Energy Poverty and Climate Shocks: Are Changing Weather Patterns Leaving South Africa in the Dark?

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Energy and climate change are deeply interlinked, with the latter exerting significant influence on energy demand and supply. In regions such as South Africa, where socio‐economic vulnerability is high, understanding how climate change affects energy poverty is essential to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals, particularly SDG 7 ...

Eco‐Initiatives and Commitment to the Equator Principles

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Equator Principles (EP) score is a performance code for financial institutions (FIs) based on their commitment to managing environmental issues in project financing. This study examines the impact of environmental initiatives on the adoption of the EP by 204 US financial firms (including banks, insurance companies, investment banks, asset ...

Effects of Development Finance on Energy Transitions and Green Growth in Sub‐Saharan Africa

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While global agendas promote energy transition and green growth, Africa south of the Sahara (SSA) struggles with low energy access, highlighting a development paradox between climate goals and energy poverty. By aligning aid and development finance with SDGs 7 and 13, we analyze whether development finance is at a crossroads in supporting ...

Reduction‐Controlled Tunable Synthesis of Covellite (CuS) Nanoparticles from Water‐Soluble Single‐Source Precursors

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Amino acid‐derived Cu(II)‐dithiocarbamates were synthesized as water‐soluble single‐source precursors for low‐temperature hydrothermal decomposition toward covellite (CuS) nanoparticles. Their decomposition followed a reduction‐mediated pathway via Cu(I)‐dithiocarbamate intermediates, with the reduction step being rate‐limiting and readily tunable ...

Suppress Ru Over‐Oxidation Through Oxygen Vacancy Engineering – Showcase With Ni‐Modified RuO2 via Molten‐Salt Synthesis

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Competitive OER catalyst for H2O splitting without using Ir is a luxury wish; Ru is an active element to do the job but often does not hold long. See how those scientists managed the task with Ni modified RuO2 suppressing Ru over‐oxidation through Oxygen Vacancy Engineering.
