Increasing research interests in energy performance contracting (EPC) has resulted in a large number of publications over the past decade. However, very limited attempts have been made to map the global research in this area. To identify the state of the field and trends in EPC research, the VOSviewer software package was used to conduct a series of content analyses and examine global patterns among publications, including the distribution of core authors and institutions, high-frequency categories and keywords, journal and author contributions, highly cited papers, etc. Based on a systematica

The aim of this paper is to examine the connections among time-frequency dependencies associated with electrical power consumption (EPC), economic growth, and financial development (FD) in Portugal, Italy, Greece, and Spain during the period 1970–2014. Using monthly data collected from the World Bank (WB) and Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis (FRED), the wavelet analysis is applied, which allows for assessing the co-movement between these variables. As a first step, a classical time-domain approach is used to alternatively test the connection, including unit-root tests and cointegration. To ac

Eco-province construction (EPC) innovated by China is an important approach for regional sustainable development. The core of this paper relates to how to quantitatively evaluate EPC performance and explore its influencing factors. We propose regional total-factor eco-efficiency as a proxy of EPC performance and apply the methods of the SBM directional distance function, the Theil index, hot-spot analysis, and the Tobit model to investigate spatial-temporal evolutionary characteristics and influencing factors of Shandong’s EPC performance from 2003 to 2017.

At present, the competition to participate in international projects through the EPC general contracting mode is becoming more and more fierce. Accurate identification and objective classification of risk factors in EPC projects are the prerequisites to ensure the success of the project. In order to improve the research level of China's EPC project risk management, based on the relevant journal literature and expert interviews on the risk management of EPC general contracting projects, the existing research results are summarized and analyzed.

As the core link of Engineering Procurement Construction (EPC) projects, procurement involves a huge amount of money and has a wide range of influence. Once the procurement risks of EPC projects occur, it is easy to cause a domino effect, which can have a huge impact on the cost, schedule and quality of the construction project. Therefore, this paper took international EPC projects as the research object, identifying 25 risk factors related to procurement through case analysis, literature analysis and expert interviews.

Abstract Background Oncologists’ fear of taking away hope from patients when proposing early palliative care (EPC) is a barrier to the implementation of this model. This study explores hope perceptions among bereaved caregivers of onco-hematologic patients who received EPC. Materials and Methods Open-ended questionnaires were administered to 36 primary caregivers of patients who received EPC (26 solid and 10 hematologic cancer patients; mean age: 51.4 years, range age: 20-74), at 2 cancer centers, 2 months to 3 years after a patient death.

The objective of this study is to determine whether or not housing with energy performance certificates (EPC) have positive premiums in the sales price. For this purpose, a systematic review, meta-analysis, and meta-regression of prior studies were conducted in order to determine whether the existence of an EPC influences sales price.

Abstract:
The “trillion-dollar era” of megaprojects has increased the demand for the scope of mega infrastructure. To address the requirement for high-quality “investment, construction, and operation” integration, the EPC and PPP models must be combined. The complexity of megaprojects has resulted in the complexity of project risk variables under the new model. However, few existing studies have undertaken in-depth studies on the risk of EPC + PPP megaprojects. The interplay and dynamic evolution of risk factors, in particular, have not been taken into account. This research intends to fill this gap by

However, most current research on project management is limited to the analysis of a single project, and the conclusions obtained cannot be extended to more aspects.

Abstract:
Stream sediments were found to regulate the soluble reactive phosphorus (SRP) of stream water by geochemical processes. This conclusion was based on sediment analysis, laboratory sorption experiments, and measurement of the equilibrium phosphorus concentration (EPC). EPC is the concentration of P in the water at which there is neither sorption nor desorption of P by the sediments. At low flow conditions, streamwater SRP was highly correlated with EPC at six sites along Hoxie Gorge Creek (r = 0.979). EPC was inversely related to the ionic strength of the equilibrating solution, with Ca2+ produc
