However, international trade can confuse the accounting. Moving a factory across the border… أنور قاسم
الإنتاجية والتنويع الاقتصادي How coal fueled global growth and slowed energy productivity gains in the early 21st century هورهي بلازكوز It is common for decision makers and media to conflate the oil price with the price of energy. High crude oil prices are taken as signals of energy scarcity. By contrast, and perhaps misleadingly, low crude oil prices are perceived… هورهي بلازكوز
Coal: Modeling a complex fuel source Coal represented 30% of worldwide primary energy consumption in 2013 and would become the most consumed fuel through 2040, under the International Energy Agency (IEA) Current Policies Scenario. However, even in countries with policies designed to curb its supply and…
