency, and decreased dependency upon oil. Yet there are significant barriers to the rapid adoption of electric cars, including the...
