“…Estimates suggest a negative impact of PUN on both NREC and REC in the majority of the economies. PUN has been recognized as a source of reduced EC, common with other empirical work, like Bompard et al (2020), Olabi et al (2022), Dong et al (2021), andYasmeen et al (2022), that show that PUN reduces NREC and REC. Our findings of a negative PUN-NREC-REC interrelation are comparable with those of Kufel et al (2022) for the EU nations, Adebayo et al (2022) for the United Kingdom, and Akrofi and Antwi (2020) for African countries, all of which assert that PUN reduces EC.…”

“…It was discovered that greater volatility in power use puts an additional burden on the system operator. Yasmeen et al (2022) assessed the influence of COVID-19 on REC and NREC in the United States, which had been significantly impacted by the pandemic outbreak. The study's findings highlighted that, as compared to RE, NREC was more impacted by the COVID-19 shutdown, and overall, EC remained low.…”

Uncertainties have grown around the world during the last few decades. Pandemic uncertainty has a substantial impact on economic activities, which may have a big influence on energy consumption. The goal of this investigation is to appraise the asymmetric influence of pandemic uncertainty on nonrenewable and renewable energy consumption in the top 10 energy consumer economies of the European Union (Germany, Poland, Spain, Netherlands, France, Italy, Belgium, Sweden, Czech Republic, and Finland). Previously, panel data approaches were utilized to obtain reliable outcomes on the pandemic‐energy consumption nexus, regardless of the fact that various nations did not autonomously exhibit similar relationship. This investigation, on the other hand, implements a special technique “Quantile‐on‐Quantile” that supports us to appraise time‐series interdependence in each economy by providing international yet nation‐specific perceptions of the connection among the variables. Estimates show that pandemic uncertainty reduces both nonrenewable and renewable energy consumption in most selected nations at stated quantiles of the data distribution. Nonrenewable energy consumption is much more influenced by pandemic uncertainty than renewable energy consumption. Furthermore, the rank of asymmetries across our variables differentiates by the economy, emphasizing the need for decisionmakers to pay much attention to pandemics‐related uncertainty and the energy sector.

“…They nd that the COVID-19 outbreaks and con nement measures have delayed renewable energy projects due to the nancial problem and disruption of global supply chain. Yasmeen et al (2022) explore the impact of COVID-19 on renewable and non-renewable energy consumption in the USA suing a quantile-on-quantile approach. They nd that non-renewable energy consumption was more affected by the COVID-19 lockdown compared to renewable energy.…”

“…This study aims to ll this literature gap by investigating the effects of pandemic-induced public policies on electricity production and consumption, and the electricity production from s renewable energy sources. Unlike previous studies (Lazo et al 2022;Yasmeen et al 2022), this study speci cally examines different types of public policies responses of COVID-19 in terms of stringent lockdown policies, economic support polices and containment and health policies on electricity production by renewable and nonrenewable sources, electricity consumption and net import of electricity.…”

Starting from 2020, governments around the world have continued to implement many types of public polices in response to the COVID-19 outbreaks. The dramatic public policies have substantially changed production and consumption activities, thereby temporarily lowing electricity use and greenhouse gas emissions. This study argues that the pandemic-induced public policies unintendedly slow down the transformation of renewable energy use in the EU, since the decline of greenhouse gas emissions led by the lockdowns helps the countries reduce the total emission temporarily. We employ a fixed-effect model to investigate the effects of different types of COVID-19 public policy responses on electricity production, consumption, and net import in 12 OECD countries in the EU, and mainly focus on the electricity production share from renewable energy source. Among several public policy responses, the stringent lockdown policies such as workplace closing, stay at home requirements, and restrictions on gathering size have negative and statistically significant impacts on electricity generation and consumption. Further, the countries with stringent lockdown policies are more likely to import electricity from other countries to mitigate the electricity shortage in their domestic markets. Importantly, we find the lockdown events have negative and statistically significant effects on the share of renewable energy use for the electricity production, while increase the share of fossil fuel use for the electricity production. In opposite, economic support policies such as income support, debt relief and economic stimulus programs can help reduce the share of fossil use for the electricity production and decrease the net import of electricity from other countries. Our results indicate that the public polices in response to the COVID-19 outbreaks have mixed effects on the transition to renewable energy power in the EU, suggesting that the current decline of greenhouse gas emissions comes from the reduction of electricity use led by the lockdown events instead of the adoption of renewable energy use and discourage the transformation of renewable energy source.

“…Since the first case of COVID-19 was found in December 2019, COVID-19 has ravaged the world for nearly three years, and has had a huge impact on the economy and life of people around the world. The cumulative number of infections has exceeded 600 million, and the number of deaths is close to 6.6 million [1][2]. With the development of a new generation of information technology, China's new infrastructure construction has gradually developed into a new variable to promote China's economic and social transformation and development, playing a huge role in epidemic prevention and control [3].…”

In order to facilitate the real-time analysis of COVID-19, a COVID-19 data analysis and visualization system is designed and implemented, which acuqries data from Baidu epidemic platform. It displays the epidemic dynamics, new trends, cumulative diagnosis, diagnosis distribution and other information through a big visualization screen. This system adopts the front-end and back-end separation technology, uses Scrapy to acquire epidemic data, and stores the data in the MySQL database through cleaning, conversion and other steps. The back-end obtains data based on Spring Boot, and the front-end uses Vue technology to analyze the back-end data and display the epidemic data in ECharts diversified charts. The practice under the production environment proves that the system can meet the requirements of real-time display and has high scalability.
