  • Towards 100% renewable energy in African megacities

  • Area demand quantification for energy system-integrated negative emissions based on carbon dioxide removal portfolios

    Open AccessDominik Keiner, Andreas Mühlbauer et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2025

    Climate change mitigation will most likely rely on large-scale carbon dioxide removal (CDR). Often, only a few technology options are used, principally bioenergy, carbon capture and sequestration, as well as afforestation and reforestation. If climate change mitigation is based on energy crops, the impact of CDR on area demand may be significant. The CDR-specific area demand is usually not presented. This study compares a CDR technology portfolio…

  • Navigating the obstacles of carbon-negative technologies

  • Rebalancing Regional and Remote Australia

    Open AccessAlberto Troccoli, Roger Stone et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2024

    This paper introduces a visionary strategy, Rebalancing Regional and Remote Australia . It aims at transforming Australia into a significant global carbon sink by sequestering 4 gigatonne (Gt) of CO 2 equivalent annually, leveraging about 25% of the nation’s land area. Addressing the unique challenges of Australia’s arid climate, the plan employs innovative, proven solutions in energy, water, and agriculture, including agrivoltaics, to enhance su…

  • Afforesting arid land with renewable electricity and desalination to mitigate climate change

    Open AccessUpeksha Caldera, Christian BreyerARTICLENature Sustainability2023Cited by: 1References: 2

    Afforestation is one of the most practised carbon dioxide removal methods but is constrained by the availability of suitable land and sufficient water resources. In this research, existing concepts of low-cost renewable electricity (RE) and seawater desalination are built upon to identify the global CO 2 sequestration potential if RE-powered desalination plants were used to irrigate forests on arid land over the period 2030–2100. Results indicate…

  • Job creation during the global energy transition towards 100% renewable power system by 2050

  • The role of energy prosumers in the transition of the Finnish energy system towards 100 % renewable energy by 2050

    Open AccessMichael Child, Dmitrii Bogdanov et al.ARTICLEFutures2020Cited by: 3References: 34

    A cost-optimised transition pathway towards 100 % renewable energy was simulated for Finland. This transition was consistent with EU and international targets to achieve sstainability, while maintaining national competitiveness. Finland was divided into 7 regions that account for resource distribution and demand differences at high spatial and hourly time resolutions. Results indicate that levelised cost of electricity can decrease from 61 €/MWh …

  • The concerns of the young protesters are justified

    Open AccessGregor Hagedorn, Thomas Loew et al.ARTICLEGAIA - Ecological Perspectives…2019

    In March 2019, German-speaking scientists and scholars calling themselves Scientists for Future , published a statement in support of the youth protesters in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland (Fridays for Future, Klimastreik/Climate Strike) , verifying the scientific evidence that the youth protestors refer to. In this article, they provide the full text of the statement, including the list of supporting facts (in both English and German) as well…
