The findings reveal that sugarcane, maize, and rice-based ethanol provide the most significant ecological benefits, with net CO<sub>2</sub> emissions of −1.61 kg/L, −0.19 kg/L, and 0.81 kg/L, primarily due to their superior carbon sequestration potential and installation of carbon storage plants in the distilleries, making them environmentally preferable to petrol. Additionally, ethanol demonstrates better combustion properties and a lower carbon intensity compared to petrol, thereby reinforcing its role as a cleaner alternative for energy. The study further highlights that integrating CO<sub>2</sub> capture technologies in ethanol distilleries can significantly reduce emissions, thereby enhancing both environmental sustainability and economic feasibility.

Consumer preferences and infrastructure availability are critical to BEV diffusion, especially for electric motorcycles. In addition, total motorcycle stocks are projected to decline after 2036 due to the potential mode shift to passenger cars as socioeconomic conditions improve.

Data is collected through an online survey conducted in five major cities in Indonesia. This study adapts the features of the double-bounded Contingent Valuation Method (CVM) to elicit preferences.

Specifically, membership in environmental communities increases the likelihood of adoption by 18.4 %, while exposure to peers with solar PV installations is linked to a 16.5 % higher probability of installation.

The work comprised a systematic literature review which identified 92 academic works inclusive of geography, scale and method of investigation and considers human development broadly, categorising 15 human development attributes, including Health, Education, Economics, Equality and Gender Equality. The review collated evidence on the electricity access-human development relationship revealing that of 1138 reported findings, 64.1 % indicated positive outcomes, 10.5 % negative and 25.5 % neutral (negative and neutral are collectively referred to as non-positive). Additional analysis applied the Energy Services Cascade as a framework to examine these non-positive findings and elucidate the barriers preventing positive outcomes. Why these non-positive results occurred are not explained in many of the primary studies, showing a need for more research. When the non-positive findings are analysed, the most common preventative barriers related to electricity supply quantity and quality, and service affordability. Barriers caused by a disconnect between what people value compared to what is being provided were also common. This work contributes insights into the importance of understanding how individual and community values influence the structural provision of electricity access. As the 2030 deadline for SDG targets looms closer, understanding these barriers provides targeted insights for policy action. This work reiterates the importance of tracking progress in electricity access that extends beyond a focus on electricity connections.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":49209,"journal":{"name":"Energy for Sustainable Development","volume":"88 ","pages":"Article 101770"},"PeriodicalIF":4.4,"publicationDate":"2025-06-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144307574","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The paper seeks to unpack empirically the evidence that counters the misconceptions around e-cooking among urban and peri-urban households in the Greater Accra Region and to assess their willingness to use and pay for e-cooking technologies. Two methodological approaches were employed to achieve these objectives. Firstly, standardized semi-controlled cooking tests were carried out with four local meals prepared using 4 fuel technologies. Secondly, a mixed method (quantitative and qualitative) approach was utilised, involving the survey of 1203 households from Adenta, Ga East, and Ga West Municipalities. The results revealed that at least 70 % of the households sampled perceived e-cooking to be more expensive than cooking with charcoal and LPG. However, the cooking experiment outcomes showed e-cooking to be far cheaper compared to cooking with charcoal and LPG. Households' willingness to use e-cooking technologies increased after they saw the results of the experiment. However, most of them demonstrated a lower willingness to pay values than the market value of the Electric Pressure Cooker due to lack of affordability.

The model is then applied to Nigeria and South Africa to evaluate the impact of national transmission expansion and pumped hydro energy storage (PHES) on variable renewable energy (VRE) penetration. Our results highlight that strategic combinations of storage and grid enhancements can significantly increase renewable utilization, reduce curtailment, and lower emissions. While PHES is particularly effective in solar-dominated contexts, transmission expansion plays a crucial role in overcoming regional grid constraints, as observed in South Africa. The findings emphasize the importance of country-specific strategies for VRE integration and reinforce the role of infrastructure planning in achieving Sustainable Development Goal 7 (SDG7), particularly Target 7.2 on increasing the share of renewables, and how this can potentially have beneficial indirect effects on Target 7.1, universal access, and 7.3, increased efficiency. This work introduces a novel application of the Calliope framework tailored to African countries, combining high-resolution national models with a flexible scenario-based methodology to quantify the role of PHES and grid expansion. Unlike existing studies, it leverages open-access, validated data and focuses on less-explored storage options such as PHES rather than BESS, thus filling a methodological and thematic gap in the current literature.

The energy consumption is influenced by multiple factors, including operating parameters, energy utilization methods, and energy-saving technologies in steel enterprises, with its variation levels exhibiting complexity and regularity. However, the underlying mechanisms driving energy consumption fluctuations remain unclear, and there is a lack of real-time collaborative control strategies adapted to actual production scenarios. Moreover, the energy-saving potential of existing technologies and the energy-saving effects after technological retrofit remain uncertain. To address these challenges, this study develops an energy consumption simulation and diagnostic model based on both mechanism and data-driven approaches. The model simulates the fluctuation trends of energy consumption and identifies key influencing factors, thereby providing targeted operational optimization suggestions. Taking the coking process as a case study, a hierarchical diagnostic approach is applied to evaluate the energy consumption level by selecting the minimum energy consumption value for 30 days as the benchmark. The analysis identifies that the coal composition is the most effective controllable factor. Adjusting key coal parameters is expected to reduce energy consumption by 3.60 kgce/t. Furthermore, deploying new energy-saving technologies can further decrease energy consumption by 4.27 kgce/t.
