Experience curve analyses for green hydrogen technology development
Given the rapid increase in government support for green hydrogen technology development, it is important to incorporate research development and demonstration (RD&D) spending into the estimation of the learning rate for electrolysis technologies. Thus, we develop a two-factor experience curve model with spillovers and economies of scale that allows us to estimate learning rates for both alkaline and PEM (polymer electrolyte membrane) electrolysi…
Co-deploying biochar and bioenergy with carbon capture and storage improves cost-effectiveness and sustainability of China’s carbon neutrality
Learning increases both acceptability and scrutiny of carbon dioxide removal methods
Carbon dioxide removal (CDR) technologies are increasingly recognized as necessary complements to decarbonization efforts; however, public acceptance remains a critical implementation challenge. This study investigates the impact of educational exposure on perceptions of CDR methods among individuals with a pre-existing interest in climate solutions. We conducted a quasi-experimental study with pre- and post-surveys of participants ( n = 366 pre-…
Sustainable energy experiments and demonstrations
Research into the impact of innovative sustainable energy experiments and demonstrations is crucial to diversifying, scaling up, and accelerating the sustainable energy transition. Although there is vast research into sustainable energy experiments and demonstrations, research literature offers a fragmented collection of findings. A coherent overview of themes and insights regarding the transformative impact of innovative sustainable energy exper…
Responsible carbon dioxide removals and the EU’s 2040 climate target
No abstract. First para: The European Union (EU) has recently initiated the debate on its 2040 climate targets with the EU Commission’s proposal of a net 90% greenhouse gas emission reduction target relative to 1990 (EC 2024a). The EU Commission’s impact assessment indicates that carbon dioxide removals (CDR) will play an important role in the EU’s climate policy for 2040, on a path to EU’s climate neutrality target in 2050 (EC 2024b). The scienc…
Sustainable scale-up of negative emissions technologies and practices
Most climate change mitigation scenarios restricting global warming to 1.5 °C rely heavily on negative emissions technologies and practices (NETPs). Here we updated previous literature reviews and conducted an analysis to identify the most appealing NETPs. We evaluated 36 NETPs configurations considering their technical maturity, economic feasibility, greenhouse gas removal potential, resource use, and environmental impacts. We found multiple tra…
Off seasons, holidays and extreme weather events
The fine-grained electricity consumption data created by advanced metering technologies offers an opportunity to understand residential demand from new angles. Although there exists a large body of research on demand response in short- and long-term forecasting, household consumption behaviour studies based on smart metering data has not been discussed as much as the demand load studies, especially limited research focusing the residential consum…
Climate Policy after the 2015 Paris Climate Conference
The landmark 2015 Paris Agreement, adopted to widespread acclaim at the 21 st Conference of the Parties (COP 21) to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), reflects profound political cleavages and tensions, which were already condensed, even camouflaged, in the wording of the mandate that launched the negotiations, as set out in the 2011 Durban Platform for Enhanced Action 1 .Of particular note are the opaque formulat…
Comparing public attitudes towards energy technologies in Australia and the UK
Protests and Policies
How do radical movements seeking fundamental social change engage with nearer-term policy dilemmas? Disciplinary boundaries and practical obstacles have limited research into protester policy engagement. Using a hybrid method combining participant-observation and expert-led focus groups, we document activist attitudes concerning controversial climate policy options. Data gathered at 'Climate Camps' in six national contexts are presented alongside…
Equity in allocating carbon dioxide removal quotas
A Bayesian LSTM model to evaluate the effects of air pollution control regulations in Beijing, China
Peeling back the label—exploring sustainable palm oil ecolabelling and consumption in the United Kingdom
Palm oil production has been linked to deforestation, biodiversity loss, and climate change. We explore consumer awareness of palm oil, perceptions of its environmental impact, recognition of ecolabels including the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO) ecolabel, and inclusion or avoidance of ecolabels in household shopping using a representative sample of the British population. We find consumer awareness of palm oil to be fairly high (77%),…
Carbon capture and storage (CCS)
Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is vital to climate change mitigation, and has application across the economy, in addition to facilitating atmospheric carbon dioxide removal resulting in emissions offsets and net negative emissions. This contribution reviews the state-of-the-art and identifies key challenges which must be overcome in order to pave the way for its large-scale deployment.
Where can I go to see one? Risk communications for an ‘imaginary technology’
One of the major challenges of risk communications for CCS is the fact that, to date at least, the projects are themselves largely ‘imaginary’ – globally, there are no full-chain power plants opera
Getting Ready for Carbon Capture and Storage by Issuing Capture Options
A capture option is an option contract where the option holder can exercise a contract to retrofit an existing fossil fuel plant to capture carbon dioxide (CO2) on or before a fixed date. We suggest that new thermal power plants, particularly those in developing countries, consider issuing capture options at the design stage, because the sellers-the owners of newly built thermal power plants-may then invest in making these plants CO2 capture read…
The drivers of Chinese CO2 emissions from 1980 to 2030
Énergie et changement climatique
En matière de politique pétrolière et de sécurité énergétique, l'Administration Bush a montré une grande disposition à servir les intérêts industriels et régionaux, tout en s'appuyant sur une rhétorique de crise - crise énergétique et crise de sécurité nationale. Le « plan Bush » sur l'énergie, consistant à relâcher les contraintes sur la production intérieure pour résoudre la crise énergétique, a échoué politiquement. En matière de changement cl…
