By employing a system Generalised Methods of Moments (GMM) for a sample of 138 developing countries over the period, 1990–2020, we find a U-shaped reverse relationship between renewable energy consumption and carbon emissions. The study reveals that beyond a threshold of 71.03, renewable energy consumption tends to increase carbon emissions. Similarly, the initial levels of carbon emissions reduce the use of renewable energy but beyond a 2.5 level of carbon emissions, renewable energy consumption begins to increase. We find that both the stock market and bond market reduce carbon emissions and enhance the levels of renewable energy consumption. We provide evidence to support that the capital market enhances the negative impact of renewable energy consumption on carbon emissions, while the corporate bond market magnifies the reductive effect of carbon emissions on renewable energy consumption.","PeriodicalId":14406,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Sustainable Energy","volume":"178 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135974886","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Dubai Frame, which is one of the most iconic buildings in Dubai, was chosen to act as a case study. A parametric model was developed for adjusting the opening ratios of the panel’s solid parts in the façade geometrics using the Grasshopper plugin in Rhino. Integrated Environmental Solutions (IES) simulation software was used and validated by calibration of the actual monthly electricity bills and real measurement of lux value against the predicted readings. The simulation assessed the total energy savings in terms of electricity and cooling loads and cost savings in terms of the KW per hour of electricity generated. In addition, it examined daylight illuminance levels for nine scenarios of the proposed kinetic system. The research has revealed several important results that include the finding that the optimal kinetic system results in 20% energy savings and 31% reduction in daylight illuminance levels while taking into account the current situation of the building and its aesthetic values.","PeriodicalId":14406,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Sustainable Energy","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135350452","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The problem of high computational load must be addressed so that the electrical distribution planner can practically use the PV hosting capacity prediction in actual situations. Therefore, this study developed a Markov-chain-based PV hosting capacity prediction method for high PV penetration using BESS. The proposed method is described in detail, followed by case and validation studies. The obtained hosting capacity was 123.58 kW, which increased to 3676.4 kW after the utility-scale BESS implementation. The results demonstrate that the proposed Markov-chain-based PV hosting capacity prediction method outperforms the Monte Carlo method, which is the most popular stochastic hosting capacity method, in terms of accuracy and computational cost.","PeriodicalId":14406,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Sustainable Energy","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135536892","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Norway is one such country, but some facilities still use gas power due to hydroelectric power capacity limitations. Therefore, using wind- or nuclear power to cut emissions are relevant alternatives. Therefore, a concept and feasibility study using wind- or nuclear power at the single largest emitter of climate gases in Norway, Melkøya LNG (Liquified Natural Gas) terminal is presented. Due to the intermittency of the wind power, the balancing/back-up power must also be included. After running 10,000 trials in a Monte Carlo simulation to handle the uncertainties of the alternatives, the results support the Nuclear alternative. Future key issues are the cost escalations of wind turbines, the cost of balancing- and backup power for the Wind alternative and the waste handling for the Nuclear alternative.","PeriodicalId":14406,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Sustainable Energy","volume":"53 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134958582","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Employing qualitative methods, the study delves into the multifaceted dynamics surrounding the expansion of Germany’s renewable energy sector, particularly in the considered 'energy state' of Brandenburg. Despite Germany’s commitment to renewable energy, the absence of a comprehensive legal framework governing conflicts over land use for solar energy installations poses significant challenges. Large-scale solar parks, designed for mass energy generation, often necessitate significant land acquisition, which sparks conflicts, particularly when the potential land serves agricultural purposes. The study underscores the shifting perception of land from socioecological wealth to a mere economic resource. The urgency of addressing ecological tipping points through energy transitions contrasts with the current scenario of unchecked investor and developer land acquisitions in pursuit of economic gains. This phenomenon, characterised as ‘invisible land-grabbing,’ has engendered a lack of trust in large-scale PV projects and potentially hampers solar PV approval processes. In conclusion, the article highlights the intricate interplay between energy transitions, land management, and socioecological well-being. It calls for a holistic approach to address the ethical, ecological, and economic implications of renewable energy expansion and land use.","PeriodicalId":14406,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Sustainable Energy","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134958572","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Over the last decade, calls for energy transition from unclean energy to clean ones have intensified. Consequently, the price of clean energy has been subsidised in Ghana but this is not enough as energy transition still entails considerable costs for households. The receipt of inward remittance improves households’ income which can aid their transition but literature in this regard is scanty. Applying the Special Regression Method to household data from the Ghana Living Standards Survey, we examine how the receipt of income remittance influences the choice of households’ cooking fuels. We found an increase in income remittance increases the odds of households adopting clean cooking fuels. We recommend that the government of Ghana undertake policies that improve household income to encourage the adoption of clean fuels and reduce environmental pollution.","PeriodicalId":14406,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Sustainable Energy","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136235234","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The economic feasibility is evaluated using the Net Present Value (NPV), considering the savings and the BESS investment cost. The result shows that the proposed approach is more robust than the conventional methods, such as removing the most expensive units, units with the highest cost reduction, units with the best economic return contribution, or the maximum number of units that can be replaced.","PeriodicalId":14406,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Sustainable Energy","volume":"79 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136153808","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It was also observed that some regions, especially regions in the northern part of the country even though showed the most favourable locations for solar-based green hydrogen projects with technical potential of over 1500 Mt/year, these regions may not qualify for a grid connected system based on the current electrification policy of the country due to the regions’ low population density and distance from the power grid network threshold.","PeriodicalId":14406,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Sustainable Energy","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134912160","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Based on four exemplary cases, our research covers four core energy transition sectors: energy supply (developing onshore wind power), heating/cooling (using shallow geothermal energy systems), transport (decarbonising the transport sector), and industry (decarbonising the chemical industry sector). Cross-case results illustrate where and how the 10-point frame of wicked problems manifests in the German energy transition. We do not argue that the German energy transition is inherently wicked, yet we stress the need to consider potentially wicked facets of energy transition challenges.
