IJGEI provides an international forum and authoritative source of information on renewable and non-renewable energy resources, energy-economic systems, energy and environment, international energy policy issues, technological innovation and new energy sources. It envisages the use of analytical tools and concepts from multifarious disciplines to address concerns for ecological, social, economic and political dimensions of sustainability. IJGEI seeks to establish an effective channel for communication between policymakers, government agencies, concerned citizens, consumer bodies, industry, public authorities and members of academic/research institutions.
Topics covered include
- Renewable/non-renewable energy resources
- Global limits, fossil energy, nuclear energy technology/safety/waste
- Economic development, market forces/world trade, transition countries
- Assessments of energy systems/projects/policies
- Energy conservation, buildings, transportation/mobility, agriculture
- Ecological economics analyses, thermodynamic concepts
- Entropic irreversibility, Second Law efficiency, exergy analysis
- Energy accounting, "greened" national accounts
- Uncertainty/risk, data quality issues for modelling/policy evaluation
- Moral/political/scientific foundations for public decision-making
- Industrial ecology, business strategies and sustainable development
- Energy options in climate policy
- Governance, Agenda 21, public sector strategies, geopolitics
- North-South knowledge exchange, capacity building
- Education, public information, technical training, employment
Objectives
IJGEI was initiated in 1990 by UNESCO. It is currently produced with the cooperation of the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (Energy Division), and the International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA). It seeks to promote an innovative research agenda in support of international cooperation - including regional (as well as global) perspectives such as Europe, the Mediterranean, India, East Asia, the South Pacific, Latin America. Its interdisciplinary scope will support a wide reflection that can help decision makers and all citizens in the implementation of energy policies for sustainable development.
Readership
Professionals, academics, researchers and policy makers.

A rare take on green metal volatility
10 September, 2024
Research in the International Journal of Global Energy Issues has looked at the volatility of rare earth metals traded on the London Stock Exchange. The work used an advanced statistical model known as gjrGARCH(1,1) to follow and predict market turbulence. It was found to be the best fit for predicting rare earth price volatility and offers important insights into the stability of these crucial resources. Auguste Mpacko Priso of Paris-Saclay University, France and the Open Knowledge Higher Institute (OKHI), Cameroon, with OKHI colleague explain that the rare earths, are a group of 17 metals* with unique and useful chemical properties. They are essential to high-tech products and industry, particularly electric vehicle batteries and renewable energy infrastructure. They are also used in other electronic components, lasers, glass, magnetic materials, and as components of catalysts for a range of industrial processes. As the global transition to reduced-carbon and even zero-carbon technologies moves forward, there is an urgent need to understand the pricing of rare earth metals, as they are such an important part of the technology we need for that environment friendly future [...]
