Although the core variables of this paper include carbon emissions, ecological footprint, energy transition, and AI, they come from a classic and broad topic, namely the technology-environment nexus.
Achieving net zero carbon emissions is the holy grail of climate change policies, with the transition to renewable energy sources often considered the hero in this quest.
Under the severe situation of global warming, low-carbon development is gaining more and more attention. Due to the different research methods, research samples, and the selection of performance indicators, there is greater disagreement on the relationship between carbon performance and financial performance. The study covers the dataset starting from …
Based on the dynamic panel threshold model, we find that due to the influence of external factors, a nonlinear relationship between the impact of low-carbon energy transition …
To achieve the goal of "carbon peak and carbon neutrality", it is crucial for China to effectively control environmental pollution in low-carbon action (LCA). Based on the evidence from 283 cities in China from 2007 to 2019, the difference-in-differences (DID) method is applied to explore the impact of LCA on pollutant emissions represented by the pilot of low …
The MM-QR estimation results from Table 5 for the central and western regions indicate a consistently significant positive relationship between low-carbon energy transition (LCET) and carbon emissions across various quartiles. The coefficients range from 10.403 to 17.188 for the 10th to 90th quartiles, demonstrating statistical significance at ...
Exploring the low-carbon energy transformation pathway is vital to coordinate economic growth and environmental improvement for achieving China''s carbon peak target. Three energy-target scenarios are developed in this paper, considering the targets of energy structure, electrification rate, and carbon mitigation towards 2030 announced by the Chinese …
ECA nations are vital to global environmental sustainability. Europe emitted 10% of global GHGs and pledged a 40% reduction by 2030 [13].Wind power provided 22% of the EU''s renewable energy in 2020, second only to solar [14].The Central Asia Regional Economic Cooperation (CAREC) initiative seeks to increase the region''s renewable energy (REC) …
Energy comes from the natural environment and ecosystems. It is the basis of human activities, the driving force of socioeconomic development, and necessary for improving human well-being and living conditions [3, 4].The use of energy also has feedback effects on the environment [5].Therefore, energy is linked broadly with the sustainable development of …
Energy companies are in the spotlight regarding the environmental pressure to address the current environmental issues by initiating the sets of social responsibilities.
