This paper explores the potential impacts of climate change and mitigation policies on the Euro Area, considering the uncertainty and heterogeneity in both climate and economic systems. Using the MATRIX model, a multi-sector and multi-agent macroeconomic model, we simulate various climate...

The Russian attack on Ukraine in February 2022 shook continental geopolitics and led to a major shift in EU energy policy. The necessary speed of the combined diversification away from the Russian energy sources, fossil fuel phase-out and mass scale-up of low-carbon energy and technologies are...

The global energy crisis that began in fall 2021 and the following spike in energy price constitute a major challenge for the world economy which risks undermining the post-COVID-19 recovery. In this paper, we develop and validate a new macroeconomic agent-based model with an endogenous energy...

The shift away from fossil fuels needed to reduce CO2 emissions requires the use of renewable carbon and energy sources, including biomass in the bioeconomy. Already today, the bioeconomy has a significant share in the EU economy with traditionally bio-based sectors. For the future, the energy,...

The rapid transformations and developments experienced today have increased the importance of energy resources and sustainable energy. In this context, the success and profitability of the activities of companies engaged in energy production and distribution is an important topic. This study,...

In this study, we examine the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on global economic activity, the stock market, and the energy sector considering the sizable damaging impacts in these crucial aspects. Our results, based on the structural vector autoregression (SVAR) model for the data from 21...

This paper explores the potential impacts of climate change and mitigation policies on the Euro Area, considering the uncertainty and heterogeneity in both climate and economic systems. Using the MATRIX model, a multi-sector and multi-agent macroeconomic model, we simulate various climate...

Renewable energy communities involve various agents who decide to jointly invest in renewable production units and storage. This paper examines how these communities interact with the energy system and can decrease its overall cost. First, we show that a renewable energy community can contribute...

This paper presents a proximal study of energy transition in a large state-owned enterprise. Organizational change is the prerequisite for energy transition in a company that has historically understood its own identity in the remunerative oil gas industry. The methodology of the research is a...

This study aimed to evaluate the components of a fintech ecosystem for distributed energy investments. A new decision-making model was created using multiple stepwise weight assessment ratio analysis and elimination and choice translating reality techniques based on quantum spherical fuzzy sets....

Energy and the energy transition associated with its operation requires the creation and implementation of innovations, without which effective changes in the energy balance and greenhouse gas emissions will not be possible. This is particularly important in emerging and developing economies,...

Deep decarbonisation pathways can enable the state of New South Wales (NSW) in Australia to reach a net-zero emissions reduction goal and contribute to global mitigation efforts to limit temperature rise to 1.5 °C by mid-century. This paper explores minimum cost solutions for achieving the...

Energy made an outsized contribution to the recent inflationary wave in Europe: On average, 50 percent of year-on-year inflation in 2022 was directly due to energy, the vast majority of which was due to fossil fuel price rises. Additional inflationary effects followed from indirect impacts on...

Access to reliable and sustainable electricity is still precluded for a large share of global population living in rural areas of developing countries, especially in sub-Saharan Africa. Hybrid microgrids are considered a suitable solution for providing affordable and reliable access to...

Owing to increased energy consumption, the growth of various sectors of economies has the tendency to increase carbon dioxide emissions, a major component of greenhouse gases that causes climate change and global warming. A suggested panacea is to increase the development and usage of renewable...

Deutschland steht vor der Herausforderung sich zügig aus der Abhängigkeit der fossilen Energien zu lösen. Dazu ist ein umfassender Umbau des Energiesystems notwendig. Die Windenergie an Land gehört zu den wichtigsten Erzeugungsquellen, die in großem Maßstab entwickelt werden müssen, um...

The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted the financial performance of companies in different sectors. One of the most important sectors affected is the energy sector. Therefore, this research study aims to conduct a financial performance evaluation of companies in the Saudi energy sector in 2019,...

To further constrain the carbon emission of the integrated energy system (IES) and reduce the comprehensive cost, an optimal scheduling model to balance economy and low carbon in a real-time price (RTP) environment was proposed. In this model, a low carbon operation strategy considering a reward...

This paper empirically studies the financial performance of energy asset allocation strategies under green and brown preferences. We assume that green investors and traditional or brown energy investors behave differently in their investment decisions. Thus, our optimal portfolio choice is...

In this brief presentation, the progressive construction of energy and the global environment as an issue in terms of International Relations will be highlighted. Also, the expansion of its governance in terms of scales, players, and mechanisms, with a focus on one of the most pressing...

Der vorliegende Beitrag analysiert die im Energiesektor erfolgten Ministererlaubnisse vor dem Hintergrund der Betrachtung der Gemeinwohlbegründung „Energieversorgungssicherheit in Deutschland“. Anhand der vertieften Untersuchung des Falles E.ON/Ruhrgas als zuletzt ministererlaubter Fusion...
