This note examines the state of carbon farming (CF) policies in the European Union (EU), highlighting their potential to deliver significant public benefits, such as improved soil health, air quality, and climate mitigation. The existing mechanisms for encouraging carbon sequestration and...

Because of its important role in China, many scholars have addressed the decarbonization of the Yangtze River Delta Region (YRDR). However, little work has been conducted on appropriate ways to transform the YRDR power system into a carbon-neutral system. This study develops an optimization...

Whereas hydrogen is currently a marginal energy carrier, the aim of the EU is to trigger low-carbon hydrogen production that covers around 10 percent of EU’s energy needs by 2050. If this comes true, it will be an energy revolution. We study competition between green and blue hydrogen by...
