Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Climate change and environmental problems are forcing all countries in the world to work together to reverse the situation. Policies worldwide are attempting to minimize the negative environmental impacts of economic activities to the greatest possible extent, since this is key to detaching economic growth from environmental degradation. Furthermore, the energy sector is one of the main industries responsible for greenhouse gas emissions; hence, it is under pressure to take effective and urgent measures to reduce its environmental impact.
This Special Issue will contribute to a more comprehensive understanding of the connections between energy, the environment and the economy.
Topics to be covered in this Special Issue include, but are not limited to, the following:
- The environmental impacts and sustainability of the energy transition;
- Renewable energy sources;
- Energy efficiency;
- Impacts on energy markets and energy prices;
- The stability of energy supply and energy security;
- Demand-side management;
- Energy and the circular economy.
