Landowner Response to a Rural Appalachian Natural Gas Pipeline Project
… the 303-mile path of a rural Appalachian natural gas project, which I identify as a site of energy transmission rather than production. I use social representation theory to elicit factors unrecognized in prior research. It provides a framework for the process by which resident rural landowners …

Dual-Interval Optimization Modeling for the Planning of Natural Gas Pipeline Systems
Natural gas (NG) pipeline network, a major mode of transportation, requires optimized operations and management in order to ensure stable and efficient gas supplies. To provide such optimal solutions, pipeline systems modeling is a widely used method. The interactions among upstream, midstream, and …

Natural gas pipeline politics in and around the European Union Modelling – based assessment of Russian and European strategies
… last 20 years, the growing reliance of the EU on gas imports increased the vulnerability of the energy system to supply shocks. Natural gas is difficult to substitute in the short term due to the high share of gas in space heating and electricity generation in most of the EU Member States. Russia …
