This study proposes a two-step low-temperature calcination process to convert waste optical fibers into hard carbon for sodium-ion battery anodes, contributing to waste valorization and low-cost battery material production.

Qianyu Ren, Yu Cai, Tao Xu +1

This study uses survey data from rural Hainan, China, to show that social capital (trust, norms, networks) positively influences low-carbon living behaviors, with policy cognition partially mediating the relationship. Heterogeneity is found…

Beibei Wang, Ruxin Lai

Proposes a supply optimization method for free-floating bike sharing systems aimed at low-carbon operations. Evaluates CO2 reduction potential through operational adjustments.

Axel Bastián Poque González

This paper analyzes Latin America's role in the energy transition through dependency theory, focusing on the interplay between the US, China, and Latin American mineral exporters. It argues that the transition reconfigures rather than break…

Giorgia Giovannetti, Enrico Marvasi, Chahir Zaki

This study examines factors driving clean energy adoption in MENA firms using awareness, feasibility, and perceived efficiency. Awareness is the key driver, amplified by female management and global value chain participation, while policy a…

This paper analyzes the current status and challenges of the transition to renewable energy in Russia, a major oil and gas superpower. It examines Russia's energy policy, the deployment of renewable energy, and future prospects.

Bhatta, Bibek

This paper argues that LCOE is unreliable for comparing energy technologies or assessing transition costs, due to methodological flaws such as inconsistent discount rates and fixed carbon price assumptions. It proposes a simple macroeconomi…

Zelt, Ole, Jülich, Alexander, Kloo, Ylva +2

This paper presents two technology inventories for low-emission technologies in the steel and petrochemical industries, developed under the EU-CHINA BRIDGE project. The inventories include detailed descriptive and quantitative data on break…

This study evaluates cold Gas-Oil Gravity Drainage (cGOGD) as a low-carbon enhanced oil recovery technique for a mature dual-reservoir carbonate field. Through detailed geological characterization and dynamic simulation, cGOGD provides stab…

Max Nutz, Johannes Schmidt

This paper presents PyPSA-AT, a fully open-source sector-coupled energy system model for Austria embedded in a multi-regional European context. It uses open data and builds on the existing pypsa-ecosystem, enabling transparent and reproduci…

John F. Ryder

This paper identifies a structural timing mismatch between demand growth and infrastructure deployment in the European energy transition, proposing a 'Bridging Stack' layered deployment model. It reframes demand-side coordination as infrast…

Max Nutz, Johannes Schmidt

This paper presents the development of PyPSA-AT, a fully open-source, sector-coupled energy system model for Austria. It introduces the concept of nationally tailored models that account for international effects, aiming to integrate into a…

Anuj Pathak

This repository provides code and data to reproduce figures from Pathak et al.'s paper on commonalities and differences in national pathways toward net-zero emissions. It enables comparative analysis of national mitigation scenarios for pol…

A. Al Riyami, D. Pledger

This paper demonstrates high-integrity temporary isolation technologies that eliminate or drastically reduce venting and flaring during gas pipeline maintenance. Real-world projects in Oman avoided 25,297 tCO2e. The approach provides a prac…

Cátia Sousa, Ana Brasão, T. Silva +1

This paper examines the application of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to the maritime transport sector in the EU. It identifies SDGs 7, 9, 12, 13, and 14 as most relevant, emphasizing clean energy and climate action. Strategies includ…

O. Ilyash, V. Khaustova, І. Hubarieva +1

This paper analyzes global decarbonization trends in the metallurgical industry, focusing on the shift from blast furnaces to DRI/EAF and hydrogen-based technologies, and the impact of carbon pricing. It highlights implications for Ukraine'…
