Strategies to Develop Electrocatalytically Active Perovskite Oxide Nanosheets

AbstractIn the research field of alternative energy, perovskite oxides remain one of the prominent classes of electrocatalysts because of their outstanding compositional and chemical versatility, tuneable catalytically active centers, and structural robustness leading to operational stability. However, their routine high‐temperature synthesis curbs the available active sites, and consequently, there is an ongoing urge to mend the perovskite oxides towards dimensionally reduced forms which can endow maximum surface‐active sites to accelerate the redox processes. Despite the burgeoning interests, research in this field barely began in the last decade. This review highlights some of the relevant literature findings, and rationalizes the limitations, and benefits of developing two‐dimensional (2D) nanostructures of electrocatalytically active perovskite oxides. Furthermore, the roadblocks of the current approaches for wide‐stretched adaptability and standing gaps to counter such bottlenecks are discussed.

Ukraine’s energy supply in the defense sector: The first lessons of war

The terrible consequences of the Russian-Ukrainian war, which continues on the territory of the Ukrainian land, and the consequences of natural disasters indicate the need to create alternative (reserve or emergency) sources of energy supply for enterprises, institutions, and individual households, and objects of small forms of management, especially outside the points of permanent deployment. Ensuring an uninterrupted and stable electricity supply to all these forms is an extremely important problem for Ukraine as the country faced a large number of challenges regarding energy independence due to numerous missile strikes. The purpose of the study was to analyze the energy system and the level of damage to Ukraine after the Russian missile attacks, the impact on the state of energy supply of individual facilities and consumers of military camps, examine the possibilities of using emergency and backup energy sources and alternative energy, in particular, solar and wind. The study analyses the destruction of the energy system of Ukraine as a result of missile attacks and the possibilities of using emergency and backup energy sources and alternative energy, in particular, solar and wind, and the investigation of the potential and opportunities to attract investment in the field of alternative energy. Special attention is paid to small business facilities, including military camps. In the course of the study, it was determined that Ukraine has a geographical location that provides space for the installation of various alternative energy systems and the possibility of combining them to diversify and improve the stability and reliability of the Ukrainian energy system. The practical importance of the study lies in the ability to make more informed decisions regarding the implementation of programs aimed at switching to alternative and decentralized energy sources. This will make the country’s energy infrastructure more stable and allow better meeting the energy needs of small forms of management, individual farms, military units, formations, and infrastructure facilities.

Product-service system and possibilities of its application in the field of alternative energy

The aim of this article is to study and justify the possibilities of using a product-service system in the field of alternative energy, as well as to develop business-models for introducing relevant innovative developments in the field of renewable energy sources to the world market. Thus, CO₂ emissions are reduced, and the demand for green energy is met. There are few studies in the literature linking the product-service system and renewable energy sources. The originality of this work lies in the correlation of these two concepts. The authors conducted a preliminary analysis of the energy market and developed three business models based on the product-service system applicable in the field of renewable energy: On-Grid, Off-Grid and Hybrid systems. The results of the study show that the proposed business-models are ideal in an environment where traditional electricity tariffs are high or there is no power grid, as well as when it is possible to be a prosumer (consumer and producer of electricity at the same time) at the legislative level. The favorable impact of the product-service system application to renewable energy sources on the environment is substantiated. Also, the purchase of renewable energy by consumers will not require an initial investment. These models consider the demographic, legal, and cultural characteristics of countries and communities. Companies operating with renewable energy can apply these business-models regardless of which country they operate in or what type of renewable energy they provide, which shows the importance of applying alternative business-models for the development of renewable energy.

Administrative Methods and Coordination Periods of Ukraine with the European Union in the Field of Alternative Energy

Alternative energy is considered as a search for new energy sources, in particular, non-traditional, providing independence from fuel energy. The reduction of Ukraine’s energy dependence on traditional fuel resources is only possible through the development and use of its own alternative energy, which uses local resources as bioenergy as a fuel or does not require a fuel component at all (solar, wind and small hydropower).It is shown that the EU is one of the leaders in the implementation of alternative energy and renewable energy sources and initiates the creation of many organizations that finance projects related to the use of alternative energy. Among them there isInternational Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA).The aim of the publication is to show the importance of using alternative energy in Ukraine and in theEU, administrative methods and economic mechanisms for regulating natural resources, as well as the stages of cooperation between Ukraine and the European Union.Thus, one of the most important challenges facing the countries today is the search for such energy sources that will reduce the use of traditional energy sources and the dependence of these countries on imports. Currently, the question of energy independence for Ukraine is quite relevant. The country’s potential makes it possible to efficiently use renewable energy sources, primarily solar and wind power, as well as to extract biogas to provide energy. The current Energy Strategy of Ukraine for the period up to 2035 is in general in line with the Ukraine’s accumulative obligations towards the EU on renewable energy sources and aims to increase the share of renewable energy sources to 25% in general by 2035.

The charging performance in contact electrification of fluorinated ethylene propylene surfaces by electrode bridge

Triboelectricity utilizes triboelectric nanogenerators (TENG) that transfer negative charges between two material surfaces that are in contact. Incomplete flow of charges results in charge accumulation on the material surfaces. In this study, we demonstrated that the accumulated charges could enhance induced output by contact electrification using electrode bridge (EB) to improve charge transfer mechanism. Triboelectric nanogenerator electrode bridge (TENG-EB) was fabricated using synergistic combination of polymer-polymer, polymer-metal, and metal-metal contacts during contact-electrification. Fluorinated ethylene propylene (FEP) film was fabricated using hot pressing technique. FEP crystallinity reached 85.8%, maximum temperature for ε r of FEP was 145 °C, and remanent polarization of FEP polymer was 4.2 µC mm – 2 . The individual events of the charge transfer during contact and separating of TENG-EB could be studied with a single electrode measurement. Separation of FEP, EB and electrode surfaces led to induced output of which signal was 4 times higher than TENG with non-EB. This mechanism utilized DC output that enhanced AC output signal for a given tapping frequency across a rectifier circuit. This new route is proposed for further research, development and invention in alternative energy field including energy harvesting and flexible electronic devices. • Charges event is demonstrated using electrode bridge (EB) induced output performance. • Triboelectric nanogenerator electrode bridge (TENG-EB) was fabricated based on synergistic combination of polymer-polymer, polymer-metal, and metal-metal contacts. • FEP-Al hot pressing is fabricated for electron blocking layer (EBL) has also played a vital role in blocking the electron overflow between a negative material and an electrode. • Output signal of TENG-EB is 4 times higher than that of a TENG non-EB.

Global economic crises, oil and gas wars, and the constant struggle for natural resources are forcing humanity to look at the world through the prism of mercantile interests, causing damage to nature. As a result, this leads to climate change, global warming and massive environmental pollution.Analyzing these trends, part of society is increasingly focusing on alternative energy sources. The purpose of the article is to analyze current trends in the use of alternative energy sources in EU countries and to determine the possibilities of their application in Ukraine. The research methods used in the work are the following: analysis, abstract and logical, generalization, comparison, economic and statistical, and graphical. It has been established that the most common alternative energy sources include solar, wind, water, biofuels, and others. Each of them has its advantages and disadvantages. At present, themechanism for encouraging the use of alternative energy sources in the European Union is the "green" tariff, premium "green" tariff, tenders, auctions, grants, soft loans, and tax and customs benefits. The analysis of renewable energy production trends in the EU showed that hydropower prevailed until 2012.In Ukraine, the share of primary energy from renewable sources is much lower than in the EU. The main areas of cooperation between the EU and Ukraine in the field of alternative energy have been identified.Wind and solar energy and biomass can become a full-fledged object of export from Ukraine to the European Union. It is established that in order to stimulate the production of clean energy in Ukraine, it is advisable to introduce loans with low-interest rates and grace periods, quota obligations andencourage the creation of energy cooperatives. The tax levers’ influence on carbon dioxide emissions reduction and the implementation of renewable energy sources usage have been determined.

THE SOCIO-ECONOMIC DETERMINANTS OF GREEN BOND ISSUANCE

Global awareness of the climate change risks draws society’s attention to issues of financing environmentally friendly projects. In this context, green bonds are a new financial instrument used exclusively for financing environmentally friendly projects. A wide range of issuers, from small firms to international corporations, can use green bonds to raise funds for environmentally friendly projects. In recent years, the green bonds market has been developing rapidly in the world. Financing the recovery of Ukraine after the Russian invasion and European integration requires launching this market in Ukraine as well. This will increase the scope of infrastructure projects financing in the field of alternative energy and energy efficiency, reduce greenhouse gas emissions and consumption of fuel and energy resources, and improve Ukraine’s investment attractiveness and competitiveness. The green bond market operates under the influence of numerous factors that have both direct and indirect effects on it. The article examines the relationship between the volume of green bond issuance in the world in 2021, when its jump-like growth took place, and the factors that characterize the environmental, social, governance and macroeconomic spheres of the сountry. The research was conducted on the dataset of socio-economic indicators of 54 countries. Correlation and regression analysis was used to determine the cause-and-effect relationship between variables, as well as the variables that have the greatest impact on the volume of green bond issuance. The obtained results of the study indicate that countries with a higher volume of green bond issuance are primarily characterized by good credit ratings, which increases investor confidence, better economic development and a large population. Understanding the socio-economic determinants of green bond issuance will help market participants make informed decisions. The research results can be applied in the process of forming and implementing the state policy of Ukraine to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals.

ПЕРСПЕКТИВИ ВПРОВАДЖЕННЯ АЛЬТЕРНАТИВНИХ ВИДІВ ЕНЕРГІЇ

The article considers the need to intensify the use of alternative energy sources. Environmental problems and the depletion of fossil resources are the main reason for the transition to an alternative type of energy. The possibilities of alternative energy determine the more active implementation of energy saving and energy efficiency measures. Prospects for the development of the use of alternative energy sources are proved by the gradual increase in their share in the total supply of primary energy in recent years. The study identified the need to create additional favorable economic conditions for the development of enterprises in this industry and the growth of the level of investment in this area. Investments in the modern «green» world are becoming a trend among investors. The «green» tariff for electricity is one of the incentives for the development of alternative energy – the use of power plants allows you to save on electricity and contributes to the development of the green energy industry in Ukraine. The results obtained in the study proved the effectiveness of the use of solar power plants in private households and confirmed the feasibility of developing state support programs for financing alternative energy. In Ukraine, there are a number of financing programs in the field of alternative energy to support Ukrainian companies. For the private sector, there is the State program of warm loans, with which some Ukrainian banks work. To increase the use of solar energy by individuals, more opportunities and guarantees must be provided. Ukraine has a significant potential in the development of alternative energy – at present, the use of such technologies in the country is almost at an early stage. The use of wind and solar energy, as well as biofuels and waste is gradually gaining momentum in Ukraine, but it is necessary to create additional conditions for further development. More active use of alternative energy sources will contribute to the growth of opportunities for the energy industry and requires further study of the mechanisms for the development and implementation of relevant programs and projects.

FEATURES OF ECONOMIC SUPPORT OF ALTERNATIVE ENERGY DEVELOPMENT IN UKRAINE

Summary. Today, the search for new energy sources is more than acute. Reducing Ukraine’s energy dependence on traditional fuel resources is possible only through the development and use of its own alternative energy, which uses local resources as fuel (bioenergy), or does not need a fuel component (solar, wind and small hydropower). The European Union is one of the leaders in the implementation of alternative energy and renewable energy sources and has initiated the creation of many organizations that finance projects related to the use of alternative energy. European energy legislation declares a 20% level of renewable energy in the overall energy balance of the European Union until 2022. By signing the Paris Agreement, Ukraine has made certain commitments, namely: according to the Energy Strategy of Ukraine until 2035, «Security, Energy Efficiency, Competitiveness» is considered to be the goal of achieving 25% of renewable energy sources in gross final energy consumption. This goal can be achieved only in the case of international cooperation with the EU in the field of alternative energy. The purpose of the study is to study and specify the features of economic support for the development of alternative energy in Ukraine. The article uses structural, logical and comparative analysis as research methods. The article examines important theoretical and practical aspects of the development of alternative energy in Ukraine. In particular, the main elements of economic support for the development of alternative energy are identified, the financial resources that are necessary for the implementation of innovation policy of the state are characterized. As a result of the study, it is proposed to adhere to the principles on which the national policy should be based on stimulating the development of alternative energy: elimination of non-economic barriers, such as administrative barriers, lack of access to energy systems, imperfect structure of the electricity market, lack of awareness and training, as well as solving problems with the introduction of renewable energy technologies in society; the need to create an easily predictable and transparent support system to attract investment; implementation of transitional incentives, which are planned to reduce the level of support over time, which will stimulate innovation in technology, control them and help to achieve market competitiveness as soon as possible; development and implementation of appropriate incentive programs that guarantee a certain level of support for different technologies, depending on the degree of their development, which helps to realize significant potential over time; assessment of the impact of large-scale implementation of renewable energy technologies on the energy system as a whole, especially in liberal electricity markets, which would take into account the overall economic efficiency and reliability of the system.
