Abstract: The paper presents a comparative economic and environmental assessment of high-temperature steam turbine technologies (subcritical, supercritical, ultra-supercritical, and advanced ultra-supercritical cycles) within the energy transition. The research employs a model-based analysis to evaluate the cost of electricity production across countries with divergent environmental, social and governance (ESG) strategies, reflected in their carbon pricing mechanisms….

Decarbonizing Russia: Lessons from global carbon pricing practices
Abstract Climate change mitigation increasingly relies on carbon pricing as a core policy tool. This study investigates the applicability of such mechanisms within the Russian context, given the country’s heavy fossil fuel dependence and evolving energy landscape. A mixed-method approach is used, combining case studies (EU ETS, Nordic carbon taxes, Sakhalin pilot) with scenario modeling based…
