ABSTRACT Energy efficiency factors in building codes and standards are crucial components that are prescribed to buildings to augment their energy efficiency. The objective of this study was to prioritize these vital energy efficiency factors. The present study derives its motivation from energy design and execution professionals, who face the challenge of selecting certain energy factors that may result in a trade-off over other factors. A fuzzy set theory with a decision-making trial and evaluation laboratory (DEMATEL) methodology was employed to obtain the results. A ranked list of prioritized energy efficiency factors is one of the key contributions of this research. We demonstrate that energy efficiency factors can be evaluated according to the degree of their importance. Based on the results, it was concluded that outdoor and indoor climatic conditions, air conditioning systems, orientation of buildings, and ventilation are the four most significant and highest-ranked factors that affect the energy efficiency of a building.

ABSTRACT The real estate industry is associated with coal production and CO2 emissions. The nonlinear ARDL (AutoRegressive Distributed Lag) co-integration method was used to analyze the effects of long-term and short-term real estate development and CO2 emissions on coal production. The results showed that: (1) The positive and negative impacts of CO2 emissions on coal production were similar in the long. Moreover, CO2 emissions negatively affected coal production; (2) In the long run, the positive impact of real estate development on coal production is greater than the negative impact, though it is not significant. In the short term, the negative shock of real estate effectively reduced coal production; (3) The impact of coal production on CO2 emissions is symmetric in both the long and short term. Therefore, in the future, real estate should develop moderately. In addition, lessening coal production demand is crucial to ensure coal production reduction and carbon neutrality.

ABSTRACT This study investigates the role of the import diversification in the renewable energy consumption for a global panel of both developing and developed economies. The study applies panel co-integration and panel quantile regression analysis on the panel data of 138 countries during 1995–2018. For empirical analysis, the authors used Pedroni) cointegration test and panel-quantile regressions. The investigation proves that the import diversification significantly reduces the renewable energy consumption and there is a major need for designing and implementing some revised and synchronized policies of trade with the energy mix and sustainable development goals. The empirical findings claim that the foreign direct investments, natural resources and GDP increase significantly boost the renewable energy demand for both groups of developing and developed countries. Therefore, this study shows that generally the current trade policies might be ineffective and import diversification policies should be reformed to match with the energy regulations, manufacturing, and sustainable development goals.

ABSTRACT This study investigates income and price elasticities of residential electricity demand and electricity rebound effect using the annual panel data of 18 European Union countries. Quantile regression results show that income elasticities are higher in lower quantiles, whereas price elasticities are uniform in all quantiles. Three fixed-effect estimators provide consistent results, with the scale of long-run income and price elasticities increasing compared to short-run elasticities. In the short run, the derived elasticities of electricity demand are 0.08 for income and −0.03 for price, whereas in the long run, they are at 1.17 for income and −0.43 for price. In addition, asymmetric price response is observed, estimating the rebound effect in the decomposed price model. Our empirical results suggest that European governments implement policies that accelerate improvements to electricity efficiency and invigorate the retail electricity market, making residential electricity prices more transparent to consumers.

ABSTRACT This study investigates the effects of oil price shocks on five Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN-5) trade balances by employing a time-varying parameter vector autoregression model with stochastic volatility (TVP-VAR). The time-varying responses derived from this model indicate that the impacts of oil price shocks vary significantly across economies due to their distinct characteristics in the oil market. The results also demonstrate the significant time-varying impact of economic activity and the real exchange rate on the trade balances of the five countries. The time-varying responses show that the effects of oil prices on trade balances are more pronounced during global and local economic events. Our findings have important policy implications for each country to avoid the risks associated with fluctuations in oil prices.

ABSTRACT Energy poverty is one of the important facets of sustainable development, but less attention to the linkage of energy poverty to economic vulnerability. This study proposes that two variables would have a mutual linkage, which is tested through a sample of 73 low- and middle-income economies. By applying panel Granger causality and two-step system generalised method of moments estimate to a system equation of two variables, the robust results are as follows. First, mutual causalities between economic vulnerability and energy poverty are evidenced. Second, economic vulnerability appears to have an increased influence on energy poverty; and energy poverty, in return, shows similar effects on economic vulnerability. Third, the nexus is mostly consistent in 46 low- and lower-middle-income economies and 27 upper-middle-income economies. The results indicate the important mutual link between economic vulnerability and energy poverty at a global level, which demands urgent action on appropriate policies to deal with energy poverty

ABSTRACT The management of energy systems with a high share of renewables is a challenge for grid planners and operators, as weather and energy demand do not always coincide. Investigating the energy autonomy of cities and their local energy resources can help to overcome this challenge. To this end, real energy demand data from the city of Loja, Ecuador, and wind energy generation from a nearby wind farm were compared. This showed that wind energy provides 53% of the city’s demand. It is exposed that despite the excess energy, the wind farm’s ability to supply the city with electricity is limited to about 74% when the wind farm is expanded to twice its rated capacity. The results show that in order to improve the autonomy, other energy sources, such as photovoltaic, as well as useful size energy storage are needed.

ABSTRACT Peer-to-peer (P2P) electricity trading is a new data-driven business model currently being trialed within the energy sector. Introducing P2P transactions to an essential service such as energy supply could have far-reaching implications for individuals and the grid. This paper raises considerations and questions from social, market design and regulatory points of view, which should be understood and addressed by societies and policymakers. It does this by considering under what circumstances it is reasonable to conceptualize P2P electricity trading as part of the sharing economy, and drawing parallels to the sharing economy experience in other sectors. In order to reap the full societal benefits, while avoiding considerable risks to infrastructure and individuals, a policy approach promoting dialogue and innovation is necessary. We suggest the regulatory sandbox is the most appropriate tool to achieve this and would help avoid the breakdown of trust between policymakers and platform companies observed in other sectors.

ABSTRACT The economic contributions of economic complexity, characterized by knowledge, sophistication, and diversification, are well documented. However, its decarbonization impacts remain unclear and need more research, especially in complex economies. Therefore, this study tests the economic complexity effects on carbon dioxide (CO2) productivity (output per emissions) and CO2 intensity (emissions per capita) for 22 European Union countries from 1995 to 2018. The study follows a cointegration framework considering heterogeneity and cross-country dependence diagnostics. Augmented mean group estimates confirm that higher economic complexity reduces CO2 productivity and increases CO2 intensity. Additionally, energy efficiency (output per energy supply) improvement is found as a key driver of decarbonization. Higher per capita income intensifies emissions, but non-linear income effects do not reveal an environmental Kuznets curve pattern. Deindustrialization improves decarbonization, while environmental tax revenues have insignificant influences. A bidirectional causality is established between CO2 intensity and economic complexity. Overall evidence suggests policies favoring energy-efficient green complexity.

ABSTRACT Energy poverty is a complex multidimensional phenomenon perceived differently in developed and developing countries. It becomes necessary to identify the energy-poor households as energy poverty affects households in many ways, with negative consequences. This study is established upon an enhanced version of the multidimensional energy poverty index. Still, it differs from the earlier frameworks, as it incorporates two critical dimensions of 10% measurement and minimum energy required for necessities. Devising a multidimensional energy poverty index, this study analyzed the pattern and magnitude of household expenditure on energy and health among energy-poor and non-poor. This study is demonstrated in India using household-level data from the National Sample Survey 68th round. The results reveal that per capita energy and health expenditure; and the share of health expenditure in the total consumption expenditure among energy-poor households is high. Insights from this study can be a valuable input for policymakers to identify energy-poor households and frame relevant and effective policies to alleviate energy poverty.
