In conditions of economic and political instability, when unpredictability affects business, the need for security, including financial becomes particularly important. our study, we address this issue, with main objective comparing evaluating security small medium-sized renewable energy companies in Poland according to sustainable development goals. order study describe relationships between selected groups companies, ratios were used, canonical variate analysis. The liquidity surveyed indicated a low level terms ability meet short-term liabilities. profitability operations was did not contribute improvement most companies. lowest return on assets found group biogas plants. Higher solar power plants, those system installations. Solar plants also characterized by high total debt rapid turnover comparison other studied results show that enterprises is low, which may be threat future.

The rapid urbanization and technological advancements of the recent decades have increased need for efficient sustainable transportation solutions. This study examines acceptance smart systems (STSs) among residents in Polish cities explores impact these on energy-saving behaviors. Using extended Unified Theory Acceptance Use Technology (UTAUT2) model, which includes propensity to save energy, this research seeks understand determinants STS adoption. primary was conducted using Computer-Assisted Web Interviewing (CAWI). sample controlled gender place residence. A 471 individuals meeting criteria living a city with over 200,000 solutions Poland were selected from panel. SmartPLS 4 software used analyze collected data. findings reveal that energy significantly influences perceived usefulness, ease use, social influence, hedonic motivation toward STSs. Perceived usefulness use found be strong predictors intention STSs, while costs had negative it. also identified moderating role personal innovativeness mitigating cost concerns. These insights underscore importance emphasizing conservation benefits user-friendly features promoting concludes aligning innovations user motivations can enhance adoption solutions, contributing smarter more urban environments.

In response to disturbances in the European energy market due Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, Europe had strengthen its strategic resilience and reduce reliance on Russian gas imports by conserving energy, producing clean diversifying sources. A crucial aspect this effort is assessing security, which serves as an indicator summarizing various aspects development. This study evaluates system’s ability continuously, economically, environmentally safely meet consumer needs 28 economies. research employs non-linear (piecewise linear) normalization multiplicative convolution method, analyzing data from 2000 2021. Critical components security examined include resource supply, availability, consumption, compensability, efficiency, safety, innovativeness. The findings indicate that most EU countries have sufficient-to-moderate levels security. histogram depicting distribution index reveals innovation within a country’s framework has lowest scores. indicates insufficient activity developing implementing new technologies modern transportation consumption methods. Consequently, highlights inadequate effectiveness current transition measures offers recommendations for policymakers based these findings.

This work deals with the effects of a non-electrochemically deposited copper- or nickel–phosphorus-based coating on resulting resistance traditional X42 grade pipeline steel against hydrogen embrittlement (HE). The susceptibility to HE was determined by evaluation index (HEI) from results conventional room-temperature tensile tests using cylindrical specimens. Altogether, three individual material systems were studied, namely uncoated (X42) and two coated steels, specifically either copper-based (X42_Cu) (X42_Ni-P). HEI values calculated as relative changes in mechanical properties corresponding non-hydrogenated electrochemically hydrogen-precharged test conditions. Both applied coatings considerably improved investigated terms decreasing related yield stress, ultimate strength, reduction area. In contrast, hydrogenation both had detrimental value total elongation, which resulted an increase value. behavior likely earlier onset necking during straining due strain localizations induced coatings’ surface imperfections. findings fractographic observations indicated that studied acted like protective barriers permeation.
