Reducing energy dependence in the ECCU entails improving energy efficiency and shifting from fossil fuels to renewable energy. This energy transition will affect the transmission of and vulnerability to shocks (e.g., from natural disasters or commodity markets) while at the same time helping to...

The rapid shift towards renewable energy sources underscores the urgent need for comprehensive and timely solutions to mitigate carbon emissions. This study provides a detailed analysis of the factors that led to a reduction in carbon emissions in a panel of eighty-three nations, including...

Changing weather patterns pose a fundamental challenge to electricity systems reliant on water resources. Using two decades of plant-level generation and fuel input data matched to hydrological basins in Chile, we show that local droughts reduce hydro output by about 20% on average and trigger...
