Using daily data from 2013 to 2023, this study employs a TVP-VAR model to examine volatility spillovers among critical mineral ETFs, energy markets, carbon emission futures, and global infrastructure. High-ESG-score portfolios significantly…

Deliang Zhou, Jiajia Jin

Using data on Chinese A-share listed firms from 2013 to 2022, this paper shows that the digital economy significantly drives firms' low-carbon transition. Industrial structure upgrading serves as a mediating channel, and market competition …

Jungwoo Chun, Touimi-Benjelloun Soraya, Suh-Yong Chung

This paper compares French and German nuclear energy policies, applying McAdam's political opportunity structure theory extended with public opinion and renewable energy capacity as explanatory variables. It finds that policy divergence ref…

Angie Bexley, Trissia Wijaya

This paper analyzes Indonesia's renewable energy transition, where billions in climate finance and 1.7 million projected jobs mask gender inequalities. It identifies three structural barriers: bankable project prioritization leaving gender …

This paper presents the Energy Transition Index (ETI), a composite dataset for 141 emerging markets and developing economies (EMDEs) from 2000-2023, adapted from the World Economic Forum's ETI framework. It comprises two sub-indices: Energy…

Mohammadreza Mohammadpour, Amirreza Mohammadpour, Mehdi Ashjaee +1

This paper investigates ammonia-powered multi-generation systems that produce electricity and freshwater concurrently, assessing their role in advancing the low-carbon energy transition. It likely evaluates system efficiency, environmental …

Rafael Leal-Arcas

This introductory chapter argues that sustainable energy transitions require a shift from top-down governance to citizen-led, bottom-up participation. Citizens and 'prosumers' are presented as emerging actors driving decentralization, democ…
