Management of Energy Enterprises in Zero-Emission Conditions: Bamboo as an Innovative Biomass for the Production of Green Energy by Power Plants

Piotr F. Borowski

Summary: Managing energy-producing companies and the energy sector requires a new vision, mission, and strategy based on legal and environmental requirements. Companies need to produce energy with minimal environmental impact, reduce carbon intensity, increase the use of bioenergy, and adopt innovative solutions to achieve emission reduction goals. The paper proposes utilizing eco-innovations and eco-efficiency, emphasizing the importance of incorporating renewable energy sources like bamboo biomass in power plants to promote ecological development.

The EU needs to improve its external energy security

Matus Misik

Summary: The spike in energy prices and feared natural gas supplies shortage in the winter of 2021/2022 indicate the limited effectiveness of existing energy measures in ensuring energy security for the European Union. The absence of a unified external energy security policy has made it challenging for the EU to adopt a common energy position in response to Russia's invasion of Ukraine in February 2022. While decarbonization efforts need to be accelerated to achieve the EU's 2050 goals, the Union must also prioritize supporting member states' energy security, including their external dimension, during the transition period.

Water and Hydropower-Challenges for the Economy and Enterprises in Times of Climate Change in Africa and Europe

Piotr F. Borowski

Summary: Hydropower has a positive impact on economic development and climate change mitigation, but also has disadvantages related to environmental impact. This article discusses the problems and challenges faced by water energy companies in Africa and Europe, particularly in Poland. The article emphasizes the insufficient generation capacity and energy poverty in African countries, as well as the low production capacity in Poland due to geographical location and climatic phenomena.

Does oil connect differently with prominent assets during war? Analysis of intra-day data during the Russia-Ukraine saga

Oluwasegun B. Adekoya et al.

Summary: The ongoing Russia-Ukraine war has led to stronger connectedness between oil and other financial assets, with oil becoming a net transmitter of spillovers during the war. However, this spillover effect is temporary and diminishes over time.

Pandemic, War, and Global Energy Transitions

Behnam Zakeri et al.

Summary: The COVID-19 pandemic and Russia's war on Ukraine have had a negative impact on the global energy industry, causing fluctuations in energy demand, disruptions in energy supply chains, and hindering energy investments. However, these crises also presented opportunities for low-carbon energy transitions, which may have been missed due to short-term policy focus on supporting the fossil fuel industry.

Changes in Vegetation Period Length in Slovakia under the Conditions of Climate Change for 1931-2110

Vladimir Kiss et al.

Summary: This study investigated vegetation period changes in 24 stations in Slovakia and predicted the length of vegetation periods for future periods. The analysis showed an earlier start of the vegetation period in spring and a later ending in autumn during the last 30 years. The future scenarios suggested an extension of the vegetation period, but limitations such as lack of arable land in the north and lack of precipitation in the south of Slovakia may affect crop cultivation.

European energy politics after Ukraine: The road ahead

Jan Osicka et al.

Summary: By invading Ukraine and weaponizing its gas supplies to Europe, Russia has made natural gas unstable and costly. The implications of this war for European energy politics will lead to a focus on reducing energy vulnerability and accelerating decarbonization, possibly at the expense of further development of the EU integrated energy market.

A wider-aperture lens for global strategic management: The multinational enterprise in a bifurcated global economy

David J. Teece

Summary: The growth of China and President Xi's policies have had a significant impact on the global economy, but global strategy and international business scholars have yet to fully incorporate these changes into their research. The current global business environment differs greatly from existing models, requiring a wider perspective for analysis. Collaboration with other disciplines is necessary to develop more useful frameworks, theories, and models.

Emergent vulnerability to climate-driven disturbances in European forests

Giovanni Forzieri et al.

Summary: This study quantifies European forest vulnerability to fires, windthrows, and insect outbreaks from 1979 to 2018 using machine learning, disturbance data, and satellite products. Results show that about 33.4 billion tonnes of forest biomass could be seriously affected, with higher relative losses in windthrows and fires compared to insect outbreaks. The spatial pattern of vulnerability is influenced by forest characteristics and background climate, with hotspot regions identified at the borders of the climate envelope in southern and northern Europe.

Principles of Sustainable Management of Energy Companies: The Case of Poland

Elzbieta Jedrych et al.

Summary: The article discusses a Polish law introduced in 2016 that required energy companies owned by the state and municipality to set management goals, linking board members' remuneration to goal implementation. It presents a process for balancing capital within energy companies and proposes an alternative to using profit as the sole measure of success. The study found a slow transition from financial goals to investment goals in over 150 energy companies, and suggests a new approach to formulating management goals linked to capital efficiency and sustainable management.

Extreme weather events in europe and their health consequences - A systematic review

Veronika Weilnhammer et al.

Summary: Most studies in Europe have shown that extreme heat and cold events, droughts, wildfires, and floods have negative impacts on human health, including overall mortality, cardiovascular and respiratory mortality, cardiovascular disease, respiratory disease, and mental health. However, due to the heterogeneity in study designs, quality, exposure, and outcome assessment, the associations between these extreme weather events and health impacts are not conclusive. Additional high-quality studies are needed to confirm these results and further explore the effects of other extreme weather events in Europe.
