This paper systematically reviews the application of power electronics technology in new energy power generation such as wind and solar, in the context of China's carbon peak and neutrality targets. It identifies challenges including grid i…

Tian Zhang, Shaohui Zou

This study analyzes China's carbon and energy markets (coal, electricity, new energy) from July 2021 to January 2026, examining how policy interventions affect volatility spillovers and dynamic correlations. Using GARCH-DCC and rolling-wind…

Hui Li

Using panel data from the China Family Panel Studies (CFPS) and macroeconomic indicators, this study finds that digitalization significantly reduces per capita household carbon emissions. However, it creates a differentiation effect: direct…

Liu H, Wei Li, Hengxu Zhang

This Perspective develops an interpretive elaboration of the Cyber–Physical–Social Systems in Energy (CPSSE) framework to understand how distributed energy becomes governable. It introduces a vocabulary linking uncertainty, staged coordinat…

China's carbon neutrality goal requires a shift to solar and wind, but compound low-solar and low-wind (LSLW) energy droughts pose risks. This study analyzes socioeconomic exposure to LSLW extremes under future climate scenarios, finding th…

Xiaodong Yang, Grzegorz Mentel, U. Shahzad +2

Using panel data from Chinese non-financial A-share listed firms (2011-2023), this study empirically shows that heightened public climate risk attention significantly improves corporate ESG performance. The effect is strengthened by female …

Shen Xu, Qiuguo He, Tao Luo +4

This study proposes a rapid optimization framework for high-rise office block design elements to reduce carbon emissions, considering perspectives from three climate zones in China. The framework enables early-stage carbon performance optim…

Li Z, Lu‐Tao Zhao, Zhi Qu +4

This study develops a multi-agent simulation model (ECMAS) to analyze the interaction between electricity and carbon markets. It evaluates the impact of gradual auction introduction and quota reduction on carbon price stability and low-carb…

Yujie Lang, Shiyi Zhu, Mingchao Yin +2

Using Chinese provincial panel data (2012-2022), this study examines how digital government construction and high-quality development of the low-altitude economy (LAE) affect regional energy intensity. Employing spatial DID and double machi…

Xiaowen Wang, Bowen Yu, Yì Wáng +2

This study analyzes the spatiotemporal evolution of farmland carbon effects (emissions, absorption, net sequestration) in Jiangsu, China from 2011-2021 using SBM, entropy-weighted TOPSIS, and GM(1,1) prediction. Results show an overall upwa…

Wanyue Xuan, Rijia Ding, RuiYing Wang +1

This paper analyzes the impact of carbon pricing on the low-carbon transition of China's coal-fired power industry using an integrated resource planning model. It finds that carbon price changes significantly affect capacity mix and CO2 emi…

Ang Xuan, Xinwei Shen

This paper proposes a cooperative bargaining-based approach for planning integrated electricity and gas systems with CCUS. It aims to balance the interests of multiple stakeholders while achieving efficient system design and carbon reductio…

Yunxia Long, Yaning Chen, Yongchang Liu +1

This study quantifies CO2 reduction benefits of wind power in China using a dynamic assessment framework. It finds cumulative reductions of 3,672.41 Mt CO2 over two decades, generating ~$273 billion in climate benefits. By 2060, cumulative …

Mingjie Jia, Chutong Wang, Mojie Li +1

This study empirically evaluates the environmental, health, and cost impacts of clean heating policy in rural northern China. Using household-level data, it quantifies the multiple benefits of clean energy transition, including air quality …

Guidong Zhang, Jianlong Wang, Yong Liu

This study examines how extreme high temperatures affect the energy transition, exploring whether they cause disruptions or promote shifts towards cleaner energy. It provides insights into the resilience of energy systems under climate stre…

Patrick T. Sekoai, Olivier Habimana

This review critically examines the socioeconomic opportunities for integrating biochar into South Africa's waste-to-resource systems and proposes a strategy for widespread adoption. It finds that biochar has a dual function: climate change…

Xiaoqian Che, Shaokun Li

This paper identifies four systemic challenges in forest carbon credit systems (subjective additionality, overestimated permanence, inadequate leakage accounting, neglected biophysical effects) and proposes a comprehensive accounting framew…

Xiaohui Chen, Yanxue Zhang, Xuerui Qin

Using data from 3,562 Chinese A-share listed firms (2008-2023) and resource conservation theory, this study finds an inverted U-shaped effect of climate change pressure on ESG performance: moderate pressure improves ESG, but excessive press…

Ding Feng, Dengao Li, Xiaojie An +1

This paper addresses multi-objective optimization in microgrid energy management amid the global energy transition. It constructs a three-dimensional objective function covering economic cost, carbon emissions, and tie-line power fluctuatio…
