Increasing electric vehicles usage, as a promising solution for environmental issues, might have unexpected implications, since it entails some changes in different sectors and scales in energy system. In this respect, this research aims at investigating the long-term impacts of electric vehicles deployment on Iran's energy system. Accordingly, Iran's energy system was analyzed by LEAP model in...

This article analyses long-term innovation policies and development trajectories of four renewable energy technologies: wind energy, biomass, fuel cells and hydrogen, and photovoltaics. These trajectories and policies are characterised by many costly failures, setbacks, hypedisappointment cycles, tensions, and struggles. Although setbacks and non-linearities are a normal part of innovation jour...

in the recent years, renewable energy sources are an important component of world energy consumption. gdp is one of the main measures of a country’s economic activity. most of the studies examine the impact of renewable energy consumption on gdp with single equation model and the others use dynamic panel data. since the granger causality analysis’s findings of this paper establish bidirectional...
