Evolution of price policy for offshore wind energy in China: Trilemma of capacity, price and subsidy

Youzhou Wei et al.

Summary: China is promoting the development of its offshore wind industry to address environmental issues and economic development. The industry has evolved through different stages of pricing policies but faces the challenge of balancing capacity, price, and subsidies. To sustain its growth, China needs to implement a market-oriented competition price policy and learn from the experiences of European countries.

How much impact will low oil price and carbon trading mechanism have on the value of carbon capture utilization and storage (CCUS) project? Analysis based on real option method

Boqiang Lin et al.

Summary: Under climate change policy restrictions, carbon capture utilization and storage (CCUS) provides a feasible way for developing countries to meet energy demand and reduce carbon dioxide emissions. The uncertainty of CCUS-EOR development is influenced by economic factors such as low oil prices, but carbon trading mechanisms can enhance the value and potential investment success of CCUS projects. Higher carbon and oil prices are needed to accelerate optimal investment in CCUS projects, highlighting the importance of establishing and improving carbon trading mechanisms for promoting CCUS-EOR investment.

Offshore wind farm site selection using interval rough numbers based Best-Worst Method and MARCOS

Muhammet Deveci et al.

Summary: The development of offshore wind farms has become increasingly important over the past 20 years due to higher average wind speeds at sea. A new hybrid approach integrating Interval Rough Numbers into Best-Worst Method and Measurement of Alternatives and Ranking according to Compromise Solution was introduced in this study for intelligent decision support in choosing the best offshore wind farm site. The results demonstrated the feasibility of the proposed approach and identified Bozcaada as the most suitable site.

Offshore wind turbine operations and maintenance: A state-of-the-art review

Zhengru Ren et al.

Summary: Operations and maintenance of offshore wind turbines (OWTs) are essential for the development of offshore wind farms. Maintenance, in particular, plays a crucial role in the overall cost of energy due to practical constraints and high costs associated with offshore operations. The impact of maintenance on the life cycle of offshore wind farms is complex and uncertain, with maintenance strategies significantly affecting efficiency, profitability, safety, and sustainability. Onsite maintenance involves intricate marine operations that rely on practical factors for efficiency and safety, while potential negative environmental impacts also need to be considered.

Economic policy uncertainty nexus with corporate risk-taking: The role of state ownership and corruption expenditure

Weike Zhang et al.

Summary: This study examines the relationship between economic policy uncertainty (EPU), corporate risk-taking, state ownership, and corruption expenditure in China. The results show a significant positive correlation between EPU and corporate risk-taking, with state-owned enterprises (SOEs) being more risk-averse in response to EPU, while non-SOEs are more likely to use corruption expenditure. The effectiveness of China's anti-corruption campaign also influences these effects.

Opening the box of subsidies: which is more effective for innovation?

Shiyuan Liu et al.

Summary: This study suggests that government R&D subsidies have a positive impact on innovation performance in enterprises, with ex-ante grants being more effective than ex-post rewards. However, the effectiveness of these subsidies is diminished in enterprises involved in rent-seeking and political connections.
