“…Scientists indicate that they have difficulty in interpreting the energy security definition [9]. Additionally, researchers claim that "there is little consensus" [10] over the energy security phenomenon, "there is no common interpretation" [11] and "exact definition is hard to give as it has different meanings to different people at different moments of time" [12]. In this sense energy security seems to be a concept that lacks common scientific understanding and therefore is subjected to further discussion.…”

Energy Security of Poland and Coal Supply: Price Analysis

Energy security is one of the most intensely debated topics. Majority of papers treat the issue from the hydrocarbon market perspective, but this research focuses on the coal market broken into two specific market segments: heating and electricity production. Using the case of Poland as an example, we conduct a cointegration analysis between the coal and natural gas markets. The study uses monthly data from 2011 until the beginning of 2019. Our results show that the Polish electricity sector is more connected to the international coal market than it is to the natural gas market, while the heating sector, despite using insignificant quantities of imported coal, is more connected to the natural gas market. Hence, energy security—in its price dimension—in those two market segments differs. This situation has important policy implications. First, energy policy should take this difference into account, and second, such variation implies that different market tools should be used in those market segments.

“…Studies have highlighted the dynamic nature of governance, where the actors and their agendas have shaped the developments in urban water governance in the case of Bangladesh 15 . At the energy front, Holley and Lecavalier 7 have argued for the development of governance arrangements along with the availability of updated data for pathways for sustainability in case of Hong Kong access to open data is one movement, which has tremendously facilitated the governance pursuits.…”

With the wave of digitalisation, institutions across countries are pushing for the creation of open data and their governance. FAIR Data Principles have initiated the publishing of open research data to the key stakeholders and practitioners in the low- and middle-income countries to meet their developmental goals through practical usage in problem-solving. Open Data, which is part of the Open Science movement, has transformed the regime structure at a transnational level for the governance of critical issues surrounding water and energy. This paper provides a baseline survey to look into the various open data initiatives in the areas of water and clean energy across countries in general and India in particular. Given the multifaceted challenges around the water-energy nexus existing in India, it is critical to identifying the open data initiatives and studying their governance at the country level. Since governance requires the participation of various institutions and multiple stakeholders, the research aims at highlighting the various initiatives such as participation of institutions and the application of Creative Commons (CC) licensing terms in the open data governance for clean energy and water sectors in India.

“…Research on the efficiency of regional innovation governance has attracted growing attention in recent decades [10]. Researchers have attached importance to the social, technical, economic, political, and environmental issues of sustainability [11][12][13][14]. Rapid development, particularly in cities, has brought growing energy consumption and pollution emissions to China [15], which is not sustainable [16,17].…”

As China is undergoing economic transformation and facing increasing energy and environmental problems, it is essential to pay special attention to sustainable innovation governance. This research took industrial waste and total energy consumption into consideration and uses a super efficiency slack-based measure (SBM) model to empirically evaluate the regional innovation efficiency of Chinese provinces. The results showed that the efficiency of China’s regional sustainable innovation has not changed significantly over recent years. In addition, the results also showed large and varying degrees of innovation efficiency across different provinces. Eastern China, in comparison to central and western China, showed higher innovation efficiency. In addition, we found a slightly increasing trend in terms of innovation efficiency disparities between the three areas. On the basis of these findings, the reasons for the innovation efficiency gap between different regions were analyzed. The impacts of influential factors on sustainable innovation efficiency were further explored. We found that technology market maturity affected sustainable innovation efficiency positively, while government funding had a negative impact on sustainable innovation efficiency. Industrial structure and environmental regulations had no significant effect on sustainable innovation efficiency. Finally, some implications for improving governance performance in terms of sustainable innovation were provided.
