Energy Science and Technology

This Section on Energy Science and Technology invites high quality unpublished multidisciplinary research and review articles on state-of-the-art energy technology. The primary focus is on recently developed energy technology which is clean, sustainable and highly efficient, along with traditional fossil fuel based energy resources. More specifically, we encourage articles in the areas of energy conversion and efficiency, renewable and sustainable energy sources, including their applications, energy storage, and harvesting, energy transportation, smart grid, internet of energy, etc., covering all three major facets of energy in generation, transmission, and distribution. Applied Sciences in general and this Section on Energy Science and Technology in particular offers a high-quality peer review followed by a rapid publication decision. Download Section Flyer
