GX & Decarbonization Research

Tae-Youl Jeon, Young-Chan Lee

A stochastic model endogenising the IMO Net-Zero Framework's two-tier compliance mechanism assesses SMR propulsion for a 15,000 TEU container ship over 25 years. The SMR abates 96.6% of life-cycle emissions, but its cost versus the best con…

Decarbonizing cement and concrete requires both supply-side (low-clinker cement) and demand-side (low-cement concrete, efficient design) strategies, yet direct comparisons are rare. This paper compares technical potential and burden distrib…

Siyuan Wang, Fengqi You

This work argues that cross-border electricity tariff designs in North America undermine grid efficiency, delay decarbonization, and reduce reliability. It highlights how border-level pricing and institutional barriers block wide-area renew…

This paper examines dual adoption opportunities and prospects for recovering value from mining and industrial waste through integrated CCUS. It appears to link resource recovery (metals/minerals) with carbon capture and utilization, explori…

Dal-Ri Murcia F.

A study on ESG disclosure practices among Brazilian listed companies. Without an abstract, specifics are unclear, but it likely examines disclosure patterns and gaps in an emerging market, offering a non-OECD perspective on the global conve…

Aging domestic fleets face compliance gaps for LNG dual-fuel retrofits when manufacturer documentation is unavailable. This paper proposes a risk-based design approval framework demonstrating functional safety equivalence via hazard analysi…

S. B., Vijaya Maheswari Velala, Ahmad Azhar +2

Using survey data from Indian commercial banks, this study examines how corporate governance, internal audit quality, and AI adoption jointly affect sustainable financial reporting quality. Internal audit quality and governance are positive…

Using a 2014–2023 panel of 33 Chinese listed commercial banks, this study links a composite climate risk index (CCRI)—combining branch-weighted physical risk and transition-risk disclosure intensity—to risk-weighted asset ratios. Higher CCR…
