Under many scenarios, fossil fuels are projected to remain the dominant energy source until
at least 2050. However, harder-to-reach fossil fuels require more energy to extract and …

A novel methodology is developed to dynamically assess the energy and material
investments required over time to achieve the transition from fossil fuels to renewable …

Energy recovery is a viable option for waste management to integrate prevention, reuse and
recycling when those strategies are not feasible. As such, efficient management of energy …

This paper aims to review one of the least used, but no less important, approaches in the

Whether renewable energy sources (RES) will provide sufficient energy surplus to entirely
power complex modern societies is under discussion. We contribute to this debate by …

The share of wind energy in the US energy supply has been steadily increasing in the last
two decades. With new wind energy farms being installed in various states of the country …

A number of papers in the field of net energy analysis have argued that declines in energy
return on investment (EROI) could lead to increasing energy prices and a fall in economic …

The net energy implications of the energy transition have so far been analysed at best at the
final energy stage. Here we argue that expanding the analysis to the useful stage is crucial …
