Carbon taxes tend to have low acceptance rates. One frequent concern is that they could have a regressive effect on income distribution. We investigate how social cushioning and other revenue recycling options affect income distribution and efficiency, and ...
Huge amount of energy resources greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions is devoted to the built environment. Therefore, an accurate assessment method of these indicators is compulsory. To take advantage of the temporal variation in the primary energy use and associ ...
In a climate constrained future, hybrid energy-economy model coupling gives additional insight into interregional competition, trade, industrial delocalisation and overall macroeconomic consequences of decarbonising the energy system. Decarbonising the ene ...
Energy needs at the global level are gigantic and steadily increasing while the need to reduce carbon emissions is vital if catastrophic climate change is to be avoided. In the Global South, a large part of the population still lacks access to energy, whic ...
Due to different temporal combinations of energy generation processes, the global warming potential (GWP) of energy supply evolves constantly. Despite this, the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions related to the energy consumption in buildings are commonly asse ...
In many developing countries, SMEs are the backbone of economic and industrial activity, contributing to approximately 75% to industrial activity. With increasing resource prices, social awareness and environmental regulations, it is becoming difficult for ...
