We study the impact of fossil fuel subsidy removal on presidential popularity using difference-indifference approaches and a stylized theoretical model. Analyzing macro level data for two subsidy removal events in Mexico and Bolivia in the early 2010s, we find evidence of a negative impact on...

The conflict between Russia and Ukraine, along with the imposition of energy sanctions on Russian energy sources, has prompted a reassessment of the global energy market. Utilizing the difference in differences model, this study investigates the financial performance disparities among fossil...

The transition toward carbon neutrality in China necessitates integrating more renewable energy sources (RES) into the power grid. However, a high share of RES can destabilize the grid, making it crucial to add clean, flexible power sources, such as battery energy storage systems (BESS) and...

This study explores the nexus between electricity consumption, fossil fuel use, renewable energy adoption, population growth, GDP, and environmental pollution in Indonesia, incorporating open innovation dynamics as a novel dimension of analysis. The study uncovers significant long-term...

This paper proposes a novel index, ECI (Electricity Climate-Compatibility Index), to measure global fossil fuel electricity generation alignment with climate targets. Net anthropogenic carbon dioxide emissions (CO2) must approach zero by mid-century to stabilise the mean temperature to well...

This study presents an archetype-based approach to designing effective strategies for low-carbon transitions in the power sector. To achieve global energy transition goals, a renewable energy transition is critical, and understanding diverse energy landscapes across different countries is...

The aim of this paper is to investigate the role of green finance on sustainability in Germany and the European Union (EU). This aim will be achieved by examining recent data in this field via a panel fixed effect regression model. When comparing Germany and the EU in terms of the value of...
