Synthesizing high-performance solid or quasi-solid electrolytes with simple methods and common materials has long been a desire for lithium-ion batteries. Here, an easy-available composite polymer electrolyte (CPE) was prepared via UV curing of novel P(VEC-PEGMA) matrix and ionic plasticizer...

Iron oxide, as a promising anode material, has environmental friendliness, high theoretical capacitance and wide voltage window. Cobalt-doped iron oxide was supported on flexible carbon cloth (Co-Fe 2 O 3 @CC) via hydrothermal reaction. Cobalt doping changes the iron oxide crystal structure and...

This paper considers the design and performance of auction mechanisms used to deploy renewable energy in three emerging economies: Brazil, China, and India. The analysis focuses on the countries' experience in various dimensions, including price reductions, bidding dynamics, coordination with...

This report demonstrates that a "climate-smart" energy strategy is possible for countries in the East Asia region, with support from the international community. In the past three decades, the East Asia region has experienced the fastest economic growth in the world, accompanied by rapid...

Overwhelming evidence indicates that climate change, caused in large part by human activities, is already adversely impacting all people, with the very real prospect of worse to come. Nevertheless, a global treaty to curb carbon emissions remains elusive. In East Asia, all middle-income...

Surveys theories of regional growth, factor mobility, clustering, industrial restructuring, learning regions, and global supply chains from a political-economy perspective. Examines/critiques accounting frameworks including accounting for the underground economy, multipliers, linkages, and...
