Influence of renewable energy trends on fossil fuel refining operations

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, Volume 20, Issue 1, Page 201-218, January/February 2026.
Abstract This study examines how renewable energy indicators such as biofuel prices, biofuel integration, electrification, and carbon allowance prices relate to refined fuel production in Portugal’s refining sector. This is set against the backdrop of the sector’s decarbonization efforts and the economic pressures to meet European Union climate targets.

The Role of Patents in Circular Innovation: The Case of Sustainable and Recyclable Materials in the Textile Industry

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, Volume 35, Issue 1, Page 967-1002, January 2026.
ABSTRACT This article examines whether and how patenting advances circular innovation and therefore contributes to the sociotechnical transition toward a circular economy. Using the multilevel perspective (MLP) as a theoretical framework, we conducted a case study set in the empirical context of man‐made cellulosic fibers. These heavily patented fibers

Uneven Distribution of Natural Energy Resources Impacts on Systemwide Energy Return on Investment

open access: yesEarth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Regional disparities in natural energy resources may impede the acceleration of energy transitions in regional power systems, as the shift to net‐zero power systems requires significant energy inputs. Net energy, defined as the surplus remaining after accounting for energy inputs, serves as a key metric of system performance.
