“…Composite indicators are widely applied in research. Synthetic indicators were used by Blancas et al (2023) to measure tourism sustainability, Drago and Gatto (2022) used them to measure institutional transparency in the energy policy sector, Jin et al (2021) applied such indicators to assess globalisation with regard to global environmental changes. Also, some innovative approaches in composite indicator application are found, such as the separation of the benchmark selection issue from effi ciency measurement (Fusco, 2022) and the use of unsupervised machine learning techniques (Jiménez-Fernández et al, 2022).…”

The paper aims at measuring the efficiency of the digital economy in EU countries. For that purpose, data envelopment analysis (DEA) is used. Sub-dimensions of the Digital Economy and Society Index (DESI) are used as inputs and the Sustainable Development Goals Index (SDGI) as an output. The results revealed that Bulgaria, Italy and Romania are the most efficient digital economies in terms of human capital; Belgium,

“…However, unfortunately, inadequate investment in renewable energy generates more significant carbon emissions since fossil fuels are extensively utilized in the power sector [31]. Decarbonization policy is essential to support the development of renewable energy and sustainable management of natural resources in a country [32]. The decarbonization policy through renewable energy investment can enhance energy security by reducing our reliance on expensive fossil fuel imports and creating a wide range of new opportunities in the form of new markets for low-emissions products and support services.…”

The energy demand has grown alongside increasing population growth globally. Unfortunately, the utilization of fossil fuels, especially coal, has dominated the energy sectors, including power generation. Fossil fuels have no place in the sustainability future due to the limitation of these resources and the potential environmental impacts that may arise. Therefore, the decarbonization of the electricity sector has recently become the world’s attention, including in Indonesia. This study discusses opportunities and challenges of decarbonization initiatives in the electricity sector by conducting traditional reviews of various publications from direct science databases and publications from official websites of other organizations relevant to the research context. The results discuss decarbonization options by replacing coal with renewable energy. Other initiatives are also investigated in this paper to provide alternative possibilities. The study indicated that each option has challenges that can affect the success of each program.

“…Aldieri et al [25] detect that energy efficiency improvement from renewable energy innovation can contribute to resilience in developing and transition economies. Drago and Gatto [26] claim that energy efficiency plays a critical role in the resilience of a country via its energy policy making. Energy efficiency emphasizes lower energy consumption, which decreases energy dependency and hence strengthens energy resilience.…”

Many countries seek economic growth by means of more energy use from energy imports. Because such imports entail risk as they are controlled by energy exporters, this research establishes a model for energy resilience estimation in order to understand energy risk. The samples in this study are 27 member countries of the European Union (EU), and we divide them into 8 Baltic Sea region (BSR) countries and 19 non-Baltic Sea region (NBSR) countries. The findings are as follows. (i) During the data period, BSR and NBSR exhibit the phenomenon of energy vulnerability. (ii) BSR presents stronger energy resilience than NBSR. (iii) Denmark and Sweden in BSR and Ireland and Luxembourg in NBSR have the best energy resilience. (iv) Strong energy resilience needs high marginal product of energy, high output efficiency, and low energy dependency growth rate for support.
