Benefit Mechanism and Enhancement Strategy of High‐Proportion Building Photovoltaic Systems Under Carbon Reduction Constraints

open access: yesIET Smart Energy Systems, EarlyView.
A benefit evaluation framework for high‐proportion building photovoltaic systems was established considering carbon reduction constraints and grid absorption costs. The study reveals the intrinsic contradiction between system‐level benefits and PV utilisation benefits, and proposes a dual‐driven optimisation pathway of effective generation and ...

The reckoning: ethnographic explorations of the ending of a friendship Règlement de comptes : explorations ethnographiques de la fin d'une amitié

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
This article examines the ending of a friendship in ethnographic fieldwork. I argue that friendship is a necessarily ambiguous concept and relation, made most distinctive as a ‘friendship’ at its end. Reflecting on a friendship that was ended between this author and an old friend in fieldwork in Halleigh, North Manchester, England, I discuss the ...

Collateral labor: Male partner reentry and women's economic lives

open access: yesCriminology, EarlyView.
Abstract Reentry scholarship frequently assumes that a partner's return stabilizes households and eases the burdens women absorbed during incarceration, yet the economic consequences of reentry for female partners remain empirically understudied. We conceptualize reentry as an economic reconfiguration that may operate as reprieve, disruption, or both ...
