Application of Circular Economy Principles to Power Generation: Extending the Life of A Hydropower Plant by Pumped Hydro Energy Storage

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The application of circular economy, which aims to maximize efficiency and reduce waste, to renewable energy sources necessitates, given the intermittent nature of the latter, robust energy storage solutions to ensure grid stability and avoid wasting energy.

Affordable and Clean Energy: CO2 Emissions, Resilience and Inequality

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sustainable development means building the resilience of both people and the planet. It includes implementing strategies which reduce emissions while also enabling more vulnerable households to transition to clean and affordable energy. This paper examines household CO2 emissions in Ireland to highlight those who emit most and least in key ...

Barriers to Steel Decarbonization

steel research international, EarlyView.
Main identified barriers to steel decarbonization Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions are a leading contributor to global climate change, necessitating urgent mitigation strategies. While various metrics—such as total national emissions, per‐capita output, and historical contributions—define responsibility, determining accountability remains complex ...

A Novel Three‐Way Decision‐Based Approach for Environmental, Social, and Governance Performance Evaluation of Power Industry Under Pythagorean Fuzzy Multi‐Attribute Decision‐Making Environment

Safety Science and Technology, EarlyView.
A novel method for evaluating the ESG performance level of power companies is proposed. The PFS‐FWZIC method is employed to calculate the indicator weights, avoiding the inconsistency issues associated with traditional methods. An ESG performance evaluation index system tailored for the power industry is constructed.
