CO2 emissions policy thresholds for renewable energy consumption on economic growth in OPEC member countries

Idris Abdullahi Abdulqadir

Summary: This study uses dynamic panel methods to examine the relationships between economic growth, trade openness, renewable energy consumption, and environmental degradation among OPEC members. The findings suggest a long-term relationship between economic growth and environmental degradation, and identify actionable thresholds for CO2 emissions and complementary thresholds for trade policies.

Maximizing flare gas power generation for the design of an optimal energy mix

Kelvin K. Orisaremi et al.

Summary: A major goal of the SE4ALL Initiative is to improve energy efficiency through an energy mix. This study proposes a methodology for estimating the required power from flare gas using directional distance DEA model. The results show that an optimal energy mix for Venezuela includes 40% gas-based power and 60% renewable energy, which can meet the nation's energy shortage more than three times over.

Access to global wheat reserves determines country-level vulnerability to conflict-induced Ukrainian wheat supply disruption

Leonardo Bertassello et al.

Summary: Global wheat trade data for 2022 reveals disparities in how countries responded to Ukrainian wheat shortages, with some countries experiencing significant import losses. The decrease in Ukrainian wheat exports led to over 70% import losses in vulnerable countries such as Egypt, Oman, Saudi Arabia, Libya, Mauritania, Yemen, and Lebanon. The differential impacts highlight the importance of access to capital and international trade, emphasizing the need for policy measures to prevent a food crisis.

Assessing the impact of oil and gas trading, foreign direct investment inflows, and economic growth on carbon emission for OPEC member countries

Dragana Ostic et al.

Summary: This study assesses the impact of oil and gas trading, foreign direct investment inflows, and economic growth on carbon emissions for OPEC member countries. The findings show that there is not a significant relationship between oil and gas export and carbon emissions, while foreign direct investment inflows have a negative relationship and economic growth has a positive relationship with carbon emissions.

DEA and Machine Learning for Performance Prediction

Zhishuo Zhang et al.

Summary: In this study, an integrated model of data envelopment analysis (DEA) and machine learning is proposed for performance prediction, with China's carbon-emission performance as an example. The study discusses two schemes to improve the prediction effectiveness of the integrated model in terms of training set partitioning and feature selection, and demonstrates their effectiveness. The study has application value and complements the existing literature.

Determinants of economic growth: Panel data analysis of OPEC

Katerina Pekarcikova et al.

Summary: The article explores the determinants of economic growth in OPEC member countries and reveals that daily oil production, oil exports, and oil prices have a positive impact on GDP, while unemployment and exchange rates have a negative impact. No correlation is found between inflation, population growth, oil demand, and GDP.

Multidimensional Poverty among Nigerian Households: Sustainable Development Implications

Ismaila Rimi Abubakar

Summary: Nigeria has the highest number of people living on less than USD1.90 a day, and electricity access is the most significant predictor of poverty in the country. Improving electricity supply, education, water resources, sanitation, and healthcare is crucial for reducing multidimensional poverty.

A sustainable lean production framework based on inverse DEA for mitigating gas flaring

Kelvin K. Orisaremi et al.

Summary: This study proposes a novel application of the inverse data envelopment analysis (DEA) model for implementing lean production practices in the petroleum industry. By incorporating lean practices, oil-producing nations can increase oil production without increasing their current levels of flared gas. Reductions in gas flaring were computed for selected nations and converted into gross power outputs. The concept of lean potential growth was integrated into an improved model to rank efficient oil producers.

Resource reallocation for improving sustainable supply chain performance: An inverse data envelopment analysis

Zohreh Moghaddas et al.

Summary: In recent years, globalization has emphasized the importance of sustainable supply chains in the development of organizations and production systems. Efficient supply chains not only increase profits but also ensure responsiveness and sustainability. Different versions of data envelopment analysis models have been used to evaluate supply chain performance. The inverse data envelopment analysis model is employed to analyze parameter sensitivity and assess the risk of changes in inputs and outputs.

A sustainable lean production framework based on inverse DEA for mitigating gas flaring

Kelvin K. Orisaremi et al.

Summary: The gas flaring process is a significant contributor to climate change and restricts access to affordable energy sources for oil-producing nations. Implementing lean production practices in the petroleum industry can help increase oil production without increasing flared gas, as shown in a novel application of the inverse DEA model. By incorporating lean practices, efficient producers can achieve production targets while reducing gas flaring, ultimately improving operational sustainability in the industry.
