Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Climate change is currently one of the main social issues being faced by all countries in the world. The United Nations have set a goal to reduce greenhouse gas emissions to net 0 by 2050. One of the methods that will facilitate the achievement of this target is the use of renewable energy resources; a growing number of research studies have been devoted to investigating this issue. As well as paying attention to specific energy resources, society should also focus on additional efforts that aid in optimizing the use of energy resources; in other words, the ways in which energy resources can be used in an efficient manner should be a major focus of academic researchers, as well as government regulatory authorities.
Besides climate change, another issue in the energy sector is the fact that the prices of different energy resources, such as gas, coal, and electricity, have recently risen to their highest levels in decades, together with the fact that the majority of the countries in the world are still suffering from the negative impact of coronavirus, and economies are still attempting to navigate a way out of the recession. The higher prices of energy resources will pose a threat to the economy, in terms of recovery and growth.
This Special Issue aims to deal with both of these important issues in the energy industry by focusing on, but not limited to, the following topics of interest:
▪ Innovative modelling on energy production;
▪ Energy price and energy demand;
▪ The nature of shocks in energy prices;
▪ Policy investigation to deal with climate change and energy price volatility;
▪ The relationship between energy price shocks and GDP;
▪ The relationship between energy price shock and consumers’ expenditure patterns;
▪ The relationship between energy price shocks and inflation;
▪ The relationship between energy price shock and stock prices.
