Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The growth of global energy demand for energy is gradually increasing. However, due to the global warming and greenhouse gas emission effect, the need of a climate change mitigation is mandatory and urgent targeted actions are required now more than ever before to recover from the impact caused by the COVID-19 crisis on the sustainability.

The Special Issue "Contributions of Women in Renewable Energy" aims to illustrate the impact of women in the field of energy and specifically in the field of renewable energy, its supply conversion, storage, and rational energy consumption. The objective is to provide insight into the various possibilities to produce sustainable energy, the theoretical and practical solutions for thermal energy, photovoltaic solar energy, wind energy, biomass, hydropower and more. The issue covers studies, analysis and review on the recent solutions for renewable energy sources, storage, the design of the specified energy systems and the transition to decentralized grid, along with their deployment impact on the climate change.

We welcome fundamental and applied studies about renewable energy and the topics of interest include but is not limited to:

  • wind energy;
  • hydro power;
  • wave power;
  • tidal power;
  • clean and renewable energy;
  • renewable energy utilization;
  • energy storage & harvesting;
  • energy and environment;
  • ocean thermal energy conversion;
  • photovoltaic and solar energy systems;
  • energy use and consumption (energy use forecasting, energy use and savings, energy use efficiency, energy use and gas emissions);
  • power and energy engineering (energy grid, power converter technologies, electricity market and power system economics, power generation, transmission and distribution, energy-efficient technologies, intelligent monitoring and outage management, fault monitoring and predictive maintenance, new energy materials and devices);

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Applied Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.

Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue

  • Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
  • Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
  • Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
  • External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
  • e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
