Abstract:
Since carbon neutrality requires reducing dependence on fossil fuels, an accurate analysis of final energy consumption is essential for an effective transition. According to major international reports, thermal energy accounts for approximately 50% of final energy consumption. However, in the Republic of Korea (Korea), the proportion of thermal energy, limited to heat supply, is only 1-2%. This discrepancy, due to a lack of national statistics and policies on thermal energy, highlights a significant difference from the international reality where thermal energy constitutes a major part of energy demand, posing challenges for formulating effective policies for carbon neutrality. This study aims to recalculate Korea’s national thermal energy statistics from an energy consumption perspective, using only the nationally recognized Energy Statistical Yearbook and its revised energy balance data, based on 2018 data. Final energy was categorized into nonelectric and electric thermal energy, and thermal energy consumption was calculated for the industrial, building, and transportation sectors. The key findings indicate that thermal energy accounted for 55% of final energy, with 46% from the non-electric sector and 9% from the electric sector. By sector, the industrial sector accounted for 37% and the building sector for 18%. Additionally, 68% of total energy in the industrial sector and 32% in the building sector was attributed to thermal energy. These figures closely align with estimates from previous studies that used more complex methodologies, demonstrating high reliability. The results suggest that thermal energy, particularly in the industrial and building sectors, should be prioritized for reduction and transition in the pursuit of carbon neutrality. This recalculation method of thermal energy statistics could enhance understanding of thermal energy, contributing to more efficient policy development and the establishment of an information system.

Abstract:
Abstract Energy is the foundation of human economic and social development. Energy demand is closely related to energy security and national economic development, and fossil energy consumption is positively correlated with carbon emissions. This research takes a coastal city in eastern China as the example and takes the data of energy consumption in 2019 as the baseline to project the future energy consumption. The study was conducted using the Long-Range Energy Alternatives Planning System (LEAP) software and this paper develops a LEAP model with data of GDP, population, industrial structure, vehicle ownership, energy intensity, as well as power generation efficiency and other factors. The LEAP model is extrapolated until the year 2035 to acquire the predictions of the city’s economic sectors: agriculture sector, industry sector, construction sector, transportation sector, residential sector, other sectors and local electricity production sector. The results show that the trend of energy demand in various sectors is differential. Among these sectors, the energy demand of agriculture and construction increase first and then decrease, the trend of energy demand in industry and transportation increase steadily, and the energy consumption of residential sector almost have no change.

Abstract:
The recent surge in publications addressing household energy efficiency and renewable energy highlights their vital roles in managing national decarbonization and green power transition. The study aims to analyze the research trends in this field to comprehend their significance in shaping residential decarbonization changes. Bibliometric and visualization analyses are applied to bridge existing knowledge gaps by focusing on technology and managerial mechanisms for implementing energy efficiency and renewable energy concepts. Leveraging the Scopus database and VOSviewer 1.6.19 software, the study covers energy efficiency publications from 1978 to 2023 and renewable energy papers from 1984 to 2023. The study clusters academic articles in two ways: keyword co-occurrence and co-authorship analyses. The first one reveals the merging of renewable energy and energy efficiency studies, covering sustainable development, heating/cooling mechanisms, and emerging technology trends. While both topics share commonalities like smart grids and the Internet of Things, renewable energy clusters spotlight specific areas such as bioenergy and wind/solar power. Co-authorship analysis highlights a notable increase in countries considering research topics, reflecting growing international collaboration. Leading contributors include the United States, the United Kingdom, China, Germany, and India. This study equips scientists with a systematic understanding of the evolution and latest research trends in managing household energy efficiency and renewable energy transformations. It aids in identifying promising research directions, further advancing these crucial fields. AcknowledgmentsThe publication was prepared in the framework of the research project “Formation of economic mechanisms to increase energy efficiency and provide sustainable development of renewable energy in Ukraine’s households” (No. 0122U001233), funded by the National Research Foundation of Ukraine.

Abstract:
The housing stock has a major share in energy consumption and CO2 emissions in the Netherlands. CO2 emissions increased 2.5% year-on-year in the first quarter of 2018. Higher CO2 emissions were principally due to raised gas consumption for heating in the residential and service sector1. Energy efficiency renovations can contribute considerably in reducing energy consumption and achieving the EU and national energy efficiency targets. However, based on recent research2, the renovation rates in the Dutch social housing sector are not adequate to achieve the energy efficiency targets. Moreover, the deep renovation rates are almost negligible in this sector. The Dutch housing stock consists of the owner-occupied sector and rental sector (social housing and private rental houses) with shares equal to 69.4% and 30.6%, respectively. Considering the major share of the housing sector in energy consumption, the aim of the current study is to evaluate and compare the renovation rates in these sectors and the potential contribution of each one in achieving the energy efficiency targets. By renovation rate, we mean the percentage changes in the number of the identical houses moving from one energy label to the more efficient energy labels. The Netherlands Enterprise Agency (RVO) and Statistics Netherlands (CBS) databases are used to conduct the statistical analysis. The results show that the renovation rates are almost the same in these three sectors, despite the expectation of much higher renovation rates in the social housing sector.

Abstract:
Abstract The industry sector in many countries has a significant role in reaching national long-term emission reductions, energy efficiency and renewable energy targets. New technologies, wide implementation of energy efficiency measures and smart energy management are needed for the industry to ensure local and global competitiveness and reduce emissions. Since the industrial sector is often comprised of sub-sectors that are unique and with local specifics, this paper focuses on three of them, taking Latvia as the case. The sectors are: manufacture of wood and wood products, non-metallic mineral products, as well as food products and tobacco. These sub-sectors together consume around 80 % of the total final energy use in the country’s industrial sector. Comprehensive analysis and decomposition of the sub-sectors was made to identify future development pathways. TIMES model was used to elaborate a process-oriented modelling approach to analyze the impact of measures defined in the National Energy and Climate Plan until 2030 as well to gauge the impact of additional measures. Results show that these measures promote the use of renewable energy and improve energy efficiency, however it is necessary to set new measures and activities for the period beyond to reach climate neutrality by 2050.

Abstract:
The energy consumption and carbon emission of Chinese households is growing rapidly and will continue to do so for the near future. Currently, Chinese energy policies mainly focus on the industrial sector instead of the residential sector. Among industrialized countries, Germany has performed relatively well in the residential sector, which can provide valuable lessons for China. This paper investigates the policy-making, implementation, and resulting patterns of Chinese and German residential energy policies from a multi-level perspective. The policy system study provides a holistic view over the factors influencing residential energy sustainability. The main findings are: (1) the German residential energy policy system follows a hybrid policy model, combining top-down and bottom-up policy designs, with more demand-side or market-oriented policies, and a high level of public participation, resulting in remarkable headway toward sustainability in the residential energy sector; and (2) the Chinese energy policy system is characterized by top-down, supply-side oriented market policies with limited public participation. The policy implication of this study for China is to shift its top-down policy paradigm to a hybrid policy model that facilitates public participation in the residential energy sector.

Abstract:
Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited<br>This thesis explores the causes of Russian foreign policy towards Georgia. It argues that the Russian Federation continues to pursue a policy which weakens the sovereignty of the Caucasus. The main priority of this thesis is to identify why the Russian Federation seems to be pursuing a set of policies that economically and politically weaken the sovereignty of Georgia. Therefore, this thesis examines the forces and factors of Russian domestic politics that drive Russian national interests towards the Caucasus. The analysis focuses on one particular issue-area: the role of the economic elite in shaping Russia's domestic and foreign policies vis-a-vis the state in the electricity sector. In focusing on the energy policies of the Russian Federation, this thesis reveals the negative consequences for Georgia's sovereignty that result from a strong Russian influence in the region. This thesis analyzes how Russian national interests towards Georgia challenge the latter to establish autonomous decisionmaking with regard to its foreign policy and to exercise its own authority through an exclusive competence in internal affairs of the state. In conclusion, this thesis offers policy prescriptions on how Georgia might best preserve its sovereignty with respect to the Russian Federation in terms of energy dependency.<br>Civilian, Ministry of Defense, Georgia

Accordingly, using VOSviewer v.1.6.10 and Google Trends tools, the author investigated the theoretical foundations of the study of the structural and functional environment of the smart grids concept formation and development. It allowed us to identify and describe patterns in the following dimensions. Evolutionary: in this context, four stages of the evolution of scientific and public interest in smart grids were identified and characterized during the period 2008 – august 2020. Geographical: analysis of this dimension of smart grids allowed the development of a cluster of international research networks to study smart grids' deployment. The thesis found that scientists from EU countries have the largest number of joint publications. In contrast, American researchers' publications are mononational (prepared without foreign scientists' participation), although the absolute number of studies conducted by scientists from the United States makes them undisputed leaders. Semantic: the research identified five cross-sectoral study clusters and the most relevant areas related to smart grids. These areas are renewable energy, energy storage and electrification, energy management, and information technologies. The research also revealed trends in changing the direction of smart grids' economic analysis from approaches to tariff formation and commercialization of smart grids to study smart grids' global economic model and their technical and economic efficiency energy consumption patterns. The thesis proposed a scientific and methodological approach to assessing the impact of smart grids' policy on country's socio-economic development. It was done through a systematic combination of tools to verify the nature of data distribution, equality of sample variances, comparison of their means, and regression analysis of time data. It allowed to empirically confirm the importance of developing smart grids in the economy's energy sector to increase its social and economic development. A methodological basis for a comparative analysis of existing systems for evaluating smart grids' efficiency was formed. The approach was based on identifying functionally significant components of smart grids and the most relevant of them under the objectives of the energy sector of the national economy. These components are sustainability, information, economic, technical, communicative efficiency, environmental friendliness, and electric transport infrastructure in smart grids. It allowed to evaluating and ranking the existing systems for measuring the efficiency of smart grids in state regulation of the economy's energy sector under the standard EU energy policy requirements. The integrated approach to smart grids` efficiency evaluation was developed. The proposed method takes into account the purpose of the assessment. It allowed for a more accurate evaluation of potential or existing smart grids and measured smart grids development's effectiveness at the regional and national levels. Establishing the optimal number of areas for assessing smart grids, formalization of the methodological basis for their quantification, aggregation of indicators by groups and areas of assessment, taking into account direct and indirect effects, opportunities for further optimization of smart grids, and ensuring their compliance with the strategic task of building an integrated energy centered model in Ukraine was presented as a component of the integrated evaluation approach. Designed roadmap for developing smart grids in Ukraine is based on benchmarking analysis of leading countries' experience. This roadmap formalizes a list of specific measures to develop domestic energy infrastructure, regulatory interventions, and policies' openness to energy-efficient solutions. The roadmap explains each stakeholders` necessary activity according to the smart grid development process's main stages. These stages are adapting distributed energy generation to the energy system, creating decentralized and dispersed energy networks. The roadmap is based on a combination of phased development and localization of smart grids. It provides for the mass deployment of homogeneous smart energy technologies and the simultaneous implementation of pilot projects for smart grids. An organizational and communication scheme of stakeholder interaction is a tool to activate drivers for smart grids. It helps to implement energy-efficient smart grid projects and support their scaling to the national economy level. The scheme uses as a base the modification of the smart grid maturity model. The organizational and communication scheme promotes the integration of value chains, increases asset management efficiency, and creates the preconditions for further expansion of smart grids.

The bibliometric and trends analysis allowed identifying and explain the interest's change in the issues of energy efficiency of the national economy, the main evolution stages of the energy efficiency theory, clustering of international scientific alliances and directions of interdisciplinary energy efficiency research in the context of national economy transition to carbon-neutral model. The government energy policy should base on the targets of carbon-neutral development of the national economy. Energy efficiency is a balance between indicators of the energy sector development at which availability, reliability, economy, and ecological friendliness of energy resources were provided to reach stable rates of the national economic growth and increase competitiveness and satisfaction of society's needs. The economic, environmental, and energy parameters of the national economy's energy efficiency, which were based on targets and indicators of the carbon-neutral model of economic development, were directly and indirectly affected by institutional, social information, regulatory, investment, and innovation determinants. Their synergetic impact should be taken into account under determining the principles, mechanisms and tools for implementing the state policy of energy efficiency increasing. The principles of government regulation for enhancing energy efficiency was extended by the principles of: dissemination and diffusion; consistency and synchronicity; convergence. These principles should be considered under development of government instrument enhancing energy efficiency (mechanism for assessing, forecasting and monitoring the energy efficiency, its convergent and divergent components, determining the asynchrony of Ukraine's state policy with the European on enhancing energy efficiency). The approaches for energy efficiency estimation proposed to classify depending on the core criteria that explain the energy sector development conditions. It allowed identifying: dynamic-comparative, statistical-interval, and integral-additive approaches. The methodological tools for identifying the asynchrony and speed of response of Ukrainian energy policy to exogenous and endogenous changes in the national economy was developed. It was based on the σ- and β-convergences considering the trend component of energy, environmental and economic parameters. It allowed justifying the divergent and convergent factors of energy efficiency, taking into account the level of economic development, openness, and globalization process. Under the estimation of the energy efficiency index, the fluctuation of stimulators/disincentives of energy efficiency, the dynamics of the energy sector development, convergent and divergent determinants should be considered. The findings showed that in 2008 the integrated energy efficiency index was 0.628 points (corresponds to the average level), and in 2016 – 0.594 points (the lowest level). It was provoked by military and political instability in the country, the transformation of the world model development from export-raw materials to resource-innovation, and changing the structure of the energy balance to increase the share of green energy. The balance between the convergent and divergent sub-indices of energy efficiency allowed ensuring the energy efficiency index growth. It was empirically substantiated that the government's priority actions should increase the divergent parameters of the energy efficiency index. The results of the forecasting of the level of divergent parameters of the energy efficiency index until 2030 (using the Braun model) confirmed that under the optimistic scenario, its growth to the level of the convergent component in 2020 takes more than ten years. The findings proved the among the governance efficiency indicators, the following indicators had the most impact on the divergent parameters of energy efficiency for Ukraine: the rule of law, the government's ability to implement policies and regulatory measures openly, and control corruption. The findings of the mutual influence of statistically significant indicators (the rule of law, government's ability to openly implement policies and regulatory measures, corruption control), green investment and innovation in the energy sector on the divergent parameters of energy efficiency for EU and Ukrainian panel data during 2000–2020 showed that effective state regulation in the EU countries led to increasing in energy efficiency by an average of 15 % and increasing of 1 % in green investment and innovation in the energy sector by 2 % and 4 %, respectively. The inefficiency of the green investment market in Ukraine restrict the multiplier effect of the diffusion of green innovations and investments in the energy sector.

Abstract:
“The Protection of the European Strategic Sectors”. The kind of protection that is at the heart of this doctoral thesis is the defence of the strategic companies established in the European Union (EU) from takeovers by foreign investors, that is to say investors from countries which are not part of the European Economic Area. This work aims, on the one hand, at outlining the main features of a screening mechanism of foreign investments at the EU level and, on the other, at identifying the proper legal basis in the EU Treaties for its establishment. Chapter 1 contains a non-exhaustive list of the European strategic sectors which consist in all the economic sectors in which the EU or its Member States have adopted rules to limit foreign investors’ right to acquire participations in strategic companies for reasons of public security. Indeed, the Court of Justice of the EU (CJEU) used the expression “strategic sectors” in relation to undertakings whose activities are deeply linked to the protection of public security. The EU notion of public security contains both internal and external security, but also the production of goods and the supply of services which are essential for the very existence of a country. Chapter 2 provides a comparative study of the present situation of strategic enterprises’ protection in three EU Member States (Germany, Italy and France). It shows that a fragmented landscape of foreign investment control rules adopted by national authorities represents both a constraint to an efficient internal market of capital movements, and a limit to an effective protection of the European strategic sectors. By contrast, an EU foreign investment control mechanism could lead to a less fragmented system of strategic companies’ protection, which would be able to encourage foreign investments. At the same time, a single EU body of foreign investment control should be more efficient in order to protect EU public security. Moreover, unlike Member States measures such as “golden shares”, this mechanism could enjoy a greater degree of compatibility with the fundamental freedoms of the Treaties. In effect, the CJEU recognises a “presumption of conformity” with the freedoms of movement to the EU secondary legislation which pursues objectives of general interest like the protection of public security. Chapter 3 analyses the most significant experience of foreign investment control at the global level, the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States, in order to understand if it could be a suitable model for the establishment of a similar body in the EU, the Committee on Foreign Investment in the EU (CFIEU). Once outlined the key aspects of the CFIEU, chapter 3 focuses on the search of the most proper legal basis in the EU Treaties for its establishment. The study tries to demonstrate that Article 207(2) TFEU on unilateral measures of Common Commercial Policy (CCP) could be the right legal basis for the creation of the CFIEU. Indeed, after the Lisbon Treaty, the CCP has become an exclusive competence of the EU which also encompasses the admission and the treatment of foreign direct investments. In conclusion, chapter 3 tries to figure out the implications of the establishment of the CFIEU both on Member States competences (especially their exclusive competence on national security by virtue of Article 4 TEU), and on the international obligations undertaken by the EU towards third countries, with particular reference to the World Trade Organisation rules and international investment law.

Abstract:
碩士<br>國立中央大學<br>機械工程學系<br>107<br>The energy sectors has played an important role in the dramatic economic development in Vietnam, and become a critical factor sustaining the well-being of the Vietnamese people. This study aims to investigate the role of the five kinds of energy sector (coal and coke, crude oil, natural gas, petroleum product, electricity) in the national economy of Vietnam by using input-output analysis. Data from the period 2007-2012 was used to analyze the inter-industrial effects in 58 sectors, focusing on three topics: the impact of energy supply investment on individual sectors and the inter-industry linkage effect; the energy supply shortage effect; and the impact of the rise in energy rates on prices of other products. The results reveal that: most of energy sectors have forward linkage effect values greater than one, this could imply that the energy sectors are sensitive changes by economic fluctuations and it is a vital input to national existence. The backward linkage effects of the energy sectors have significant difference. In particular, “petroleum products” and “coal and coke” have a relatively strong capacity for pulling other industries, meanwhile “crude oil”, “natural gas” and “electricity” have a relatively weak capacity for pulling in other industries. Among the five kinds of energy sectors, the petroleum product sector with a highest forward linkage effect has more strength to support the other industries, and that with highest backward linkage effect has a relatively strong capacity for pulling in other industries. Taking the energy industry as exogenous, this study further explores its economic effects on other sectors, including production-inducing, supply-shortage, and price effects. Moreover, potential uses of the results are illustrated from the perspective of policy instruments and some policy implications are discussed.

Abstract:
The continuously increasing energy intensity internationally is recognised as one of the greatest dangers the human race is facing nowadays with regards to future climate change and its detrimental consequences. Improving the intensity of energy consumption is an important step towards decreasing greenhouse gas emissions originating from fossil fuel-based electricity generation and consumption. As a result of this, South Africa took the bold step in 2010 to commit itself to the Secretariat of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) in taking all the necessary actions to decrease the country’s greenhouse gas emissions by 34% to below the “business-as-usual” scenario by 2020 (Republic of South Africa, 2010). In order to do so, the country has to substantially reduce its energy consumption. This should be done without affecting the economic output; however, major energy consumers might prefer to decrease their output in order to comply with the rules focusing on the reduction of energy use. In South Africa, harmful environmental effects are created mainly from the electricity consumption’s unprecedented rise. The bulk of the country’s greenhouse gas emissions (more than 60%) originate from the electricity generation sector which is heavily dependent on coal-fired power stations. The purpose of this study is to promote a benchmark-and-trade system to improve electricity efficiency in South Africa with the ultimate objective to improve the country’s greenhouse gas emissions. The uniqueness of this study is two-fold. On the one side, South African policy-makers have rarely discussed or proposed the implementation of a cap-and- trade system. On the other side, the same mechanism has never been proposed regarding electricity efficiency. In order to do so, it is first required to acquire an in-depth knowledge of the electricity consumption and efficiency of the South African economy in its entirety and on a sectoral level. The key findings of the empirical analysis are as follows: A decreasing effect of electricity prices to electricity consumption existed during the period 1980 to 2005, contrary to the increasing effect of total output to electricity consumption. Also, the results indicated that the higher the prices, the higher the price sensitivity of consumers to changes in prices (price elasticity) and vice versa. The relationship between electricity consumption and electricity prices differ among various sectors. The findings of the exercise point towards ambiguous results and even lack of behavioural response towards price changes in all but the industrial sector, where electricity consumption increased with price decreases. On the other side, economic output affected the electricity consumption of two sectors (industrial and commercial) presenting high and statistically significant coefficients. Based on a decomposition exercise, the change in production was the main factor that increased electricity consumption, while efficiency improvement was a driver in the decrease of electricity consumption. In the sectoral analysis, increases in production were part of the rising electricity usage for all the sectors with ‘iron and steel’, ‘transport’ and ‘non-ferrous metals’ being the main contributors to the effect. On the decreasing side of consumption, only five out of fourteen sectors were influenced by efficiency improvements. The country’s electricity intensity more than doubled from 1990 to 2007 and the country’s weighted growth of intensity was higher than the majority of the OECD countries by a considerable margin. Also, nine of the thirteen South African sectors were substantially more intensive than their OECD counterparts. Although the picture presented is rather dismal, there is scope for improvement. This study proposes a sectoral benchmark-and-trade system. This system aspires to steadily improve the participants’ efficiency performance by awarding the successful participants with monetary incentives through trading with the less successful ones. The benchmark is chosen to be subject to the average of OECD members for each sector. Depending on the sectors’ performance compared with the standard chosen, they will be awarded credits or allowances to sell if they do better than the benchmark. If they are worse-off, they will have to buy credits in the market created. The price per credit will be determined by the interaction of demand and supply in the market. The findings of a comparison with a carbon tax system show that the proposed system benefits the majority of the sectors and gives them better incentives to change their behaviour and production methods to more efficient ones. The system also fulfils the desired characteristics of a benchmark-and-trade system: certainty of environmental performance; business certainty; flexibility; administrative ease and transparency.<br>Thesis (PhD)--University of Pretoria, 2011.<br>Economics<br>unrestricted

AbstractThis chapter presents the present energy, economic and political landscape of the MENA region, country by country. While fossil fuels have been at the center of this landscape in the MENA region, each MENA country has gone through a transformation of its energy system. Understanding this historical evolution is instrumental to better understand the starting point for future national energy transformations. While fossil fuels play a key role in all national energy sectors, countries vary regarding energy endowment, population size and economics. The chapter highlights the clear regional cleavage between hydrocarbon-exporting and hydrocarbon-importing countries and its consequences on national energy sector evolutions.

Abstract:
AbstractThe buildings sector in the EU consumes 40% of energy and is responsible for 36% of CO2 emissions. With growing public interest on the subject, there have been several EU policies developed to curb impacts. Statistical analysis conducted in the case study indicates an increase in both total and buildings’ energy consumption trends leading up to 2030, with total energy consumption having an expected value of 40% increase and building energy consumption having an expected value of 33% increase. Analysis results indicate that building energy consumption could be maintained at current levels if a proactive approach is embraced. Focusing solely on buildings’ energy consumption does not solve national or regional energy problems, but neglecting them altogether prevents significant gains to be made. Building energy efficiency is not the solution by itself to achieve energy goals in EU, but is an important contributor toward the solution.

AbstractTrusted data spaces supporting energy services and fostering collaboration between all stakeholders are a cornerstone of the decarbonization of the sector. Today, a broad representation of European energy companies and academic and technological partners has joined GAIA-X to build the European energy data space. The group represents all segments of the energy value chain and is from all around Europe.Through this data space, we aim to address the following challenges: accelerate the deployment of low carbon energy solutions, foster energy efficiency and sector coupling (power, gas, and heating, integration of mobility and building/heating systems, etc.), enable more flexibility and renewable energy integration to the European electric system, accelerate the sector digitalization, and ultimately support Europe competitiveness, thanks to low energy costs.To achieve these goals, strong collaboration between the actors is needed to identify and launch valuable use cases on key topics: renewables, hydrogen, nuclear, energy efficiency, electric vehicles, local energy communities, networks, or compliance and traceability.The article is a collaborative effort, initiated in February 2021, from the French, German, and Belgium energy communities within GAIA-X national hubs. The intention is to provide insight on the work of the GAIA-X energy Domain, to share widely our ecosystem’s expectations, and to provide an overview of use cases identified.

AbstractThe chapter provides an analysis of the different strategies envisaged by each MENA country regarding the low-carbon energy transformation, mainly in the field of renewable energy sources. By examining the different national strategies, the chapter outlines how they depend on different level of commitments, ambitions and preferences regarding renewable energy sources and project size. Given their high potential, all MENA countries are considering solar projects, and to some extent wind projects (for example in Morocco and Egypt). The transformation of the global energy system and the internal challenges in MENA countries are the driving engines in the energy sector of these countries, though at varying speed depending also on their hydrocarbon endowment (or lack thereof).

AbstractCapacities of the construction sector are an important vector for a transition towards improving energy efficiency and the broader use of renewable energy in buildings. This affects not only the conventional renovation activity, but also the design and maintenance of buildings with advanced digital features to control their energy behavior. The present study aims to assess the data available on this topic in Spain at the national and regional scales (taking the regions of Aragon and the Basque Country as case studies) in order to be able to develop indicators to assess the building renovation policies effectiveness. The results show that Spain possesses ample data to assess the professional capacity of its sector, and the rough estimates shows existing skills are aligned with requirements, although it is crucial to ensure that university studies adapt to evolving sector needs. Yet emphasis on gathering data on smart technology adoption, engagement with energy communities, and administrative capacity is needed.

Abstract:
AbstractThe paper uses the case study of Limpopo province to discuss technology innovations in green transport in South Africa with respect to the reduction of global greenhouse emission through technology innovation. South Africa’s emission from fuel combustion is the world’s 15th largest in forms of CO emission because it contributes about 1.2% of global emissions. In a submission from the Department of Environmental Affairs (DEA) on the impact of greenhouse emissions stated that companies are required to be innovative to reduce the carbon emission levels in South Africa. Literature on road transport in South Africa shows that road transport is the fastest growing source of greenhouse gas emissions, accounting for 19% of global energy consumption. The policy to promote an integrated public transport in municipalities is in line with the National Development Plan and the White Paper on National Climate Change Response. This requires innovative technology that promotes carbon trading markets such as taxi recapitalisation programmes and carbon tax on new vehicles. The study analysed the factors influencing green technology innovations in South Africa with specific reference to Limpopo province green transportation study. The methodology used to unpack innovative technology in South Africa discusses green technology in Limpopo province in the context of greenhouse gases emission reduction innovative technologies in the transport sector with respect to sustainable fuels, energy efficient systems and smart information as well as hybrid technologies. The study advances arguments on technologies for engine and propulsion systems, alternative energy sources, navigation technologies, cargo handling systems, heating and cooling vehicles, road and rail vehicles and maritime transportation with respect to innovations as well as battery charging systems, engine oil disposal etc. The findings shows that no single trajectory of technology innovation in green transport will suffice but technological innovations that improve fuel economy and transition from fossil fuels to cleaner fuel alternatives. The study in Limpopo province showed that green transport innovations must not obscure the role of non-technological innovations in reducing emissions, but the two should be tackled with green transport value chain as a whole.

Abstract:
In the context of the pandemic crisis beginning in 2020, the European Union (EU) established the NextGenerationEU (NGEU) recovery package to shape the future of Europe recovering from the economic and public health collapse as well as fostering the ongoing efforts to mitigate and adapt to climate change. As part of these efforts, the Recovery and Resilience Facility (RRF) is the key instrument to help the EU and its Member States emerge more robust and resilient from the crisis, face the challenges, and reap the opportunities brought by the green and digital transitions. To access the funding each Member State was asked to develop a National Recovery and Resilience Plan outlining the intended reforms and public investment projects. This paper presents the policy recommendations suggested to support investments in the energy sector as well an overview of the energy-related objectives of the Romanian National Energy and Climate Plan and a few of possible measures for implementing the reforms and the investments in the field of energy as they are formulated in the National Recovery and Resilience Plan of Romania.

Abstract:
Renewable energy communities (REC) are one of the instruments to increase uptake of renewable energy (RE) sources. The EU policy underlines the necessity of citizen wide involvement in the energy system transformation processes to meet the renewable energy (RE) targets. In the article, the energy community is understood as mostly locally-rooted form of co-operation in order to jointly use RE sources with the aim of producing RE dominantly for collective self-consumption and providing socio economic benefits for REC participants and particular local areas. The article estimates the potential of the households regarding rooftop solar photovoltaic (PV) uptake in Latvia. Evaluation is based on the cascade approach: starting with the technical solar PV potential, housing type analysis, then estimating the financial capacity of households and household investments statistics, finally the household willingness to invest in joint energy production is considered. As a result, REC potential to attract additional household investments to increase solar PV electricity production is calculated in the range from 43.69 MEUR to 87.42 MEUR. The REC potential to scale up RE in power generation is calculated for 76.6 GWh electricity in 2030, or 11.6% of the additional electricity from solar PV installations planned in the national energy-climate plan scenario. REC facilitating is understood as one of the policy wheels of municipal sustainable energy and climate action plans. By applying the regional model for climate change mitigation measure impact evaluation, the potential contribution of REC in greenhouse gas emission reduction and providing socio economic benefits for both REC participants and municipality are evaluated at the city level.

Abstract Energy security is a critical component of a nation's sustainable development, and for an oil and gas-rich country like Nigeria, it is particularly pivotal. This study explores the multifaceted dimensions of energy security in the context of Nigeria, delving into the challenges, opportunities, and policy considerations that shape the sustainable development of its oil and gas sector. Nigeria is one of the largest oil and gas producing country in West Africa Sub region. The country has been striving to attain national energy security. The methodological framework of the study involves the use of literature review, policy documents and case. The study finding reveals that for a country like Nigeria which is a mono based economy?. Without energy mix, it is very challenging to achieve energy security despite being endowed with fossil fuels. However, Nigeria has the potential to increase its energy security in future by diversifying its energy resources, decarbonizing the oil and gas industry by utilizing its enormous gas resources and integrating with other African countries especially in the energy market. The study also recommends keying into renewable energy especially in this era of energy transition and adopting energy efficiency principle.

Full text
Abstract:
In the last decade, the service sector had a very rapid growth, due to the so-called “tertiarisation” of the economy. Accordingly, the energy consumption, mainly attributable to public and private buildings, is rapidly growing, thus making buildings energy saving one of the main issues of the energy policy at regional, national and international levels. To this aim, we developed an effective methodology to improve energy efficiency of the service sector buildings. This may represent a handy great opportunity to save natural and economic resources, especially where the buildings structure and the technical systems are old, the maintenance activities are not carefully carried out or a systematic energy management is not applied. Nevertheless, actions in this direction are often considered too expensive and complicated, if compared with residential energy optimization, because of the big extension, the variety of activities and the high number of occupants typical of the service sector buildings. The developed approach for energy audits aims to investigate the energy aspects of existing non-domestic buildings in a structured way, in order to clearly identify their energy saving potential and to improve their energy performances. The main goal of the study is defining a general methodology to analyze the current energy use and consumption considering a limited number of their peculiar elements such as dimensions, activities, users behavior, technical systems data and energy bills. Furthermore, these informations are completed by an appropriate energy measuring campaign. All the possible energy uses in service buildings are taken into account (i.e. lighting, ventilation, air conditioning, hot water production). The results obtained from the analysis allow to evaluate a global level of building energy efficiency, and to identify those single areas, specific systems or everyday activities where energy is wasted. These considerations also provide basis for programming cost-effective energy saving action plans. The effectiveness of the proposed methodology is demonstrated through a case study for an Administrative Center building in Rome, Italy. Results demonstrate the methodology reliability and the cost reduction potentialities.

Abstract:
Abstract In 2015 and 2016, the Ministry of Energy and Energy Industries (MEEI) undertook a National Facilities Audit (NFA) to augment the periodic audit exercises of the Ministry. This Audit was the first of its kind conducted in Trinidad and Tobago and involved upstream, midstream and downstream energy sector companies. Some companies scored highly in the Audit, some were average and others below average. This paper will provide guidance to operators who scored below the average so that they can make the necessary adjustments to improve their Asset Integrity scores to above average and beyond in future. The selected consultant who performed the NFA developed a standardized audit protocol to audit all the companies. The MEEI set up a Steering Committee to oversee the execution and delivery of the audit to ensure it was conducted within the project's objectives. The consultant and MEEI representatives conducted joint audits, which involved document reviews, interviews and site visits. A Systems and Equipment Audit was conducted followed by a site visit. The project lasted 9 months, a total of 30 audits were conducted during the period, and a report prepared and presented to the MEEI by the consulta nts with the findings and recommendations. Scores were assigned to various categories in both the System and Equipment Audits, which contributed to a System score and Equipment score. From these two scores, an overall score was determined. The audit found that Asset Integrity Management (AIM) systems showed a wide variation across the industry, international companies were typically more advanced with AIM than domestic companies, the state-owned companies had the lowest scores and Joint Venture companies generally had the highest scores. Generally, many companies did poorly in the audit due to lack of proper documented internal procedures with respect to Asset Integrity. Companies that did well had well-documented procedures for process safety management. The paper will show the benefit of conducting a nationwide Asset Integrity Audit that can inspire other countries to consider doing likewise and thus encourage improved Asset Integrity Management in the global energy sector. The paper will go into the details of the audit so that in future companies would be more prepared for a similar type of audit, and who show significant improvements with their scores.

Abstract:
There is an innate and critical relationship between energy and weather, water, and climate. As the deployment of renewable energy, particularly wind and solar energy, increases, so too does dependence on weather and weather variability. Understanding, accounting for, and communicating weather and climate variables is therefore critical for the planning and optimization of the energy system. This puts increasing pressure on the scientific community, and particularly those working on the weather and climate aspects of renewables, to provide the right information to meet the key decision-making needs of the energy sector. This study is the second of two pilot projects on the provision of actionable information for decision-making through the tailored and targeted assessment of weather and climate science. This study confirmed that excellent progress is being made on a variety of fronts associated with renewable energy, which is critically important as we move to increase use of renewables. A consistent theme in the discussions under this study, however, is the need to bring together many disparate types of data, modeling, and analyses toward convergent tools that adequately address the complex interconnectedness of a national power system built on renewable sources. In many ways, the most significant finding of this study is the need for major convergence research efforts to build the necessary historical reanalysis datasets, integrated weather-energy forecast models, and policy and regulatory frameworks that can leverage current disciplinary research efforts.

Abstract:
1. This report shows that six G20 countries (Japan, South Africa, Argentina, France, Ireland, and Mexico) and one ASEAN Member States (Singapore) have implemented a carbon tax. 2. The energy sector is the primary GHG emissions contributor in most member states, except Indonesia. However, the energy sector in Indonesia will highly contribute to the national GHG emissions considering the rise of energy demand due to economic and population growth. 3. The effectiveness of carbon tax is specific to which sectors are taxed and which sectors are exempt to a country member. Specifically, a higher emissions price may not cover a large share of emissions in the country. The high carbon tax in France only covers 35% of total emissions in its jurisdiction. Meanwhile, Japan and Singapore’s low carbon tax covers 75% and 80% of total emissions in their jurisdiction, respectively. 4. The numbers of sectoral coverage by emissions price will impact the level of revenues generated from the carbon tax. France obtained the most significant carbon tax revenue for more than USD 9.6 billion. Meanwhile, Argentina generated less than USD 1 million, likely due to tax exemptions in natural gas commodities. 5. The contribution level of carbon tax revenue to the government’s total revenue varies for each country. France and Ireland’s carbon tax revenue contributes 0.71% and 0.53% of their total government revenue, respectively. Meanwhile, the rest of the countries’ carbon tax revenue contributed less than 0.3% each to their government revenue.

Abstract:
This discussion paper presents a survey of the changes in Latin America's energy consumption over the last 30 years, before considering the trends that will affect the region in the coming decades. It highlights several important issues, including the growing demand for oil, which has prompted a resurgence of resource nationalism and the revitalization of national oil companies in the region. Regional oil policy has also been boosted by the growth of China, which is now a major player in the Latin American energy sector, as both consumer and financier. Natural gas consumption has also grown in recent years, and the discovery of large non-conventional gas reserves will also alter the energy landscape. Overall, the paper concludes that Latin America has adequate resources to meet its rising energy needs. The challenge for national governments, however, is to find a balance of sources that best provides energy security, meets growing demand, is environmentally sustainable, and can be developed at a competitive cost. For the region with the cleanest energy matrix in the world, the paper recommends that national governments focus on developing renewable resources in order to avoid a greater reliance on fossil fuels.

Abstract:
The Global Green Growth Forum (3GF) was initiated in 2011 with the aim of supporting a global transition to inclusive green growth through global alliance making and the promotion of public-private partnerships. This forum is a unique platform to catalyze partnerships that can rapidly bring to scale green growth opportunities bringing together governments from developed, developing and emerging economies along with the private sector. Realizing the potentials of green growth requires the effective mobilization at scale of financial, technological and human capital. This will only be possible if governments and the private sector collaborate at the local, national and the international levels to overcome barriers, and create the right incentives for actors to innovate and invest. This document is oriented towards stimulating the discussions, commitments and partnership building between governments and the private sector at the Forum. The commitments and insights derived from this first regional 3GF meeting will both benefit the LAC region and feed into the global 3GF meeting in Copenhagen on October 21-22, 2013.

Abstract:
Sweden’s Environmental Quality Objectives (EQOs) have been adopted to help describe the environment the country wishes to achieve, and are a promise to future generations of clean air, a healthy living environment, and rich opportunities to enjoy nature. Here, we assessed selected socio-economic indicators adapted from the Montréal Process for the Conservation and Sustainable Management of Temperate and Boreal Forests (MP) to examine trends in the Swedish forest sector of direct relevance to the EQOs. We did this with the aim of raising awareness about important socio-economic dimensions related to the EQOs, and to explore the linkages between the EQOs and the forest bioeconomy. We focused on the forest sector because of its central importance to meeting the EQOs, and fundamental social and economic roles it plays in Swedish society. The MP was chosen as our guiding framework because it was developed to assess national-level sustainable forest conservation and management, thus, incorporating critical economic, environmental and social dimensions. We applied a mixed methods approach based on a literature review, analyses of national and multilateral databases, and consultation with experts to identify and interpret selected indicators. We identified forest sector socio-economic indicators relevant to the EQOs related to forest property and ownership, economic value and consumption of wood and wood products, employment, wood energy, access to greenery, per capita forest availability, and cultural values. Interpretation of national-level indicators estimated for the 2000-2020 period point to overall progress toward maintaining forest conservation and production areas and a sector that has added substantial economic value through the processing of wood and wood products. Forests are an importance source of renewable energy and increasingly support the location of non-wood energy sources through the placement of wind power mills across forested lands. Downward trends were observed in fewer forest owners, a shrinking workforce, and per capita forest area which might be explained by processes of bequeathing, higher industry efficiencies and continued population growth. Selected indicators related to production forests, wood energy, per capita protected forests and cultural importance suggest these can directly support relevant EQOs including living forests, limited climate impact, rich plant and animal life. Through exports and hiring foreign workers, the Swedish forest sector has kept a direct linkage with the consumption of wood products abroad and in supporting economic wellbeing in lesser-developed nations through wages from forestry and non-wood seasonal employment, respectively. There is limited current information on cultural aspects such as heritage values and reindeer herding. Available data suggest a declining trend in damages to cultural remains within forest felling areas. We recommend regular and periodic assessment of the cultural and conservation values for Swedish forests to strengthen the ability to assess social and ecological sustainability relevant to the EQOs.
