Abstract

CO2 emissions are reduced by cutting fossil energy use. Matters on carbon emission efficiency or low carbon education can be delivered through educational processes. This study aims to describe articles in terms of total publications, citations, authors, countries, journals, publishers, and co-authorship network using most frequently used keywords and determine what is to be researched in the future. Bibliometrics was used to review articles in the Scopus database (2003–2023). The PRISMA model was used for data collection, and VOSviewer and Harzing’s Publish or Perish were employed for data analysis. A total of 917 articles were identified, and 456 were selected. The results of the study showed that there has been an increase in the number of publications. Most of the studies were conducted in China, the USA, and the UK. Journal of Cleaner Production and Elsevier Ltd have been the most productive journal and publisher. The most frequently used keywords in research was “carbon”. Within the period, several keywords such as “low carbon”, “higher education”, and “education” have been unrelated and understudied. It was found that the “low-carbon” policy has been implemented in the forms of energy policy, engineering education, and energy efficiency. Monitoring of “carbon emissions” has been conducted in the form of carbon footprint, strengthened by controls such as controls of “energy use”, “energy efficiency”, “energy consumption”, and “carbon footprint”. “Emissions control” needs to be linked with “education”. Based on the findings, further studies on “energy efficiency” and “carbon footprint” combined with “education” are needed.
