Temperature and Farm Labor in Nigeria
Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We estimate the impact of temperature shocks on the composition of farm labor in rural Nigeria using a nationally representative household panel survey. Leveraging plausibly exogenous year‐to‐year variation in growing season temperatures, we find that warmer temperatures significantly alter farm labor composition, prompting a substantial shift

Markets Mitigate Land‐Use Competition From Energy Crops and Increase Farm Revenues
Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Meeting the US Sustainable Aviation Fuel Grand Challenge target of 35 billion gal annually by 2050 will require an estimated 380 million–700 million dry tons of agricultural biomass feedstock. This study evaluates the implications of large‐scale biomass production for land use, crop production, and market outcomes under mature market ...

Economic Viability of Photovoltaic Systems Providing Frequency Containment Reserve
Advanced Energy and Sustainability Research, EarlyView.This article investigates the feasibility of photovoltaic (PV) systems providing frequency containment reserve (FCR) in the Netherlands. The economic analysis demonstrates that a PV plant can profitably participate in FCR without battery storage by maintaining an active power reserve.

Advanced Energy and Sustainability Research, EarlyView.This study proposes a method to increase the value of solar power in balancing markets by managing prediction errors. The approach models prediction uncertainties and quantifies reserve requirements based on a probabilistic model. This enables the more reliable participation of photovoltaic plants in balancing markets across multiple sites, especially ...

Copper Contact for Perovskite Solar Cells: Properties, Interfaces, and Scalable Integration
Advanced Energy and Sustainability Research, EarlyView.Copper electrodes, as low‐cost, scalable contacts for perovskite solar cells, offer several advantages over precious metals such as Au and Ag, including performance, cost, deposition methods, and interfacial engineering. Copper (Cu) electrodes are increasingly considered practical, sustainable alternatives to noble‐metal contacts in perovskite solar ...
