Power Couple? AI Growth and Renewable Energy Investment

arXiv:2603. 26678v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: AI and renewable energy are increasingly framed as a "power couple," on the premise that surging AI demand will accelerate clean-energy investment, yet concerns persist that AI will entrench fossil-fuel carbon lock-in.

Toward Explainable and Policy-Aware AI for Carbon Credit Price Prediction: A Research Framework for Emerging Carbon Markets

The paper proposes EPA-CarbonNet, a six‑layer model that fuses carbon market price series with policy text via cross‑attention and calibrated intervals, aiming to provide explainable, policy‑aware predictions for carbon credit prices. It evaluates the approach on eleven years of daily S&P carbon index data, finding that a simple random walk outperforms the model on five‑day RMSE, while the model achieves the best directional accuracy at 58.6%. The study identifies ten recurring gaps in current research and releases all code, data, and results publicly.
