In order to pave the way to its production and trade, it is required to assess its main advantages and challenges, which are not only energy-related but involve also techno-economic, social, environmental, and geopolitical aspects. In line with this, the current article aims to provide a Multi-criteria Spatial Decision Support System to investigate the suitability of North African countries with respect to the production of solar-based hydrogen and its potential trade, and to apply it to Tunisia, as one of the most promising countries for becoming a competitive hydrogen exporting leader. Combining the Analytic Hierarchy Process and the Geographical Information System, this study focuses on evaluating the land suitability for solar hydrogen production at a country level, serving as the foundation for a methodology applicable across the entire North African region. After defining ten different criteria, these are spatially analysed and then prioritized according to different experts’ preferences, so that a final suitability map is obtained. The added value of the study is the inclusion of social and geopolitical criteria in this kind of assessments, often focused on techno-economic parameters alone.</p><h3>Results</h3><p>The suitability map allows to classify the majority of the Tunisian areas as moderately or highly suitable, even if the most favourable areas in terms of availability of resources are often negatively influenced by the geopolitical or economic assessment. The sensitivity analysis has also proved the high suitability of Tunisia, with no areas assessed as very low suitable even if the different criteria are extremized.</p><h3>Conclusions</h3><p>Among the several influencing factors addressing the suitability for green hydrogen uptake, this article makes it possible to explore the social and geopolitical externalities, as well as the environmental and techno-economic dimensions. Even if stakeholders’ preferences affect the final results, the sensitivity analysis makes it possible to test their robustness. Supporting the adoption of new clean technologies towards the carbon-neutrality target, the methodological framework could be applied for other countries and also tailored on other specific technological pathways.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":539,"journal":{"name":"Energy, Sustainability and Society","volume":"15 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2025-04-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://energsustainsoc.biomedcentral.com/counter/pdf/10.1186/s13705-025-00512-4","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143793175","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper explores the role of advanced computational methods in the transition of cities to climate neutrality, with a focus on energy supply and transportation systems. Central to this are recent advances in artificial intelligence, particularly machine learning, which offer enhanced capabilities for analyzing and processing large, heterogeneous urban data. By integrating these computational tools, cities can develop and optimize complex models that enable real-time, data-driven decisions. Such strategies offer the potential to significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions, improve energy efficiency in key infrastructures and strengthen the sustainability and resilience of cities.

Similarly, traffic flow predictions were made based on historical and weather-related data, providing insights for improved urban mobility. In the context of logistics and public transportation, computational optimization techniques have demonstrated their potential to reduce congestion, emissions and operating costs, underlining their central role in creating more sustainable and efficient urban environments.</p><h3>Conclusions</h3><p>The integration of cutting-edge technologies, advanced data analytics and real-time decision-making processes represents a transformative pathway to developing sustainable, climate-resilient urban environments.

While extensive research has been conducted on this topic, the lack of a unified framework for integrating various data and approaches from existing studies remains a challenge. This inconsistency makes it difficult to compare findings across different contexts and impedes the development of a comprehensive understanding of the factors influencing acceptance. This review aims to address this challenge by systematically evaluating the statistical methods used in ten large-scale studies on public acceptance of energy technologies in Western Europe published between 2012 and 2023. This Work allows researchers to more effectively compare methodologies and results, offering a transparent and structured approach for analysis, thereby enhancing the overall methodological assessment.</p><h3>Main text</h3><p>The review of ten large-scale studies identified valuable insights and opportunities for improving the analysis of public acceptance of energy technologies. Traditional methods like regression analysis have provided a solid foundation, highlighting key factors such as perceived benefits, trust, and attitudes. However, the review also revealed potential for growth by integrating more advanced techniques like AI-supported analysis, sentiment analysis, and agent-based modelling. These newer approaches offer the ability to capture complex, non-linear relationships and provide predictive insights. The introduction of statistical pattern graphics significantly enhances the clarity and comparability of methodologies, helping researchers to better understand and improve their approaches, ultimately supporting more accurate and impactful studies.</p><h3>Conclusions</h3><p>The review emphasizes the need for a unified analytical framework that integrates diverse methods, including both traditional statistical techniques and emerging approaches such as machine learning and sentiment analysis, to enhance the comparability of studies on public acceptance of energy technologies. By consolidating these varied methodologies into a cohesive framework, researchers can generate more consistent, robust insights that account for the complexities of public attitudes across different contexts.

It is anticipated that by 2050, solar energy generation will have increased by a factor of 15, which will result in a considerable expansion of the land area required for photovoltaic (PV) power plants on a global scale. An increase in the efficiency of PV modules and an optimisation of the space usage for PV power plant construction will contribute to a reduction in the expected environmental impact on land use. This study represents an empirical investigation into the European development of specific energy and area-relevant key performance indicators of free-field PV power plants. It employs a comprehensive sample drawn from diverse European geographical locations from different installation years.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Methods&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;p&gt;This study investigated the evolution of various location-independent and location-dependent system parameters over time, using a sample of 107 free-field PV power plants across diverse European regions from 2006 to 2022 related to the fenced area. The investigations concentrated on the land use per installed power, land use per module area, land use per generated electrical energy, generated electrical energy per PV module area, energy density, capacity factor, and power density. The determined data provide the first European average life cycle inventory data, disaggregated by year and location, for environmental life cycle assessment. To facilitate a comparison of the system parameters of PV power plants with those of other renewable energy technologies, a further database was employed, including 89 power plants from the biomass, wind power, geothermal energy, solar thermal energy, and photovoltaic sectors. The selected samples were compiled from this database to compare the area-specific energy yields of both data sources.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Results&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;p&gt;The European trends for free-field PV power plants demonstrate a 60% reduction in specific land use per installed power and land use per generated electrical energy over the study period.

At the mounting design level, the land use per module area for conventional fixed-tilt row systems decreased by 30%. Overall, the mean land usage of all the considered PV power plants is threefold greater than the module area over the entire study period.
