Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Building integrated energy systems are increasingly central to the global transition toward low-carbon and sustainable developments because building sectors account for about 40% of the total global energy usage. Realizing green power supply, reducing carbon emissions in building areas and improving the comprehensive energy efficiency of energy systems through renewable energy supply systems and high-efficiency equipments have become vital measures for the deep decarbonization of building energy consumption. This Special Issue presents recent research on the design, control, optimization, and performance evaluation of building integrated energy systems involving energy supply, storage, and consumption, to develop resilient and sustainable low- and zero-carbon building integrated energy systems.
This Special Issue, “Low-Carbon Building Integrated Energy Systems: Design, Control, Optimization, and Performance Evaluation” in Buildings welcomes excellent original contributions and high-impact works, with the goal of building energy conservation, building energy efficiency improvements, and carbon reduction.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.
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-anonymized peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Buildings 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 2600 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.
