Heterogeneous impacts of urban network centrality on economic growth
Electricity grid and societal vulnerability interconnection
The electricity grid is a pivotal element in the energy transition, serving as the backbone for integrating and distributing renewable energy. However, amid rapid digitalisation and decentralisation of energy systems, its limitations have become increasingly apparent, posing significant challenges for inclusive and equitable stakeholder engagement in the transition. Stakeholders including consumers, prosumers, energy communities, aggregators and …
Geographies of anti-political establishment parties in the Netherlands
The Dutch provincial elections of 2023 saw an electoral victory of the new challenger party BBB (Farmer-Citizens Movement). This fits in an on-going trend of electoral successes by anti-establishment parties, including victories for the PVV (Party for Freedom) and Forum for Democracy (FVD). This article investigates the geographical electoral patterns of protest voting and underlying discontent. It compares the electoral geographies of Dutch prot…
What is the role of energy communities in tackling energy poverty? Measures, barriers and potential in the Netherlands
Energy poverty has become a growing concern. Energy communities have been highlighted to be key enablers to facilitate a just energy transition. However, energy poverty and energy communities have mostly been treated in relative isolation from each other. This study sets to unravel the specificities of energy communities' energy poverty alleviation approaches and barriers faced. The Netherlands is selected as a case due to a doubling of energy co…
Risk or opportunity? The Belt and Road Initiative and the role of debt in the China-Central Asia-West Asia Economic Corridor
This Research Note provides an empirical contribution to the discussion on the debt implications vis-à-vis the unfolding of the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI). For this purpose, we analyze the impact of external debt and other relevant factors on the economies of the China-Central Asia-West Asia Economic Corridor using panel data over the period 1996–2018. The reasons we focus on this geographic area are threefold: first, these countries form a k…
Large changes in Great Britain’s vegetation and agricultural land-use predicted under unmitigated climate change
The impact of climate change on vegetation including agricultural production has been the focus of many studies. Climate change is expected to have heterogeneous effects across locations globally, and the diversity of land uses characterising Great Britain (GB) presents a unique opportunity to test methods for assessing climate change effects and impacts. GB is a relatively cool and damp country, hence, the warmer and generally drier growing seas…
Technology Diffusion and Climate Policy
Accelerating diffusion of climate-friendly technologies
A regional unemployment model simultaneously accounting for serial dynamics, spatial dependence and common factors
Regional labour force participation across the European Union
Regional labour force participation across the European Union: a time–space recursive modelling approach with endogenous regressors. Spatial Economic Analysis. Although there is an abundant regional labour market literature taking a spatial perspective, only a few studies have explored extending the analysis of labour force participation with spatial effects. This paper revisits this important issue, proposing a time–space recursive modelling app…
The SLX Model
We provide a comprehensive overview of the strengths and weaknesses of different spatial econometric model specifications in terms of spillover effects. Based on this overview, we advocate taking the SLX model as point of departure in case a well‐founded theory indicating which model is most appropriate is lacking. In contrast to other spatial econometric models, the SLX model also allows for the spatial weights matrix W to be parameterized and t…
