6 FAQs about Energy storage determines low-carbon transformation

What is the research landscape for the low-carbon transition of energy systems?

The research landscape for the low-carbon transition of energy systems According to our analysis of the existing literature, research on the low-carbon transition of energy systems has been increasing rapidly in the last decade, with China, the United Kingdom, and the United States playing leading roles in this field.

What drives the low-carbon transition of energy systems?

The mechanisms driving the low-carbon transition of energy systems comprise a cutting-edge field in the literature. The related ESI highly cited papers discuss various political, economic, social, and natural factors, along with their synthetical mechanisms (Fig. 8).

Are thermal energy storage systems the key to advancing net-zero energy transitions?

You have full access to this open access article Thermal Energy Storage (TES) systems are pivotal in advancing net-zero energy transitions, particularly in the energy sector, which is a major contributor to climate change due to carbon emissions.

Is there a middle-range review on the low-carbon transition of energy systems?

Although all these studies provide valuable insights into either the low-carbon transition or energy system analysis, there is still a lack of a middle-range review on the literature addressing issues associated with the low-carbon transition of energy systems from an engineering management perspective.

What challenges do energy systems face during a low-carbon transition?

However, the low-carbon transition of energy systems has also encountered challenges, such as economic development and social governance. Industries relying on fossil fuels are heavily hit by emissions constraints, , while oil- and coal-depending countries may face national economic crises .

Should energy systems transition to a low-carbon and cleaner future?

There is now a global consensus that energy systems must transition toward a low-carbon and cleaner future. The low-carbon transition of energy systems is becoming an increasingly important policy agenda in most countries.
