Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The rapid development of the social economy is accompanied by continuous growth in energy demand, such as in the heavy industry, agriculture, and tourism sectors. Meanwhile, large-scale energy consumption in the short term has increased the risk to the energy supply and ecological safety. This has contributed to the exploration and exploitation of energy supply risk management, carbon emission reduction, and innovation of renewable energy technologies, aiming to resolve the bottlenecks in energy and environmental economics.

This Special Issue aims to present and disseminate the most recent advances in the theory, design, modelling, and application of all types of energy and environmental economics.

Topics of interest for publication include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • All aspects of energy and environmental economics;
  • Energy and environmental application in industries such as agriculture and the tourism sector;
  • Energy supply chain management;
  • Energy economic risks;
  • Sustainable development;
  • Big-data analytics in energy economics;
  • Energy finance and investment;
  • Environmental governance;
  • Financing de-carbonization in cities or regions;
  • Pathways to carbon neutral;
  • Renewable energy technological innovation;
  • Energy efficiency and rebound effects.
