The transition of oil-producing developing countries to low-carbon energy industry is an important issue in the era of climate change. However, their transition is difficult due to economic and technological issues. This study applied data envelopment analysis and topic modeling to help establish effective low-carbon energy transition strategies to ensure sustainable technological development. First, the technological innovation efficiency for transition of 22 oil-producing developing countries was compared using data envelopment analysis, where research and development investment ratio, amount of natural gas reserves, and oil production were used as input variables, and the number of low-carbon energy-related Patent Cooperation Treaty applications from 2015 to 2019, categorized into five technological fields, were considered as output variables. The countries were clustered based on the DEA peer weights. Then, the technical areas to be benchmarked by the followers per group were identified using topic modeling and technological strategies were suggested to improve the efficiency of transition. Our research suggests that patent trends in frontier countries show a strong relationship with relevant policies and standards, leading to the introduction of technologies that support these standards. The findings of this study can contribute to establishing national low-carbon energy policies in oil-producing developing countries.

“…Among the European countries, Austria has become a reference country due to its sustainable building approach, which was formed by following the EU standards, measures, and sanctions regarding the energy efficiency and liveability for the next 30 years [24-27]. In Austria, the "Energy performance of buildings directive (EPBD)" was approved in 2002 and was implemented in 2003 [28,29]. The aim of this directive is to increase the energy performance of buildings in countries within the European Union using costeffective measures.…”

“…The period between 2005 and 2009 marked the beginning of the implementation of the EU energy and climate targets in Austria with a focus on sustainability, where many positive measures were implemented to achieve the intended energy policy goals [27,30]. Austria set itS2020 targets in line with the EU's Climate and Energy Policy 20/20/20 [28] targets of 2008, and the strategic measures were collaboratively developed in cooperation with the states and experts in April, 2009. In this strategy, 20 % more energy efficiency, 34 % higher renewable energy shares, and 39 % less greenhouse gas emissions compared to 2005 are targeted [31].…”

This study aims to investigate the energy-saving potential in the housing sector and encourage the employment of energy-efficient applications in Turkey by adapting the current European building techniques, policies and building standards in the Turkish system. First, the building standards applied in Austria and Turkey were comparatively discussed. Secondly, an energy performance analysis was performed using a PHPP Tool (Passive House Planning Package) and Konya climate data to study a typical detached house in Konya. Several optimisation scenarios that apply the Austrian regulations were conducted to form a base case Scenario. As a result, the energy and greenhouse gas emission reduction potentials, which can be provided using Vienna’s building code considering the structural practices and energy techniques, were revealed. The findings shed light on how the building standards and structural practices can contribute to economic and ecological balance. Consequently, the study emphasises revising the Turkish building standards and improving the current policies to ensure high-quality and sustainable housing designs.
