The manufacturing process of renewable energy components involves some conventional energy at different steps. It is then clear that the fabrication of the components of a renewable energy system will emit an amount of greenhouse gas(GHG). The work carried out in this paper is based on...

With the expansion of renewable energy sources (RES) in countries all over the world, policy design to address the negative impacts of RES plants on their local and regional environment gains in importance. We analyse whether policy design should be spatially-differentiated or uniform when...

Climate change poses a pressing and urgent peril to the overall welfare of the planet, with far-reaching implications for human livelihoods. The aim of this research is to explore the influence of environmental technologies, environmental taxes, and FDI in B&R economies on increasing renewable...

For a developing nation such as Malaysia with a significant reliance on fossil fuels for electricity, understanding the environmental consequences of this dependency is crucial. Thus, this study utilizes the Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) method to explore the impact of electricity...

This paper examines the economic and GHG implications of stacking a low carbon fuel standard (LCFS) with and without a carbon price policy on the Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS). We compare the performance of various policy combinations for food and fuel prices, fuel mix and fuel consumption. We...

The stifling summer heat that raged across the nation was difficult for everyone, but one group had a more difficult time than others — those who could not afford to cool their homes. Disparities like these will likely only get worse. Low-income communities of color that are already vulnerable...

This paper contributes to sustainable energy solutions towards fulfilment of Iran’s Paris Accord commitment of a four percent reduction in emissions by 2030. The paper firstly tests for the long-run relationship between electricity consumption and its determinants using a cointegration...
