The objective of this study is to conduct an analysis of the efficiency and productivity of a thermal power generation plant in the Indian public sector. This analysis has been carried out using the non-parametric Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) methodology, focusing on the period from 2014-15...

This study demonstrates that heat disproportionately impairs human capital accumulation among low-performing students compared with their high-performing peers, using nationwide examination data from 22 million students in Japan. Given the strong correlation between academic performance and...

This paper examines how prolonged exposure to heat affects the labor force's ability to work in the short and long run. Linking administrative public health insurance records for one-third of the German working-age population to the quasi-experimental occurrence of heat waves, we provide the...

Thermal energy storage equipped concentrated solar power facilities provide the combined benefits of offering operational flexibility and producing renewable energy. The study examines the synergy nexus of energy transition, green financing and renewable energy intensity in China based on...

The expansion of heat pumps drives the electrification of the heating sector which is important to achieve Germany's ambitious climate targets. This paper examines the impact of heat pumps in combination with thermal storage on the flexibility of the German electricity system in 2030, focusing...
