Environmentally adjusted productivity growth and shadow prices for dairy farms

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Agricultural Economics/Revue canadienne d'agroeconomie, Volume 74, Issue 2, Page 99-123, June 2026.
Abstract We estimate the environmentally adjusted productivity growth and shadow price for Ontario dairy farms. We use an input‐oriented directional distance function and farm‐level data from 2000 to 2020. First, we find that while GHG emissions per cow increase with higher milk yields, emission intensity decreases as milk yield per cow increases.

The Cost of Ownership and Minimum Sustainable Price of POLO BJ Cells Produced in Germany

open access: yesAdvanced Energy and Sustainability Research, Volume 7, Issue 4, April 2026.
The p‐type back junction (BJ) solar cell featuring n+‐type passivating poly‐Si on oxide (POLO) emerges as a promising alternative to the established PERC concept. This study compares the cost of ownership (CoO), minimum sustainable price (MSP), and the levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) of POLO BJ and PERC solar cells, with a focus on the potential ...

Disentangling the Effects of Firm‐Level Climate Risk and Capital Market Signalling: Evidence From Stock Price Informativeness

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, Volume 35, Issue 3, Page 3198-3217, March 2026.
ABSTRACT This study examines the impact of firm‐level climate risk on stock price informativeness (SPI) through the integrated lens of stakeholder–shareholder theory. Using a global unbalanced panel of 73,770 firm‐year observations across 38 countries (2000–2020), we find that higher carbon emissions significantly reduce SPI, reflecting increased ...
