Energy, Environment, and Resources | Renewable Energies

The steady increase in global primary energy demand in the past has led to a substantial rise in greenhouse gas emissions, which contribute significantly to climate change. To mitigate the latter, the energy demand must be met more sustainably, which requires an unprecedented expansion of renewable energies. In this context, the question arises whether
