These concepts are linked as complementary low-carbon energy strategies within decarbonization frameworks, as evidenced by their joint inclusion in firm capacity studies [1], potential synergistic applications in negative emission technologies [2], and shared policy support through the Energy Policy Act [3]. Furthermore, they are frequently compared as competing or collaborative investment options for greenhouse gas mitigation [4] and are both advocated as essential components of a diverse energy portfolio [5].
