Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The global imperative to reduce carbon emissions and mitigate climate change has thrust the energy transition into international discourse. This paradigm shift presents significant opportunities and poses complex challenges, profoundly influencing market dynamics, financial stability, and economic policy frameworks. This Special Issue, "Economic and Financial Transformations in the Global Energy Transition: Market Mechanisms, Systemic Risks, and Adaptive Policy Frameworks", serves as a critical platform for policymakers, scientists, academics, researchers, and industry practitioners to exchange cutting-edge knowledge and empirical evidence on these pivotal aspects. Beyond its technological revolution, the energy transition encompasses intricate interactions, interdependencies, and interconnectedness among markets, financial institutions, and renewable energy policies and regulations. Integrating renewable energy sources into the global energy mix fundamentally disrupts traditional market structures, catalysing the emergence of innovative pricing mechanisms and novel risk profiles. Understanding these systemic changes is crucial for developing robust financial strategies and crafting effective policy responses to facilitate a smooth, equitable, and sustainable transition. This Special Issue aims to shed light on the following:
- The evolving dynamics of energy markets in the transition era;
- Emerging financial instruments and risk management strategies;
- The interplay between renewable energy policies and market forces;
- Economic implications of the transition on various sectors and stakeholders;
- Innovative policy frameworks to support and accelerate the transition.
By fostering a multidisciplinary dialogue, we seek to contribute to the development of integrated approaches that can effectively navigate the complexities of the global energy transition while balancing economic growth, financial stability, and environmental sustainability.
